Babies don't care if mom is in a church or restaurant or car when it is time to eat. A screaming, hungry baby is a much worse distraction than a contentedly feeding one, in my opinion.

I'm of the opinion that the human body is not something to be ashamed of, and that breast feeding a baby is a perfectly natural function. That said, I don't think it hurts anyone to place a light covering over the shoulder to shield the baby and breast from the gawking of those nearby. I'm not about to go hide in a bathroom or alley but I am willing to use custom clothing or cloths to keep the function semi-private.

Personally, I could care less if a mom wants to whip it out in full view and feed. Anyone that thinks this is 'disgusting' or a 'turn on' has some personal issues that have nothing to do with feeding a baby.

By the way, my 14 month old had her first tooth come in at 4 1/2 months and had 9 teeth by 12 months.
