All you men!

I had two babies. I breast-fed them on demand. I somehow managed to NOT nurse them while I was out at restaurants or grocery shopping or at Kmart or any other damn place. The babies slept on most excursions. If I was at a restaurant and my infant needed feeding, I think I would go out to
my car--not because it would be "wrong" to breastfeed in public but for my own comfort. I wouldn't want people staring at me.

YMMV. I didn't feel especially lucky--when my infants were subjected to a lot of stimulus (the shopping mall, a restaurant) they dealt with it by sleeping. It was all too much for them so they ignored it.
