Default Is your husband supportive of your breastfeeding?

My husband is amazingly supportive in every respect but one...feeding in public. Tonight we had to pull into a parking lot during a road trip so I could nurse. I parked far away from other cars. We couldn't find a spare blanket other than my toddler's lovey, which is gross. So I just wanted to nurse without one. I wasn't flashing the world my boobs, you know, but my husband kept insisting I use my toddler's blanket. This isn't the first time he's pressured me like that. I'm all for discretion, but a lot of times covering up with a blanket isn't even enough for him when we're out in public.

I think that probably is due to him thinking that a bunch of other men would be getting peeks at his wife's chest. Even if no one is around, guys are strange

Feeding in public is also one of the things that scares me coz it just keeps me uncomfortable to be showing off my boobs in public so I usually bring a bottle of milk with me as my babies usually have mixed feeding.

I always went back to the car if I had to breastfeed. Maybe cause I had two babies (twins) and I just couldn't fathom how to feed two of them at the same time on a bench in the mall!
