Breastfeeding in public in Australia

So refreshing see the normal activity of breastfeeding babies in public totally acceptable here. This family enjoyed their meal together outside a cafe in Husskison, and baby Brookejoined in too! And why not?

I asked the family if I could take a photograph to send to Anna and Sue who could then use it to support and protect breastfeeding in the UK. We all had a lovely chat about the Australian breastfeeding culture. Most units work towards the BFI standards, which I learnt was part funded by the Australian College of Midwives! Hurray!
