<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nWe were all treated to the photo of the Mom breastfeeding her four-year-old on the cover of Time a few weeks back and now, every time I open my inbox someone has sent us this article<\/a> about breast feeding in uniform.<\/p>\n The photo is part of a local breastfeeding awareness campaign by Mom2Mom of Fairchild Air Force Base, a support group launched in January by Crystal Scott, a military spouse and mother of three. Among the intimate close-ups of smiling young mothers cuddling their adorable babies, the images of the two airmen stand out.<\/p>\n “People are comparing breastfeeding in uniform to urinating and defecating in uniform. They’re comparing it to the woman who posed in “Playboy” in uniform [in 2007]” Scott told Yahoo! Shine in an interview. “We never expected it to be like this.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n Well, I think it’s all just so much BS. How often is a mother going to breast feed her children in uniform outside of her home? It’s not like they take their kids to work or take them to the field. Not that the two airmen in the picture know what the field looks like anyway.<\/p>\n Both sides are overplaying this issue – the mothers are not going to whip out a breast in formation and start feeding her kids right there in front of the unit. And the two in the photo, I’m sure think they’re doing something brave and being controversial, because breastfeeding in public is supposed to be some liberating act. I’m just posting it so everyone will stop sending me the link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
