Photo Of Mum Breastfeeding On Toilet Goes Viral

We all know that eating on the loo is a definite no-no, so surely that applies to breastfeeding, too? Apparently not in one mum’s household, where it appears to be the norm...

A pic of a mum sat on the toilet while breastfeeding her baby has taken the web by storm.

The photo, uploaded to Life of Dad’s Facebook page, has received a huge mix of comments, from those outraged at the unhyenic aspect of it to others who’ve called the mum in question just your average multi-tasking mother.

At first glance, you might think the baby is leaning on her mum’s elbow. But no, it appears to definitely be the boob.  

While we can probably all agree that the toilet is not the ideal place to feed a baby, anyone who has got a young child will appreciate that they don’t let you have even half a second to yourself – even when you pay a visit to the bathroom.

In fact, if any mum’s managed to find a way to go to the loo without their child looking on, please share it.

And when babies and toddlers want a feed, they want a feed. They don’t care if they’re in the bathroom or on the bus. Plus, if this isn’t a photo of a mum who’s comfortable breastfeeding (and sharing it with the world), then what is?

With the huge amount of controversy surrounding breastfeeding photos, we frankly need more mums to feel at ease sharing their own nursing snapshots online.

A large number of celebrity mums have joined the breastfeeding selfie, or ‘brelfie’ as it’s dubbed, movement with famous faces such as Miranda Kerr, Doutzen Kroes and Gwen Stefani happily uploading breastfeeding photos to their Instagram pages.
