Breastfeeding ban: Georgia mother is told she can’t nurse her baby at waterpark, sparking debate
Fox News
A Georgia mother who was recently asked to leave a waterpark because she was breastfeeding her 11-month-old son shared her story with Fox News Digital. Experts shared insights.
"My son is 11 months old and when it was getting to be his nap time, like I do every visit, I got in the Lazy River to nurse him to sleep," she wrote. "He likes motion to sleep, he sleeps well in the car or swing, so he will also sleep in the Lazy River." "Emotional bonding is another reason many mothers choose to breastfeed." "I left crying because I was told I couldn’t feed my child." "Moms are allowed to breastfeed in public. Others do not have a right to ask a mother to leave a public space while breastfeeding." Melissa Rudy is health editor and a member of the lifestyle team at Fox News Digital.
But the woman shared that a lifeguard at Rigby's Water World in Warner Robins, Georgia, told her she could not breastfeed in the water.
