:) Boston Museum of Science

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 

We spent the day at the Boston Museum of Science the other day and I asked a staff member if they had a family area for changing/nursing.  She said that they did have changing areas in all the restrooms and that there was a seating area in the Discovery Center (which was not a closed off area) with a rocking chair, a boppy, and other seating that is comfortable for nursing, but then reminded me that of course I was free to nurse wherever my baby and I were comfortable throughout the museum.  It made us happy to be treated so kindly!

Yes! We go to the MOS fairly frequently and have never had any issues and we've nursed everywhere in that building!

 

My favorite place to nurse (if it isn't busy) is the little stadium seating room where you can watch the Tamarin Monkeys.  Either that or on the benches by the large, ball dropping machine-thingy (I wish I could remember the name!) on the basement level :)

Yes they do I was in there with DD and it was awesome!!

Yay for them. We were there during the winter when there was an MC Escher exhibit. there was NO ONE in the room the exhibit was in and a nice big couch where I nursed DD for nearly half an hour. It was fabulous and quiet and lovely...:)

Yay for the MoS! We love it there, though I've never thought about using that chair for nursing, I'm too busy chasing around my big kids!

Oh that's wonderful!  I've nursed my then 2y/o on the bench in front of the gift shop (it was the only thing I could do to distract her from the cool stuff at the store) and it wasn't an issue and I've seen many a nursing mom in the cafeteria.  I love that place :)

Wonderful!! It sounds like we need to move to Boston then smile.gif Oregon doesn't have places like this anywhere...at least none that I've seen. It's nice to know that the whole country hasn't gone dellusional with secluded, isolated closed off nursing rooms, lol. So tired of those!
