That's an awesome ad that I only wish they would show in the US.

As an aside, a guy that used to work where I work would eat his lunch in the john frequently. In fact, he would "kill two birds with one stone" as it were. uuuuugghh.

THAT IS AWESOME!! I wish they would show that in the US too!

What a fabulous ad! It is what so many of us say (or plan to say) when challenged about NIP. It is great to see it on TV.

*is proud* I can't wait til I get back home to the breastfeeding friendly public! The reception of public breastfeeding here in the USA was one of the things that hit me hardest when we moved here, and to make matters worse, my MIL was someone who formula fed from day one because her dr said it was better.. and she still thinks it is better to formula feed in public than breastfeed! :

She thought she was doing me a favour when she advised DH that I could pump and bottle feed breastmilk if I was so against formula! She didn't see how that totally missed the point of breastfeeding being convenient!

that is great - and sad to me an aussie now living here in the US where the rest of the world is educated to believe that the US is so far ahead of everyone else and it is not - sad because it has the power and numbers to be - you will be really ticked to know that i dont know a mall in Australia that i have been to without a BF area next to the baby care stations - oh well, the more I put BF in peolpes faces naybe the more it will be accepted instead of those ugly comments and looks I get!
