Alyssa Milano Shares Sweet Breastfeeding Pic Before Appearing on The Talk

There is such a thing as modesty….people have to use the bathroom also, as nature demands, doesn’t mean people want to watch.

I can’t wrap my head around all this “in your face” breastfeeding thing that has taken flight.

Women have supplied nutrition to their young via this method for 1000’s of years, it’s not new, you are oppressed, so just do it and stop broadcasting it. I couldn’t imagine my grandmother doing anything like this yet she did breastfeed her whole brood, 9 children.

Ugh…enough already!! Put your boobs away and quit trying to be some attention-seeking pioneer. There’s such a thing as modesty, Alyssa. I love these moms that say ‘if you don’t like it, don’t look’. Sorry, but when a woman flashes her boobs out there for all to see, people are going to look. You don’t want them looking? Then breastfeed in PRIVATE like any normal person would.

Would she whip it out if there wasn’t a kid attached to it? I am all for breastfeeding, but does everyone have to see the bare boobs?

I have breastfed all of my children and I am not offended by I prefer to not nurse around others just out of respect for them however I find it ridiculous that people find breastfeeding immodest with all the boobs hanging out all over the place on tv, in ads, anywhere you go with women and cleavage. Crappy double standard since I bet most people who take issue with the pic above don’t take issue with passing victoria secret in the mall with all its sensual boob pics!!

This is utterly ridiculous. I am not offended by breast feeding, but I see no reason why women feel the need to post pictures, thus using their child as a prop in an effort to stroke their “I’m-a-fantastic-mom” ego. Pooing is natural, but I’d rather not have people posting pics of their bowel movements.

alyssa is such a good mom, and th baby is so cute ❤

Are you people serious?!? Did you really compare feeding a child to deficating in public!?!? (Which infants also do in public without offending anyone…by the way) Would you be offended by someone daresay…showing their legs while walking…or having the audacity to not cover their eyes while looking!?!? Breasts are for feeding a child…it’s their sole purpose…just because you prefer they are only exposed in underwear ads doesn’t mean you are right…even in Muslim cultures where women are expected to cover their bodies on a regular basis…it is considered less offensive to breastfeed than here in a country where we thrive on forcing unnecessary nudity at people…breastfeeding isn’t unnecessary nudity…babies need to eat and their mothers should be forced to hide while do so…

Rude.

The makeup artist shouldn’t have to see this. Put a Bebe au Lait on or a blanket on your shoulder. is that too much to ask??? Some people don’t want to see your baps in public.

Way to go Alyssa!! If it’s OK for Kim K., Beyonce and countless others to run around practically topless for the sake of “fashion”, then I say there’s no problem with breastfeeding your baby whenever, wherever you need to.

I wonder if Alyssa Milano knows she significantly part jewish. She has the “joker-like” smile that is particular to the biological jew. And Milano is an obvious jewish name, much like Romano. (Both being made up last names based on Italian cities rather than genuine family names. It would be like having the last name “Newyorker” or “Portlander”).

To Angela: Just how do you know she whipped out her breast infront of the make up artist? How about she started breast feeding her daughter first and then had the guy come in? I think it’s beautiful to see mothers breastfeeding their child openly. I wish I could have with my own children.

rm, posting pictures of yourself breast feeding seems less a bonding act between mother and child and more attention-seeking on the part of the mother.

Maybe her daughter will not tolerate a cover. My daughter could not stand to be covered up while she nursed. She wanted to be looking at me. She posts pictures to normalize breastfeeding since so many people think its wrong. Even though Pope has said let mother’s nurse!

I love it! I’ve never felt comfortable breastfeeding in public because people do see it as disturbing. I have to pump before I go anywhere and its a pain!

I nursed all three of my girls (way before social media) and never thought for one second to take a pic. Why is it necessary?

Maybe she’ll lose some weight. Maybe she’ll realize she isn’t all that unique re: having a baby. Maybe she’ll get off PR Allstars.

The makeup artist is gay. I doubt he cares or is even attracted to a woman’s breast, so the point that he is offended is mute!

The breastfeeding doesn’t bother me. It’s the brush full of makeup just above her face. I’d worry about something getting in the baby’s eye. Also, some children can have allergies to makeup and having it dropped on her face could cause a skin reaction. That is why I wish she’d have a blanket over her, to protect the baby. I have a pair of breasts of my own so seeing hers is no matter to me.

Really everyone?! Why get so worked up about this photo or any other breastfeeding pic? I’ve nursed 2 beautiful boys and have never had a rude comment made towards me in public while breastfeeding. Mostly I get smiles from fellow moms. Why should she cover up? Most babies can’t stand it once they are over 6 months old. The want to see the world around them, and have fresh air. It’s ok for magazines to post pics of Kim Kardashians greasy rear end right on the cover or for MTV to play videos of nearly naked women gyrating? What a double standard! I say BRAVO to women like Alyssa for doing their part to #normalizebreastfeeding, and to those if you comparing it to having a dump…well I challenge u to eat your next meal in a stinky, germy public bathroom, and stick a cover over yourself while you’re at it!

I choose to look away from anything ‘offensive’ that doesn’t directly affect or concern me. There are many worse things to see than a woman feeding her child, but if breasts offend you, please look away!

I don’t have an issue with her not covering up while breastfeeding, my issue is the posting pics on social media simply to show the world “hey, I’m breastfeeding!”. Again, breastfeeding is only going to be truly accepted as normal when everyone realizes that it simply isn’t that big of a deal for a woman to show part of a breast in public if she’s feeding her child. Posting these types of pics makes it a big deal and actually works against #normalizebreastfeeding because 99% of breastfeeding women just want to feed their children and NOT call attention to themselves doing it. To combat ignorance about breastfeeding, or anything, you have to understand where it’s coming from and be able to counter ignorance with thoughtful discussion, NOT sensationalism.

I find statements assuming those who think posting full on shots of breastfeeding is less than appropriate, also think half-naked dancers gyrating on MTV is great, love Victoria’s Secret advertising, and think everyone is just fine with boobs hanging out of bikinis so skimpy you just wish they hadn’t run out of fabric when they did! Those assumptions are ridiculous!

I loved BF, it was a wonderful time and my baby never took a bottle, ever, so I was not pumping or subbing with formula. I also used a lightweight baby blanket as a cover when I nursed in public, or in front of guests in my home. I was mature enough to figure out from the get-go that using a cover up didn’t mean wrapping the baby’s head tightly in a blanket and making the baby uncomfortable. It was lunch time, not playtime, and she got down to business with a receiving blanket loosely draped from my shoulder past her shoulder. Not difficult, not miserable for the baby, and not uncomfortable for those around me. I had nothing to prove to anyone, because all I cared about was feeding my baby, so I made certain I was comfortable, baby was, and so was anyone else around….. As for feeding the baby in the bathroom, why is that necessary? You can usually sit with your back to the crowd and focus on your baby, unless, of course, your goal is to fan up some sort of “discussion” to show how much better you “get it” than any one else does.

Another point of the “let it all hang out, I’m just feeding the baby” group is that breasts have only one purpose in the world…feeding a baby. Newsflash! Everyone doesn’t have babies, they may not breastfeed, and seriously?? Breasts are definitely part of any woman’s sexual relationship and they are supposed to be! Of course they are used to feed babies, but they are an integral part of how we feel about our femininity, our appeal to our partner, and even a part of how we respond sexually

And for those who seem to think most of those saying a coverup or moving to the side of the restaurant, instead of being in the middle of the room, are spending the rest of their time looking at pornography while wearing string bikinis…not everyone is a 2-faced twit who is trying to force mothers of young babies to stay home; some of us are mothers who are BF right now, but who recognize you can lovingly BF without “lights, camera, action!” and a brass band every time you do it outside your home!!

Geeez!! Why don’t you just put your TITS in the man’s face!! No modesty!

Nothing wrong with breastfeeding, it’s nature thing for centuries!
