re: What does a "lactation consultant" do?

So they should go run and hide in the bathroom or cover themselves with a blanket

We can debate that issue, though I do think bathrooms for any sort feeding seems like a bad thing.

so as not to offend your delicate sensibilities?

Let me start by saying the poster you were seem to specifically addressing people who post these pics on FB, which does seem to be more about attention seeking (but I guess the way peopl always post food, they may be starting the infant out down that trail ).

The point of going to a private place/covering up does have more to do with what other people fell uncomfortable with but that is true of most social norms and it is not a bad thing. And as I said in a previous post, adolescent boys everywhere applaud your dedication to whipping out a boob in publc (not to mention adolescent minded men, many examples of which are in full display on this site)

You and all those like you are complete zeros.

And this comes off as the breastfeeding Nazi attitude. "If you don't agree with my opinion, your worthless."

Hopefully that is not true about you, but it does come off that way.

Always thought that might be job I will take when I'm retired -

The lactation consultant I had the pleasure of dealing with while my daughter was in the NICU was quite a kook. It was basically a job where she could profess her opinions, not facts, to vulnerable new mothers. I just pretended to listen to her bullshite opinions, nod and smile, then did what I knew to be best for my daughter. That's the best way to deal with those kind of bitches.

Seriously why do you hate nurses? Any thread where there is a mention of nurses (nurse practitioners, etc) you come in and spew your venom calling all the nurses bitches.
