Mind your own business!

Why when I had a baby did my boobs and what I choose to do with them become a matter of public discussion??

My baby is 9 months old and I still get asked whether he is breast fed or bottle fed? I don't see how it is anyone's business but mine and my partners. Do I go around asking what brand of tampons you use? Or what brand of condoms? Or which contraceptive you use? It is your body and therefore your choice. Leave me alone to make mine.

But just so everyone is aware YES I do breast feed my child, and I will continue to do so untill me and my child feel it is the right time to stop, and NO it is none of anyone else's business!!

Oh and might I ask to all those nosey enough to enquire about the way I choose to feed my child, what would the response be if I said I bottle fed? Would you then feel it was your right to give me a lecture? Are you going to be one of the people who gives me dirty looks as my child grows and I continue to choose to breastfeed him in public?

I appreiciate the encouagement from other mothers when the see me feeding, but I don't feel I should have to justify my decision to random strangers who choose to make it their business.
