In response, she launched a breastfeeding support blog.
When Australian mom Ashley Rogers needed to nurse her son at a shopping mall, she carefully chose a secluded spot away from the crowds where she, her baby and her seven-year-old daughter could have some semblance of privacy. Still, she found herself at the center of one man’s bewildering anger.
. Rogers, rightly furious, told him she was just feeding her 4-month-old son, but he kept berating her, repeating the word “disgusting” over and over and shouting at her to cover up. The scene would have been upsetting for any mom, but for Rogers, it was particularly painful, given her baby’s health issues. Her son Archie, who had to be induced at 37 weeks, had been having trouble gaining weight—at 4 months old, he was the size of a newborn—so it was even more essential for her to nurse him on demand. Like so many women, she struggled to breastfeed, and almost gave up several times.
