 ::In So. California I feel that there is a mixed reaction to public breastfeeding.  I personally have always felt comfortable nursing anywhere, but I know many mothers who cover themselves up and their child with nursing tents.  While, a friend of mine was nursing her son while getting a pedicure and the manager asked her to leave.  Several women did a 'nurse-in' in front of the store.  I am not sure people are aware that it is public law that women can nurse in public. I think if people were educated on the importance of breastfeeding they may see it in a different light! (
