A nursing mother has caused quite a stir on social media after videos of her breastfeeding her child in public went viral.
The woman, who seems to be advocating for breastfeeding to be normalized in public places, films herself breastfeeding her child while shopping at grocery stores, restaurants, park, and other places, and shares them on TikTok with the hashtag, “#Normalizebreastfeeding”.
The woman’s action have sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some criticizing her for using her child to chase clout online, while others defended her, saying there is nothing wrong with breastfeeding in public but it should be done discretely.

An Instagram user @lagosmealprepsociety wrote, “This isn’t really about the baby being hungry, mama is simply an exhibitionist; you can tell from the way she’s dressed. If it was about a hungry baby, she could have sat comfortably in some corner of the store and nursed discreetly, but instead she’s gallivanting around the whole store. 😏”
