I am an intelligent, independent woman.

I don't need to be told how I can make others

more comfortable  when I nurse my baby. 

I don't feel responsible for the comfort of the general public.

I am responsible first to my family, my children. No more patronizing, shame-inducing discussions about what kind of cover-up works  best to hide breastfeeding  or how to make

onlookers more comfortable.

 

I deserve to be supported when I do what is right for my baby, not told I need  to hide it or cover it up

or take it elsewhere.

That's what Nurse Here Now is all about:

Empowering breastfeeding moms to nurse wherever we are,

 whenever our babies need it,  in spite of the fact that our culture would like

 to pressure us into thinking it is a shameful and impolite act.

We know that breastfeeding is not a shameful act that should be hidden,

it is a normal everyday parenting activity, and we are passing

 this message on to all nursing mothers.

We won't allow "peer pressure" from society to change our thought and behavior and cause

us shame and embarrassment. We will do what is best for our babies and ourselves. 

We will reject the pressure to make breastfeeding invisible, we will reject

 the oversexed idea

that breastfeeding uses "private parts", we will reject the disapproval

 and let it roll off our backs like water off a duck. We will empower ourselves

 to reject adopting the inaccurate views of our culture.

 We know better.

We will nurse. Here. Now.

Wherever and whenever that may be.
