I breastfed all three of my kids, always careful to be discreet(this was 15-20 years ago, when breastfeeding - at least in the States - was MUCH less supported). The worst? Was sitting in the ladies' bathroom - a fucking BATHROOM - because there wasn't a lounge or anywhere else I could sit, and having women make comments. For christ's sake, my kid is hungry and I'm not sitting in the middle of the stupid store.
ARGH. Still angry, after all these years.
(And, no a bottle doesn't always work. My youngest refused a bottle. Went straight from breast to cup. Was a pain only because I couldn't even leave him w/ my husband)
I voted for Scots. To an American ear, a Scots accent is distinctly different (and sometimes very difficult to understand, depending on the speaker).
