No one should feel uncomfortable while breastfeeding, but infuriatingly, there's still a stigma when it comes to moms nursing in public. Some people think breastfeeding is unnatural or even sexual -- when most mothers know this couldn't be farther from the truth. Take it from Tabitha Rickard, a mom from Australia who was shamed so badly for nursing her 2-year-old out in the open that she ran away in tears after a stranger started to get aggressive with her. The mom is speaking out about her experience and says she hopes that by sharing her story, no one will ever be intimidated in the same way she was ever again.
