Breastfeeding advocates are rejoicing and praising Beyonce after the pop star was spotted breastfeeding her 7-week-old daughter, Blue Ivy, while dining at NYC’s Sant Ambroeus restaurant Saturday with her husband, Jay-Z.A megastar helps to take away the stigma of nursing in public, experts said. And role models are needed to help young women see the value and the beauty of breastfeeding, said Dr. Ruth Lawrence, professor of pediatrics and obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Rochester School of Medicine.
“I think Beyonce has a huge impact on being able to re-normalize breastfeeding and give women confidence to do the same,” said Emma Kwasnica Read MoreI have to agree. The reason why the general public has such a negative view on public nursing, is because of the standard that has been set. Many times those standards are set by those in the public eye. Needless to say, I was thrilled to hear she fed her baby in the restaurant she was dining. No one would dare tell Beyonce to go nurse in the bathroom! That same respect needs to be extended to ALL moms, whether she's a superstar or not.
Good job Beyonce! You've officially redeemed yourself from the hospital fiasco!
