Angry mom says lifeguard asked her to leave public swimming pool for breastfeeding her baby
The furious mother took to social media to share the incident and initiated a discussion on a Newcastle Mums Facebook group where she received many mixed reactions
An angry mother has slammed a lifeguard for asking her to leave a public pool as she was breastfeeding her 10-month-old baby. The woman has chosen to be anonymous and was nursing her baby at the edge of the pool while watching over her three-year-old son.
The furious mother spoke to Yahoo 7 News and shared, "The lifeguard, a young female, asked me to leave because they don't want milk getting in the pool and because my 10-month-old son might vomit in the pool." The mother was also told by the lifeguard that food and drinks were not allowed in the pool and any milk getting into the pool water would become a huge hygiene risk.
