Mother Harassed for Breastfeeding in Orange County Store

She was there shopping with her mother and two children, a 3-year-old daughter and a 10-month-old son.
 
"We had been shopping just a short time when my son Oliver became fussy because he was hungry and tired," said Homme. "I grabbed him from my mom and walked to the back of the store to see if there was a lactation room to feed him in, but there wasn't."
 
Homme said she then cradled her baby boy and began breastfeeding him in the store. A few minutes later, a female employee approached her and asked her to stop.
 
"She asked me to go feed my child in the bathroom because she said a customer was complaining," said Homme.
 
Homme said she was stunned and she told the employee that she would not go to the bathroom with her baby.
 
"She kept repeating, 'Out of respect for yourself and out of respect for other customers, please cover up,'" said Homme. "I know my rights as a breastfeeding mother and this was request was ridiculous and against the law."
