Thanks for sharing. I think it's terrible moms are harassed for nursing their children. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/%e2%80%9cnursing-in-public%e2%80%9d-harassment-hotline#post-553494 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 09:48:02 +0000 T.H.O.U. 553494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: Haha...</p> <p>I would definitely not make a sense if I was harassed but I would for sure report it so that other moms could avoid going through the same thing. </p> <p>I think NIP is great and people should be more comfortable and welcoming for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/%e2%80%9cnursing-in-public%e2%80%9d-harassment-hotline#post-553484 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 09:43:57 +0000 Bao 553484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting, I have never heard of this before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/%e2%80%9cnursing-in-public%e2%80%9d-harassment-hotline#post-553482 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 09:43:18 +0000 prettylizy 553482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is such a neat idea. I've never had anyone say anythign to me about nursing in public, I did clear a room once at a party! lol! Everyone just quietly needed to go get some food or a new drink within 5 minutes of me starting to nurse! lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/%e2%80%9cnursing-in-public%e2%80%9d-harassment-hotline#post-553479 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 09:41:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 553479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1-855-NIP-FREE</p> <p><a href="http://www.bestforbabes.org/announcing-1-855-nip-free-the-best-for-babes-nursing-in-public-harassment-hotline" rel="nofollow">http://www.bestforbabes.org/announcing-1-855-nip-free-the-best-for-babes-nursing-in-public-harassment-hotline</a> </p> <p>How does it work?</p> <p> Moms who have been victimized through a NIP incident will call 855-NIP-FREE and report the issue to Best For Babes.<br /> When moms call our hotline, you’ll be asked to record a message, giving us some information about what you experienced.<br /> One of the members of our team will return the call of that mother. Our team is comprised of influential and well-versed moms who have faced NIP harassment themselves, who have begun advocating for either corporate policy change or improvements of state breastfeeding legislation, and who most importantly can offer support to moms faced with NIP harassment. Rest assured everyone manning the phones and having access to the information you give us truly has your best interest at heart, and most of us have been exactly where you are.<br /> Our volunteers are there to help aggrieved mothers understand what their rights are, to help moms navigate through their situation and suggest ways to approach the offending institution, as well as refer moms to become active in their state breastfeeding coalitions. We want to help be a guiding hand in what can be a very frustrating and emotional time.<br /> All of the incidents will be recorded but your personal information will be kept private.</p> <p>Very Cool! Anyone ever call? </p>
