I love that there is a space now! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2128059 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:44:24 +0000 nana87 2128059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is great! Though, I think by the time I'm comfortable taking my baby to a baseball game (loud, cold or hot temps, and looooong time to be away from home/crib) we won't be nursing, at least in public, anymore ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2128047 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:36:00 +0000 Pirouette 2128047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Peasinapod: I can see your point, but to me it's more about providing a convenience for those who are not comfortable nursing in public, or who literally can't find a comfortable place to nurse (I mean, seats at a ballpark are not exactly comfortable!) Just because the nursing room exists, doesn't mean you have to use it. but if it doesn't exist you have no choice. and it also gives you a nice calm place for things like diaper changes or even non-nursing feeding a distracted toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2128006 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:15:31 +0000 Peasinapod 2128006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do really like nursing rooms and have on occasion used them because they're more comfortable. But I worry that if I am somewhere that has a nursing room people will expect me to breastfeed there. When it doesn't always make the most sense to go to the room. So oddly it makes me feel uncomfortable nursing in public places that have nursing rooms when I'm normally pretty confident. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127986 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:09:15 +0000 Pirouette 2127986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: @avivoca: agreed! but the first one is the hardest to get, right? if it's a huge success, i'm sure they'll put another one (or a few) in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127982 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:07:01 +0000 LibbyLou 2127982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Woohoo! I have been seeing this as I live in Ohio and SO excited to see in person. </p> <p>It was sponsored by Huggies- which is a Proctor and Gamble product that is based in Cincy. That may be the reason the Reds got it first! All this attention is sure to grab other ballparks though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127977 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:04:18 +0000 avivoca 2127977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read about that a few days ago and while I'm glad to see it, I agree with @blackbird: in that they will need more. But props to them for starting the trend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127973 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:02:36 +0000 blackbird 2127973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nice! Now they just need like...6 of them so you don't have to cross a busy ballpark to get to the room, with a screaming infant in tow :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127970 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:59:50 +0000 MrsF 2127970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's great! I hope more places follow suit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127958 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:55:55 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2127958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127956 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:54:24 +0000 cascademom 2127956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoa, that's awesome!! I haven't been to Cincy in a decade, but props to the owner for being very proactive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127955 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:53:43 +0000 Mamaof2 2127955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ah that is awesome!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-room-at-a-ballpark#post-2127932 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:44:01 +0000 Pirouette 2127932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is pretty cool! wish i lived in Cincy :) Hope more ballparks catch onto this idea.</p> <p><a href="http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/12586411/cincinnati-reds-debut-nursery-great-american-ballpark" rel="nofollow">http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/12586411/cincinnati-reds-debut-nursery-great-american-ballpark</a> </p>
