ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Some mothers who want the local YMCA to change its policy against breast-feeding in the swimming pool area plans a "nurse-in" for this weekend.
"We're going to sit and nurse our babies, hopefully to get our point across," said Krista Dragun, one of the organizers of Saturday's event. "The plan is to show that there's a large community outcry, and we're saying: `This policy is not OK, and it needs to change.' Our goal is to get them to have a more mother-baby friendly policy in their pool area."
Dragun said details of the nurse-in were still being worked out, but she expected the mothers to meet at 1 p.m. in the lobby of the building for a peaceful demonstration. The mothers won't try to nurse in the pool area, she told The Ann Arbor News.
