Susan Brown is a lactation consultant with the Barren River Area District Health Department. She says: "We've been waiting for this law for a long time. It didn't just happen overnight. We've known about it in the breastfeeding world for a long time and have been supporting it. We're really excited."
The excitement is all about Senate Bill 106. It explicitly permits mothers to breastfeed their baby or express their breast milk in public and prevents anyone from interfering with a mother breastfeeding in public.
Brown says: "What it means is that all breastfeeding moms in Kentucky now have no fear of breastfeeding in public. Before the law was a little bit fuzzy and a mom might be asked to leave a mall or restaurant, anywhere she might be breastfeeding her baby."
