I would not apologize either because you did nothing wrong. So sorry you had to experience that. It really is a shame that people view feeding your child as a lewd act.

I don't know if anyone else already made reference to this. But here is a great response from a Christian male. The letter was written after his wife was approached by their pastor who received a complaint from a fellow member who had issues with her nursing in church.

Yeah that, maybe you need to buy a posted of a Maria Lactans (or however it's spelled) to put up the in church, lol.

I had my worst reaction to NIP ever at a church as well. Actually it wasn't dissimilar, I was totally covered, you would have though I was just holding the baby if you didn't notice, me fidgeting with my clothes before hand and this one lady tried to take a blanket and cover me up and this other lady nearly leapt across a table for the same purpose, it was crazy and creepy.
