A woman who breastfed her baby while conducting a job interview said she was shocked when her male business partner told her it was “a bit weird”.
The woman posted on Mumsnet that she was on maternity leave but agreed to sit in on an interview. She said she had to feed her son when the meeting ran over time.
She said her business partner had asked her: ‘Can you try not getting your boobs out for the next interview?’
Explaining the situation, the mum said she had left time to feed her son before the interview but the candidate had arrived early.
Some readers believed breastfeeding should be “normalised” while others said an interview wasn’t the place to breastfeed.
