I always praise nursing moms but I also praise formula feeding moms. How ever you choose to feed your baby is your business. Now, I don’t think that he meant in a creepy way and maybe you are overreacting. If it was a sexual comment fine, but he praised you for feeding your baby! 
Overthinking is a killer

DEFINITELY over thinking. Not all people ate creeps or being gross because they ask. Some people guienly care. Even MEN.
Wow that is a stretch. He was probably just trying to be nice and honestly who cares? He complimented you as a parent, grow up

So? It was a conversation you had with someone. If you didn’t wanna have that conversation then you could have walked away. What’s said was said. It doesn’t matter now nor will it matter tomorrow.
You’re still emotional from just having a baby. Try not to over think things.

I wouldn’t see it that way 
would you rather him be negative about it? He’s probably a grandpa who’s daughter breastfed. Take it with a grain of salt hun

You’re definitely over reacting. He seen a mother with a baby and either was trying to help you in some way with letting you know where some is, could of had some. You never know. If anything sexual was said I’d agree but most older people are all for breast is best.

Yep! Dudes totally trying to jank his wank over the thought of you breast feeding! Totally
Um… perhaps he assumed you were doing what’s best for her considering it’s what you’re doing? Seems like you’re reading too much into something that isn’t that serious. Would you have preferred a lecture about how you should be using formula instead?

It is natural to ask about how you feed your child and it is a complement. Good for you.
Do you remember the saying “ Don’t make a mountain out of a mohill “ that’s what you are doing.

Overly concerned about what someone you don’t know said? I would have forgotten about this within 20 seconds.
Choose what you want to keep carrying with you. You only have so much room in your mind for things. Drop the negative thoughts. It’s not worth the space taking up your brain and now your time to write this. Move on, sis.

Do you judge every older man whom asks a question. Everyone knows there is a formula shortage here in the states. I don’t think he was trying too find out if you BF. I think he was just making conversation.

Elderly have asked me too. This sounds like he probably had grand children possibly effected by it too. Maybe he wanted to help you.
I think it’s a reach, some people do genuinely care.

Hopefully he was a concerned grandpa, wanted your daughter to be safe and nourished…it is never good to overthink things that weren’t even said/addressed. It puts you through worry and grief needlessly!!
I think it was innocent and not all men sexualize breasts. Maybe he watched his wife struggle with their children and had some insight into the difficulty

There was so many other things you could have said.
Your over reacting…
When your children grow up and you see someone with a baby it brings back so many memories of when you had yours and sometimes you start talking with strangers about their new baby. I think we’re so use to people being nice that your looking to deep into it.

I think it was innocent and not all men sexualize breasts. Maybe he watched his wife struggle with their children and had some insight into the difficulty. He sounds like a caring individual to ask about a child’s well-being during a formula shortage. Maybe his wife died and he was lonely and making conversation. It’s hard not to assume the worst these days.

I think you’re over thinking. He was probably just tying to engage with another young human. Of course people have their reasons for not breast feeding but he probably would have shown concern for your baby’s needs, if you had said that she is formula fed. I think he was probably being friendly, God forbid!

What was the big deal? He just said good for you and was most likely just being a concerned person and saw you with a new born
Ummm, I’d take a backhand compliment over a backhand insult any day. Good grief, the guy was just inquiring, and conversation between strangers used to be a normal occurrence. Now everyone’s a “creep.”

You are overthinking.
I was always approached and told positive comments from older people when ebf my son. It was nice because I didn’t receive that treatment from my age people…. Don’t overthink it girl it’s a stressful time enough right now with other stuff going on
I think he was honestly just curious as to hiw you were handling the shortage if you were using formula I feel like he was genuinely being nice and trying to make conversation with you sweetie I think the hormones are still running rapidly babe and honestly the older people are generally concerned about the formula problem as they went through a recession before us so I don’t really think he was trying to make you feel any type of way hunny

News flash back in his day there was no such thing as baby formula…maybe he was gonna tell you what we used to use back in the day… ya just had a baby for goodness sake…not lots of young people know about the alternatives…nor everyone is a creeper and wants to know about your boobs…but I’m sure there are some

Pfft, these comments are terrible. We all over think things in some way shape or form. Sometimes, as petty as it may sound, some things just bother us. She just had a baby so her brain, her body are going through changes. This is her fourth (or fifth) child so everything is all messed up. Cut her some slack. This has happened to me too. You don’t realize that some people are jerks until after the fact. I mean that’s how it comes across to me. If I’m wrong then I’m wrong so be it.

The way you described it, the man seemed genuine with some type of concern for the baby knowing there’s a big shortage of formula currently. I was only able to produce enough breast milk for about 3 months with my 1st child and maybe 8weeks with my second born, it happens…there’s no shame in it. I wouldn’t take it so personally.

I think people are genuinely concerned and not to take it personal. It’s so hard not to offend anyone anymore. I can see your way of thinking and I can see someone genuinely caring and asking how its going with the formula shortage and a lot of older people are proud to see someone breast feeding and doing things the natural way. Not a lot of moms do anymore.
