A cranky brother has labelled his sister ‘tacky’ for breastfeeding her eight-week-old baby at his wedding.
The 34-year-old man called his sister out for feeding her newborn at his wedding, saying she ‘completely embarrassed herself’.
“She breastfeeds whenever she goes. We visit her house? She’ll breastfeed in front of us. Visiting our parents? She’ll breastfeed. Going out in a public setting? She’ll sit on a bench on the park and breastfeed. Go out to a restaurant? She breastfeeds. Every where,” the man complained on reddit. “I’ve never spoken on it because I know she’ll get mad and offended but when she did that on my wedding I lost my cool.
“During the reception dinner she just did it again. I kindly approached her and asked her why she didn’t bring formula or at least bump milk out and put it in the bottle so she wouldn’t have to do all this at that moment. She said, ‘Because I don’t have to. I feel comfortable breastfeeding. Getting milk out on my own is more painful’.
“I said she could just make this sacrifice and compromise for one day instead of doing this in front of 250 guests on my wedding. She then said she can’t do much about it now, because the baby has to have her milk. I told her she should be more thoughtful of that then instead of completely embarrassing herself and us by doing this.”
The man complained to his 23-year-old new wife, who sided with his sister, calling her new husband an a**hole and saying he needs to apologise to his sister.
“My parents also sided with my sister and now pretty much everyone thinks I’m an a**hole since I’m the only person who had a problem with it.
“The only reason I decided to call her out is because I considered it a bad etiquette and tacky to do that at a formal event and that she could just find another solution for that night. Am I the a**hole?”
