There’s no right or wrong place for a woman to nurse her baby. Personally, if it were me, I would bring a small blanket with me and cover my breast, without suffocating the baby!
What do you mean outdated? Breasts are considered inappropriate in public even in beaches (not nude ones) women don’t go topless but its fine in Church? Thats a great idea though why not bottle feed for that 1 hour when you are in church is that still impossible?
Exclusively breast fed babies do not know what to do with a bottle. You’ve probably been at church around breastfeeding mother’s plenty of times and never noticed because the majority of mothers are discreet.Have you ever seen a woman topless in church? Clearly its not a problem.
There are numerous statues and paintings going back many centuries of Mary nursing Jesus-clearly the church does not have a problem with displaying nursing in church.
