One mom is clapping back after being publicly shamed for breastfeeding her baby while at the beach. But the way that this mama had to even find out she was being shamed is what makes the entire situation that much worse.
Isabel Lomax was scrolling through Facebook a day after spending time at the beach with her family. That is when she stumbled across a video of herself breastfeeding her child. The woman who posted the video shamed Isabel for breastfeeding on a beach without covering up. That's when Isabel clapped back.
The Facebook post read: “I’m not shaming women who breastfeed their babies. I’m shaming the woman who breastfed in public with no respect to cover themselves up and just let their boobs hang out (nipple included) for everyone to see! COVER TF UP !!! I shouldn’t have to cover my son’s eyes and explain why your boobs are out and quite frankly, I don’t want to see it either. Have some respect! For real cover yourself up, what the [expletive]is wrong with people?”
The 24-year-old new mom made a TikTok to share her response to such public humiliation. "Not only did this woman walk past me multiple times with her son, you had every opportunity in the world to say something to me," she said. "Not that I would have cared or stopped what I was doing, but you instead choose to post a video of me and my child on Facebook, publicly for the world to see. Next time you see a mom breastfeeding her child in public, covered up or not, tell her how good of a job she’s doing."

People in the comments backed Isabel up.
One mom wrote: "YESSS!! your response is amazing."
“She’s at the beach… Most times people go half-naked with thongs or tiny tops," commented someone else. "The woman can simply tell her son that babies eat that way or with a bottle."
