City parents have plenty of worries to contend with that our suburban counterparts don't, from [car seats in cabs]( to [finding the right stroller for your lifestyle]( and how, exactly, to [navigate the subway]( with a baby in tow. But one thing city mamas shouldn't have to worry about is where to feed their babies, specifically where to breastfeed or pump when you're on the go. While state law protects a mother's right to breastfeed in public, saying "a mother may breastfeed her baby in any location, public or private, where the mother is otherwise authorized to be," not all mothers are particularly comfortable baring it all, and certainly pumping isn't easy on a city bench. When mama's not comfortable, neither is baby.
