I don’t understand at all the indignation of mothers about the fact that they are not allowed to breastfeed their children in a public place. For a minute, they don’t let you feed, but they don’t let you expose your breasts. Of course, a hungry child has the right to satisfy his hunger at any time convenient for him, and his mother has the right to feed her child where and when she sees fit. But why do you need to demonstratively expose your breasts? If you are a nursing mother, you probably assume that the time will inevitably come to feed your baby, so take with you a cape, a scarf, a snood, and at least a fan, well, something to cover yourself if necessary. In the end, if it just so happens that you don’t have anything on you, step aside, turn away, choose a place that is not so crowded, so that you don’t embarrass yourself and don’t embarrass people. As for the specific situation in the museum, the issue, in my opinion, is controversial. Here, oddly enough, I am on my mother’s side. Simply because there is absolutely nothing to argue with her. Indeed, what kind of indecency can we talk about in connection with the exposure of the chest if families with children come to the Tretyakov Gallery and do not turn away in embarrassment from the paintings of Rembrandt, Michelangelo’s David without a fig leaf, do not cover the children’s eyes, etc. But this is done as trolling, to annoy the museum administration and the public. In general, I wouldn’t drag it infant during the SARS season public place, and then, if the incident took place in the Tretyakov Gallery, then sometimes there are such queues at the box office, sometimes you can stand on the street for an hour. Why torture a child? And then it would be possible to step aside again, why feed the baby ostentatiously in a crowd of people? Feeding babies is such an intimate moment that does not tolerate extraneous glances, strangers, not always positive thoughts, etc. But this, of course, is a personal matter for everyone. I don’t know all the details, but if I were the museum staff, I would never get into trouble with a nursing mother, and if her behavior, in their opinion, somehow violated the order established in the museum, I would (if I were an employee) offered her stole, scarf, or would take her to a more secluded place. Well, if a nursing mother started making a fuss in response to my (as a museum employee) proposals, defending her rights, I would leave her alone. Why take a sin on your soul, get into a quarrel with it, make it nervous, in the end, everything will affect the baby, it turns out that by your actions you are harming the baby, why is this?
We begin to prepare for the most beloved and long-awaited holiday long before the celebration itself, in particular, we carefully think through the menu. The answer to the question of what to cook for New Year, is most interesting to a nursing mother, for whom the list of permitted foods has been significantly reduced with the arrival of a baby in the house.
With our recipes, the holiday table will be full of original and very tasty treats that will not harm the baby in the least and will satisfy the gastronomic desires of the mother.
New Year's table rules for nursing mothers
When choosing “nursing” recipes for the New Year’s celebration, first of all you need to find out all the nuances of a woman’s nutrition during breastfeeding. After all, many products can not only provoke allergic reactions in the baby, but also cause severe flatulence. As a result, the baby is restless and violent negative reaction with crying.
What should a breastfeeding woman avoid?
- First of all, the mother of a baby (less than six months old) should give up any allergic foods: eggs, chocolate, citrus fruits and other tropical fruits, with the exception of apples and bananas.
In principle, eggs can be used in cooking, but in very small quantities.
- Also, avoid drinking too sweet drinks and desserts. Sugar in excess can easily cause diathesis in children, even through breast milk.
- It’s worth removing from the menu and that’s it gas-forming products: white cabbage, legumes, peas, corn, garlic, smoked meats.
- Since we have already mentioned smoked meats, we should immediately add to the list of prohibitions all store-bought sausages, sauces (mayonnaise, ketchup) and other chemical products in which the level of “eats” and monosodium glutamate is literally off scale.
To dress the salad, you can use sour cream or homemade mayonnaise. It will be no worse than the original.
- Many favorite pickles are also prohibited: fish, pickled vegetables, salads and vinegar-based preserves.
- Carbonated drinks, juices and, of course, alcohol, even if it’s champagne, are NOT allowed under any circumstances.
You can learn more about all the intricacies of a nursing mother’s diet from our articles on the website.

The most popular holiday in our country is approaching - New Year. If shortly before this day you became a mother, please accept our congratulations, you have already received the greatest gift. From this moment on, your life changes radically, its center shifts - from you to your little miracle. Now you will make all decisions taking into account the interests of your baby.
So the New Year's feast, as well as the menu for all subsequent weekends, should be planned based on the principle “do no harm,” because everything you eat gets into the blood, and from there into breast milk. Therefore, you will have to give up many familiar products. And many young mothers on the eve of the New Year are deciding on the question: what tasty things can they treat themselves to?
Let's start off with, what should you limit yourself to?:
- Products that can cause allergies in your baby. Chocolate, citrus fruits, red caviar, red fish, mackerel, seafood, exotic and brightly colored fruits and vegetables;
- Products that increase gas formation. Fresh vegetables and fruits (especially grapes, White cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini), milk, confectionery and bakery products with yeast, legumes (peas, beans);
- Mushrooms – high risk of food poisoning;
- Out-of-season fruits and vegetables are a source of nitrates;
- Industrial canned food, mayonnaise, sausages and other products containing artificial colors, preservatives, flavor enhancers and other “chemicals”;
- Carbonated drinks are not healthy for anyone at all.
In addition, onions, garlic, and seasonings are not harmful, but they change the taste of milk.
Thus, almost all of our usual products are banned. But you can find a way out of this situation.
So what might it look like New Year's menu for a nursing mother:
- Main hot dish. You can bake meat or fish in the oven with a small amount of spices.
- Boil colorful vegetables for a side dish. Frozen mixtures combining different kinds vegetables, a great variety. Choose according to your taste. Such a side dish will be bright, beautiful, festive, and healthy at the same time.
- Salads. If you experiment, you can prepare your favorite salads, but replacing some of the products in them. The same traditional New Year's salad "Olivier" can be eaten by a nursing mother if you replace the sausage with boiled chicken fillet and mayonnaise with sour cream.
- Dessert. You can bake apples with dried fruits, stuff prunes with sweet cottage cheese, or prepare a cottage cheese-banana dessert.
The main thing is to show your imagination, decorate the dish beautifully, and find someone who will either look after the baby or help prepare the festive dinner. And then the dishes on the New Year's table will be tasty and healthy, taking into account your diet.
And of course, it’s worth remembering that alcohol while feeding your baby is not your story. But you can pour juice into a beautiful glass or wine glass, preferably one that is intended for feeding children from 3 months.
If you really want to enjoy something tasty, but undesirable, then, probably, a little bit is okay. It is important to observe moderation: you can eat one small sandwich with caviar, but half a jar would be clearly too much. Also, you should not try everything at once: it is advisable to introduce new products one at a time, once every 3 days, so that you can notice the baby’s reaction. So if you can’t imagine the New Year, for example, without tangerines, it’s better to try to eat a couple of slices in advance, and don’t overdo it on the holiday itself either. Of course, what is and what is not is up to you to decide.
