Mom praised for publicly breastfeeding baby after triathlon
Women who choose to breastfeed in public are often criticised, and that often discourages new moms from feeding their children in public.
But not Katrina Bolduc from California. A few seconds after completing her fifth triathlon, she decided to publicly breastfeed her seven-month-old son, a thing she wouldn’t have done months ago without being criticised, Today reported.

"After I came through the running chute, I got my finisher's medal, grabbed some water and came right out to say hello to them. My husband said, 'Oh, he's hungry. He missed you,' so I just grabbed my son and started feeding him," she told the publication.
Bolduc went on to share her breastfeeding picture on Facebook, and was praised by many, including a group called 'Breastfeeding Mama', who even shared the photo.
