I have a major problem with my aunt. She is only 25 and she had her baby recently. The problem is she always breast feeds in front of me and my 2 sisters and 3 brothers. It is so embarassing when out of no where she takes out her breast and feeds the baby and when the baby is done eating her breast is still hanging and shes all sitting there. Sometimes I catch a glimpse of my bros staring at her. I once told her its soo uncomfortable and embarrassing for u to breast feed in front of my three older bros. Go make him a bottle iinstead. She says ok i will do that. But then shes like no i wanna breast feed him when she comes back to the living room. My older sis got pissed because its soo annoying and left the house after she cursed at her. My aunt doesn't give a shit though. I told my mom and my mom is irritated too because my aunt has double d's especially since women that are breast feeding get bigger boobs. My oldest bro is in his 20's as well so she really needs to stop because i don't give a shit if shes our aunt shes so dam young! And its weird my bros now always wanna go to her house!!! I dont mean their like asking to, at first before when they find out we are going they r like no i wanna stay and like none of them go, but since she started breast feeding they never say anything like that. This is pissing me off and many times i called her a f'ed up whoe but shes like not listening to any of me and my sisters. Can u guys give me some advice because talking to that whoe is not working?! I really dread going....also does anyone have the same problem?
Edit: I know my bros arent preverted and wont like do anything to my aunt its just u know........it annoying!

I've not encountered this problem, but I would definitely have your parents and other family members sit down with her and talk to her about it, not just you. Tell her that it makes you all uncomfortable, and that you have nothing against her breastfeeding, but that if she is going to do it you would prefer she go into the other room and breastfeed her child. Let her know your reasons why it's making you all uncomfortable as well. If she still doesn't stop after that, well, the best course of action may be to lessen your visits to her house until either the breastfeeding stage it over or she has a change of heart.

I think you have to decide here what you can do and want to do
Can you just leave the room -
Maybe you and your sisters can together address the issues it how you feel that is important.
I guess there must be another room where your aunt can go to breast feed.
so you speak up and be heard.

Gawd, my step mother had two babies with my dad, before he filed a divorce, AGAIN. Still, she was never breast feeding my step brother and step sister while anyone else was present, she was doing it in their bedroom.

Ask her to do it in the bath room.

Ask her to do it in the bath room.
Or in her/baby's bedroom.

First of all I don't think your aunt is doing anything wrong. Breast feeding is far better than giving the baby a bottle.
What bothers you is your brothers being pervs. It is them with whom you should be talking. They are the ones doing something wrong.

This.
Your aunt is only feeding her baby. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, and breastfeeding is a totally natural and human thing. Why should this make anyone uncomfortable?
The problem is your brothers gawking at her exposed breast with a child clinging from it. Tell them to stop staring at her. That is what should make people (particularly your Aunt) uncomfortable.

Thank you. This. There is absolutely nothing wrong with breastfeeding. It is healthy for mother and baby and there shouldn't be such unnecessary amounts of shame attached to it. Tell your brothers to quit being so immature and learn some respect if that's what's bothering you. If her breastfeeding personally makes you uncomfortable, then maybe you could reevaluate what you find so unsettling about it.

If she's not respecting the wishes of the OWNERS of the home she is a guest in, then they need to make her leave.
Yes, she can feed her baby but she also needs to respect the comfort of the home owners as a guest. It's almost like smoking, some people let their family and friends smoke on their sofa, some do not. So she can feed, in regards of their rules. If she gets pissed off that she can't whip her boob out to feed her baby in a private area, then she can take her ass home.
Talk to your parents about it.
The poster's not upset that the Aunt's breastfeeding. Surely OP isn't saying she starve her child.
Op's upset she has no respect for how they feel. It's not an "EEEW BOOBS stop breastfeeding!" thing, it's an "ok, I'd rather not see your engorged tit and darkened nipple swollen from feeding, and dripping milk please." It's about the poster feeling uncomfortable in their own home and wanting some sort of respect that they don't have to fear their aunt coming over. It's not wanting her sitting with her breast out in front of horny young men. It's nothing to do with breastfeeding in general, it's how and where the aunt is doing it.
When you're uncomfortable in your own home, there's a problem and it needs to be addressed. A home is a safe haven, not a will I see a swollen, dripping breast today.
And before: I took make a bottle to mean go express some milk. Breast feeding women usually and always should have a pump on them in the case that for whatever reason, someone else can feed their baby. You never really know what will happen when you leave the house, so you should always be prepared especially when you've got a baby with you. Like if she were fall and be unconscious, at least she has expressed milk bags for someone to feed her child and it's still breast milk, so her wishes are respected in child feedings.

Honestly, I think you're just overreacting. Breastfeeding is normal, not perverted or embarrassing. It's just a simple part of life. I really don't see what the problem is, and I have two sisters, one with one kid, the other with two. They breastfed their kids around me and I really don't care. It's neither erotic nor awkward.
