A Nigerian woman has taken to social media to share a video of her mother breastfeeding her newborn baby when she was out on an errand.
Apparently, the woman walked into her mother breastfeeding her few weeks old baby when she arrived from a quick errand.
The lady, who had no issue with her mother’s action, decided to film the moment and post it on the internet.
She captioned it, “POV: You left your mother with your newborn for a quick errand”
However, the clip has triggered mixed reactions on social media, with many expressing their disapproval with the grandmother for breastfeeding her grandchild, citing hygiene concerns.
On the other hand, some argued that there was nothing wrong with it and that grandmothers often do it to comfort babies when they are crying.
