We had a childbirth class with a video and that showed that in the past Norwegian hospital practices were pretty common to how it often is here now.

The other issue here that is sort of a non-issue i Norge is nursing beyong a year/"extended breastfeeding". Many people think it's weird here, (there is another Motherwear blog article about that) though I've never been approached. I don't think it's an issue in Norway because mothers usually nurse for a year and go back to work. Perhaps they pump and continue nursing while home, I haven't heard anything to that affect.

It's the most natural thing in the world, so I don't understand how so many people have a problem with women feeding their child in public. Maybe they could consider looking the other way if they have such a problem with it? :) Here in Norway, you’ll see mothers breastfeeding their babies just about anywhere, and nobody lifts an eyebrow.
