‘Breast-feeding is a natural way some babies EAT. So sorry, no warning here. You see more boob in a bikini,’ wrote Roper.
It came after the 33-year-old posted an Instagram story of herself enjoying a lazy football Sunday with family, where she could be seen breast-feeding her five-month-old Brooks.
Minutes after posting the wholesome video, Roper received a direct message by a follower who begged her to ‘stop!!!!’

‘At least put up a warning’ urged the follower.

On an episode of the young mom’s podcast, Mommies Tell All, her and her co-host, Carly Waddell, discussed the very stigma that Roper faced on her Instagram page on Sunday.
Roper expressed that ‘moms already have enough guilt’ revolving parenting and what is deemed ‘proper’ by society’s standards.
The Bachelor alum even played devil’s advocate by saying that she understands that ‘people parent differently all over the world, culturally.’
But, whether you agree with her freedom to publicly breastfeed or not, Roper emphasized that her and Tolbert are doing ‘what is best’ for their family and that other parents should, basically, mind their own business.
