A Manhattan shop that specializes in bras and supplies for breastfeeding is being sued by the condo where it's located. The condo board boobs say they're just trying to stop a commercial use that isn't allowed. "I'm past the point of trying to understand this board," said Upper Breast Side shop owner Felina Rakowski-Gallagher. "I didn't come in here saying I was a midwife, I didn't come in here saying I was doing Botox. The board members totally knew what they were getting into." The shop has been operating in the Pythian on West 70th Street since 2007, notes the New York Daily News. Things are tough all over for breastfeeding. Check out this recent protest by nursing moms.
