Shooters on the peak doesn't exist anymore......BIG disappointment for Lukas, who loved the cars there.....
It has been a while (Lukas is now 2 and 8 month) but I used to feed also everywhere and honestly I hate to go to the toilet to feed!!! Adults also do not eat in the toilet/powder rooms. But I think it depends on everybody's own taste.

There is a Nursing room in Maritime Square at Tsing Yi, same level than all the babies shops and Toys'R us. Very nice and comfortable... but don't count on it on week-end, people are queueing up to change baby !

I Just breastfeed whereever I can seat down comfortably, so far, no comment from bystanders (after 6 months).

Why don't we all help!

I have pasted the list here and edited it. The next person can paste it into their post with their additions, and so on...

WHERE TO BREASTFEED AND CHANGE A BABY IN HONG KONG .


Marriott, Conrad, or Shangri-La, Admiralty - Most have washrooms with a bench and mirror. Also look for the more secluded chairs in lobbies.

Peninsula Hotel, T.S.T. - take the lift to the 1st floor where the bathroom is nice.

Hong Kong Hotel, Kowloon side near Star Ferry. Try any other large hotels as these usually have comfy chairs in the lobbies and clean washrooms for changing babies.

Jusco Department Store, Tai Koo - On the 2nd floor near the baby department there is a changing area and a place to breastfeed.

Pacific Coffee and Starbuck's shops - Most have large chairs and some even have play areas for older children.

Many of the newer Superstore Park N Shops have baby changing/feeding areas with chairs in them. Festival Walk (Kowloon Tong), Paradise Mall (Heng Fa Chuen), Maritime Square (Tsing Yi), Citygate (Tung Chung), Parkview.

All Mothercare stores have changing areas and usually a chair to sit on. The stores are in Prince's Building, Ocean Terminal, Windsor House and New Town Plaza (Shatin).

Outside Toys R Us in Ocean Terminal there is a special glassed in area to breastfeed and change babies under the escalator.

Try the changing rooms of Marks and Spencer, Wing On, Lane Crawford or UNY. If they are not too busy they will usually let you use a room. Sometimes there are chairs. If not, the carpets are relatively clean.

Ikea in Causeway Bay, Shatin and Prince Edward (not far from Fa Yuen Street market) have changing tables and sometimes a chair. Try the cafeteria for breastfeeding. Usually quiet.

Chep Lap Kok Airport - There are baby changing rooms so you can change and feed your baby before getting on the plane. This is great if you need to wait a long time for your departure. Then you can nurse all the way to your destination on the plane! .

Discovery Bay/Star Ferries - The rocking motion will even help baby fall asleep!

Try feeding in McDonald's or a Chinese Dim Sum type restaurant. They are always noisy, so breastfeeding seems less obtrusive.

Dan Ryans, Shooters (on the Peak) are good places to eat with kids and they have changing tables.

Jaspa's Restaurant, Sai Kung - A good place to eat with kids, very comfortable with breastfeeding mums in the restaurant.

Olympic MTR station/shopping centre - Padded sofas and cubicles with lockable stalls to breastfeed in.

Times Square - 9/F

ADD NEW PLACES HERE:

IFC 2 –
Ladies Toilet near the Starbucks has a great changing room with bottle warmer and wipes.
P3 Near Lane Crawford, Baby Changing Room, small room with one chair, sink, wipes and bottle warmer.

Annerley Midwifes –
1801 Car Po Commercial Bldg, 18-20 Lyndhurst Terrace Central Hong Kong, Tel:2983 1558
