Marie Antoinette

Visible crew/equipment: Marie tells Louis that she would be devastated if her sister in law becomes pregnant before her, right before he leaves for a hunt. She walls down the corridor and stands for about 10 seconds, then walks away, if you look at the floor you can see her mark taped to the ground.

Question: Why wasn't it acceptable for Marie to breastfeed her daughter?

Answer: It was typical for royalty and the aristocracy to remain extremely "hands off" regarding child rearing. Nannies, wet nurses, and tutors tended to all their offsprings' needs, and parents usually spent relatively little time with their children. It would be considered extremely odd for a queen to engage in something so personal and common as breastfeeding her child.
