A battle over a woman's right to breastfeed in public was caught on camera in a video that's gone viral.

Lucy Eades says a worker at a rec center in her small Texas town confronted her twice, asking her to cover up while breastfeeding her infant daughter in the lobby.

Eades' husband was so outraged; he started recording the argument on camera and posted it to YouTube.

The rec center is defending the worker, saying she wasn't trying to prevent Eades from breastfeeding, but it's not illegal to ask her to cover up.
