"was asked by a customer to stop the mother breastfeeding because it made her nauseated"
That is incomprehensible to me. I would probably lose my job over something like that. There are so many crazy things going on in the world, to complain about a nursing mother, saying it made them nauseated, is insane.
I've noticed that motherhood tends to be despised in the U.S., or at least not as important as other things such as career.
The customer is always right.
