Re: Ladies who BF, do you use a nursing cover?

I have one from Bebe Au Lait, but b/c of her reflux, I can't BF her - I can only pump and give it to her in the bottle....

I am going to sell mine of Craigslist. I think I used it 3 times in total....

I had one of those and I hated it because it doesn't cover your back. I end up lifting my shirt 'cause I'm so sick of wearing button down shirts. Anyway, I got one that looks like a poncho/shawl. It looks like something you may wear anyway. I love it, but can't remember the name of it.

Do you think it is worth getting the silk one or just the regular one?

The silk looks softer, but I think the regular one would be fine too.

Which one do you have?

Re: Ladies who BF, do you use a nursing cover?

I LOVE my bebe au lait. I also find that my back is uncovered, so if I know I will be out at a public place I might wear a t-shirt with a cardigan over it so that my back is still covered, although most of the time I dont care.

I don't use a nursing cover. I just pull my shirt up. I find it a lot less conspicuous, and no one has every seen anything while I'm out in public. (I also wear looser shirts.)

I do the same. If I am at the mall I will go to Nordstroms and I won't use a cover then. DD is 8.5 months old so half the time I am fighting her to keep the blanket on.

I have one - but I will tell you DD HATES to be under a cover or blanket - she won't eat and either cries or thinks it is peek a boo time and tries to tear it off. I found nursing shirts are good - but haven't found a great alternative too it.

I have one - you can have it! I washed it and never used it. I bought it off that site. I have the Kimono pattern.



FM me your address and I will send it to you this week. External Image

I always did the same. I nursed in tons of places & I never got so much as a look. I don't think anyone ever noticed.

I had that and TOTALLY recommend it. I wish I had gotten it sooner after giving birth to DD. It made nursing in public (or just at home with other people around) so much easier. Its a little pricey, but I thought totally worth it. I'm definitely going to start using it from day one with the next one!!
