Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal certainly has no problem nursing in public! 🙂 I am not that bold yet though! hehe. |
Now that I have 2 kids, and am more informed when it comes to breastfeeding, I am blessed to say that I have no qualms about nursing anytime, anywhere, even without a cover! (Which is what happens a lot of times, as our adorable toddler Rysse always pushes away anything that I use to try covering up! hehe).
Here is the first part of my top 10 tried and tested tips to help dispel the discomfort about nursing in public.

Personally, there is a part of me that does not like nursing covers because
1) why cover something so natural?
2) it’s hot in the country!
3) you create more awareness when more people can see you
4) it’s such a hassle sometimes
5) few babies like doing it
6) few people will actually stare
That being said, I love my boncho and Infinitude… haha… and understand that other moms have greater inhibition (them, or their hubbies) 😀

I should practice in the mirror. I’m still uncomfortable nursing in public even with a cover. My baby would pull and play with the cover so no use. Plus the husband is not comfortable too with me NIP.

i put baby on my lap, put the cover on (it has a neck strap) then feed him. no one sees a thing and its a breathable but not see through material 🙂
