Keeping it private

If you're planning to nurse a good cover-up may be in order. You may quickly find that while receiving blankets get the job done, they're not always totally reliable when it comes to staying in place. Most of us want to know our cover is going to stay put when we're nursing on a bench in the mall - if you're up to that sort of thing. A product I used (but not at the mall - I wasn't brave enough!) was one of these great nursing cover-ups from BumbleBabyMommy on Etsy. This cover up is kind of like a big apron that goes around your neck and has an adjustable neck strap. Boning in the front holds it open right under your chin so you can see baby and baby can see you - but no one can see what baby is doing! Genius! Mine was an adorable yellow and white plaid with white embroidered flowers but she's got lots of other sweet prints as well.
