Nursing Your Baby in Public

We all know that public breastfeeding can be a contentious issue. But no matter which side you’re on, when your baby’s hungry, it’s not going to matter where you are. With a little preparation, you can make breastfeeding easier, whether in public or in private.  After all, breastfeeding is the healthiest way to feed your baby.

Nursing covers are a discreet way of publicly feeding your breastfeeding baby. A good breastfeeding cover is large enough to completely cover the entire chest and the baby, yet flexible enough so that you can still make eye contact with the baby. It can also double as a sun shade or blanket.

Breastfeeding clothes are an absolute must for nursing mothers, not only when breastfeeding in public, but also for use in private. Nursing tops and breastfeeding bras provide much needed breast support, yet allow for quick and easy access to the breasts for nursing.
