Cee.
Your post is right on! I've been wanting to say that throughout this whole
thread. I breast-fed four of my children in public and never once used a
cover-up, nor did I wear special "nursing clothes". It is much LESS
inconspicuous to just pull your shirt up and have it rest above the baby's
face. Very rarely did anyone even give me a second look. It appears that
you are just cradling a baby! My skin did not shown at all. Recently at
Disneyland, another mom and I a few people apart in line were both nursing
our exhausted toddlers. People didn't even bat an eyelash. The cover-ups
make it OBVIOUS people are nursing and draw MORE attention. I have been
surprised by all of the suggestions on these posts for ways to cover up
while nursing!
Like some people like to say...just my two cents :).
