In the very early days I was more comfortable by myself, but that was mostly because we weren't good at it yet and my PP hormones were CA-RAY-ZEE so I would often cry trying to get her to latch (man I DON'T miss those days). Once we got the hang of things I hated missing out on all the action so I would plunk myself down on the couch and feed her wherever we were. If it was female family only I wouldn't cover, but if there were male family members I would use a cover. Now that she is 9 months she will NOT tolerate a cover for the most part, and she is way to distracted to nurse in a busy place so we have to find somehwere quite otherwise she pops off every time there is a sound and I spray milk over everything.
