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...

When LO was a new newborn I didn't, but once he was a little older- closer to 2 month I did. He didn't tolerate a cover ever really, so it was a matter of just being as discrete as I could. Hoping this...

yep, it's my house & I prefer to do it without a cover, but have used one in front of my FIL because of his comfort level with the whole thing (uh, not very high, in case you were wondering).

There is so much I've had to let go of in terms of modesty with this while breastfeeding thing! I'm nursing in my own home however I can be comfortable and social. Nursed at a restaurant today...

@highwire: That's great!! It is so much easier to go out and not worry about milk/formula/bottles for baby. Boobs are with you wherever you go!

@highwire: Congrats. Love this commercial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgmbJso-2-o. I hope we can all find our comfort zone. But having a baby, I think we all lose some modesty.@emahlee: I agree, I...

oh, my goodness. I nursed LittleBebe on the couch today and FIL LITERALLY covered his eyes when he walked from the kitchen back to his chair (on the other side of me). DH looked at me with hands up...

I always have a cover on no matter what, but it also depends on who. If it's DH's guy friends I prefer to go upstairs and nurse in the comfort of the nursery bc I don't feel comfortable... with women I...

Most of the times I do and just use a nursing cover unless there are a bunch of men in the room. But if my in-laws are visiting for a week then I'll just go to another room. I'm sure it makes them feel...

I breastfeed in front of people at my house. I don't use a cover (he just pulls it off). I just do what needs to be done and try to not draw attention to myself.

No but mostly because i havent figured out how to bf sitting up. I can only do it lying down :(

Yeah, and I'll try to use a shawl or something, depending on who I'm with (with mom or MIL I won't bother, for example). The only time I won't is if I'm trying to nurse him into a nap and he's just...

Yes! I hate being sequestered away while all my family and friends are around. If he's amenable, I nurse and cover myself.

Depends who it is. I nurse (with a cover) in front of my immediate family including my dad and bil. Wouldn't nurse in front of my fil though.

No. It's less of a modesty issue than comfort for DS. He doesn't nurse well when there are a lot of distractions and noise - I can't nurse him in front of the TV. I also like to make sure I can hear...

At first I went into another room because I was still figuring out nursing. Now that I'm more comfortable nursing I just use a cover if I have guests over. Most of the time if its all females I don't...

Yes with family but not in front of non family. The hardest part for me is keeping things discreet while I burp her mid feeding.

I breastfeed anywhere, and I don't use a cover. I would in someone else's home who I knew was uncomfortable with it, but that's it. I'd never cover in my own home.
