Yes, I wouldn't leave the room in my own house to feed my child! I do cover up though, but that is for myself.

No, I never felt comfortable with covers, plus LO hated them and I don't like to feel exposed.

Um, yes. It's my house, and if they're uncomfortable with me feeding my child, they can leave the room. I do let people know before I start, but I'm pretty discreet anyway, even when I'm home alone so...

Depends on who it is! I have left and done it with and without a cover.We have a Xmas party today but I pumped a bottle to bring so I wouldn't have to leave, and so I could have a glass of wine ;)

Depends who it is. Ill nurse if its DH, my mom or aunt, or a couple close friends. Otherwise I go to the nursery where the glider is - I prefer the quiet alone time.

I need to figure this out bc DH's dad comes tomorrow for Xmas. Part of me wants to be like this is natural and it's my house but I'm not there yet! He's also the conservative type so I guess I'll be...

Yup I usually leave the room to get him latched on, and then use an A&A blanket to cover myself with and go back in with the company. I don't want to be hidden away! Not to mention, you really...

If I'm at home then I mostly just nurse him if I need to. I've used a cover (A and A blanket) a few times, but that was only because my dad and brothers were over. If it is my mom, MIL, female friends,...

Yes, but it depends on who's around. I nurse openly (no cover) around my family and my female friends. When my in laws are over, I always leave the room and I don't mind; it gives me a welcomed break...

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!

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...
