Modest Mums Nursing Covers
Posted on 28. Jun, 2007 by Mom Mag in Baby Care Products, Family Product Reviews
Beautiful and practical nursing covers to help keep you covered up while your baby nurses. A wide variety of stylish fabrics are available and all styles are reversible.
What’s The Cost: Prices Vary.
If you’ve ever been a nursing mother you know that although it’s natural, beautiful, and necessary, breastfeeding in public isn’t always comfortable. A little blanket or burp cloth can be ok for keeping things under wraps, but that only lasts as long as it takes for your little nursling to grow old enough to start flapping their arms around while they eat.
Modest Mums Nursing Covers are the perfect solution to this dilemma. These lovely, reversible covers are well-made, soft, and come in a wide variety of fabric types and prints in order to suit your personality and wardrobe. Although they easily roll right up into a small bundle that can easily fit in your purse, backpack, and diaper bag, it is wide enough when in use to cover you, your baby, and your post-partum love handles as well.
One of my favorite features about these covers is the neckline that features a flexible-but-firm wire of some sort (I assume plastic because it is nicely lightweight) that holds the fabric away from your body so that you can still make eye contact with your baby and make sure they are latched on correctly. I love it that the baby doesn’t have to have the fabric sitting right on their face, making them hot. They will get plenty of air flow while cozily tented under these covers.
Most mothers know that babies go through a stage when they are easily distractible while eating. When they hit that stage, even the most modest mother can find herself with her breast hanging out for all the world to see when her little 6 month old decides they have to break away from their meal to check out the noise they just heard. This cover is especially great for that time period, even for bottle feeding moms. Just the ability to cover the baby up, and to block out some of the light and visual stimulation can be a big help.
