This list was written by a friend of mine,...Dyana-<br /><br />This list was written by a friend of mine, named Alexa. My name is Caroline, and this is my blog.<br /><br />While I cannot speak for Alexa, I think the point is that it's unfortunate that women feel the need to cover up while feeding their baby. Not that this is the woman's fault, but just how society treats breastfeeding in general. Naturally, if it makes a woman more comfortable, and it enables her to breastfeed than I think it's good that she uses a nursing cover as opposed to not breastfeeding at all! <br /><br />I have a lot of friends that use covers. However, with my son, he got very very hot, sweaty, and fussy using a cover, and would cry and refuse to eat. So, I felt that a cover impeded my breastfeeding.<br /><br />I wish you the best of luck with your business, and I'm glad that you are encouraging women to breastfeed! I am hopeful that one day, women will not feel any shame or the need to hide when they feed their babies. = )<br /><br />~CarolineThe Feminist Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08948064807428373346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872184645946304889.post-63317509935446554252011-07-03T11:45:09.852-04:002011-07-03T11:45:09.852-04:00Hi Alexa,

(I noticed your comment at the end of your blog). I have recently started an estore www.molokomama.com that caters to nursing moms. I sell nursing bracelets, breast pads, and nursing cover. I think it is a very personal choice and would encourage a nursing cover up if it meant a new mom would breast feed or not. I love to see moms breastfeeding without covers but i totally understand the modesty and uncomfortableness of trying to nurse a baby in public.Dyana Cloustonhttp://www.molokomama.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872184645946304889.post-9444551511251268702011-06-26T12:20:59.613-04:002011-06-26T12:20:59.613-04:00Loved this post as a new Momma of a whole 2 weeks ...Loved this post as a new Momma of a whole 2 weeks and 5 days! I actually don't have or haven't tried most of these...I had a nursing tank and it broke, but I think I'm sending my hubs to get more. We just had our first house visitors, and not having a tank was annoying! Prior to that, I just walked around topless...Kalia feeds so often, it just seemed pointless to wear anything! haha!<br /><br />I haven't done a - f on 9 yet, but number 10 is most definitely something I need already!!

So worth it in the end:) <br /> Good nursing pads that are durable are always a must. The necklace idea is one I never thought of especially when they get to the age when they are oh so distracted & seem to not be interested.
