Do you cover until you get them latched? I have problems with ds fighting me to latch, even tho I KNOW he wants it. And I'm not very experienced with it.

Hopefully soon I can afford some tanks & looser tops, I have a hard time with my shirts staying down in the back

I stay covered through as much of it as ds will tolerate lol. Sometimes the whole nursing session sometimes just long enough to latch. I prefer to stay covered but when a wiggly booby monster rips the cover away there isn't much use fighting it!

Yea he wasn't liking that cover over his head today & when I got to the car I realized you couldn't see any boob, just my back & side

I do not use a cover at all... Never have.... I pull my shirt down to my nipple and if anyone sees a nipple shot during attaching or detaching... They do....

I cover as not to offend anyone, some ppl can't understand we're simply feeding our kids

Sometimes people's poor fashion offends me... I wish THEY would cover up! LOL

Cover if YOU need to, but other people can look away. Yourr baby's needs trump people's feelings, in my book! :)

I cover with a light blanket for my own comfort. If I am home and around family and friends I don't cover.

 I've never been one to cover; my first dd took the cover off when she was a week old, and I didn't look back, lol. But I got some super thin over shirts to wear when i NIP. But I rarely walked around and NIP, except when grocery shopping with SO, lol.

I wear a nursing tank under my shirt so my belly and back aren't hanging out. I do try to cover with a burp cloth or receiving blanket when latching.
