Bebe au Lait's Hooter Hiders Nursing Cover, Apron, Shawl, Privacy Covers for Breast Feeding & Pumping, Breastfeeding Cover for Mom, Soft, & Breathable Muslin Cotton with 2 pockets -Verbena

I have to admit I first tried to save a few bucks and bought a cheaper nursing cover from one of the big chain stores thinking it would work the same. I could not have been more wrong. After using that cheap nursing cover ONCE I was turned off by it's cheap thin fabric and I felt like I was trying to cover up with a washcloth it was so small. So I gave in and ordered one of these Bebe Au Lait nursing covers hoping the price would be worth it... While you could always sew one of your own (or have a friend who's handy with the sewing machine make you one!) I found the Bebe Au Lait to be well worth the price. I think this fabric is lovely and classy! It's made with much more care and quality than the chain store cheap version I bought first, so I advise against making the same mistake I made. There are just a few baby products I feel are simply worth the extra cost - the Boppy, the Sophie giraffe, etc - and this item has made the list. I especially appreciate the two pockets which are the perfect size for my Lansinoh breast pads and make it so easy to discreetly change pads. The second pocket (since there are two!) I use for my Latch Assist. The pockets are also made of terry cloth to help you wipe up any moisture, a fantastic detail! Yesterday I found I was even able to tighten the strap easily with one hand during a feeding. The curved boning which allows you to see your baby has held up well after being stuffed into the diaper bag for a few weeks now. Finally, the main point with this product is to cover up! The Bebe Au Lait is large enough for me to feel comfortable breastfeeding in almost any setting while still allowing me a view of my baby. I'm all for public breastfeeding and moms have the right to do so, not all moms feel the need to cover up and that's ok with me because breastfeeding is natural and beautiful. But that said, many moms prefer privacy and more personal modesty when it comes to breastfeeding and this nursing cover is such a benefit to us. I'm very pleased with this purchase, this will definitely be one of the first items I think of as a baby shower gift for my friends!

The first time around, my wife tried to use a receiving blanket, or a blanket with a neck loop attached. Needless to say, our baby hated either of these and threw them off. With our second baby, we tried a couple different nursing cover, and ANY real nursing cover is MUCH better because it has lighter, breathable fabric, and more importantly, it has a built in ring that gives it some shape at the top. This makes a window where Mommy can see Baby, Baby can see Mommy, and it keeps Baby from feeling smothered. All good things! The two models we tried were the Bebe au Lait Premium Cotton Nursing Cover and the Udder Covers brand. Our feeling was that you get what you pay for. The Bebe au Lait is definitely better, but to be fair, it costs 2-2.5x as much. Features that make the Bebe au Lait better are that the ring at the top is nicer--more of a rounded D-shape, whereas the Udder Cover one has a flimsy-feeling V-shape one. The fabric is also nicer on the Bebe au Lait: it's smoother/softer, and it's a little bigger, so it provides more coverage if Baby is wiggly. The terry-cloth pockets were never particularly useful as pockets for us, though the blotting was occasionally useful during the frequent spit-up phase. They are, however, nice in that they provide just a little bit of weighting for it. For that reason, I would call the Bebe au Lait nursing cover the Cadillac model. The Udder Cover one is, however, a perfectly serviceable Toyota. (It does even have one advantage: it's smaller. It takes up less space in a diaper bag, and it's even small enough that I can easily stuff it in the pocket of my cargo shorts whereas the Bebe au Lait one is too big and bulky to be comfortable.) My advice is to get a Bebe au Lait If you're going to be using it at all regularly; it is worth the one-time cost to get one as your primary nursing cover. The Udder Cover one makes a great backup to use when you're washing your main one, or if you need to stash a spare somewhere.

This is a great nursing cover. With my son, I would usually just go into a dressing room or out to the car if I had to nurse him while we were out and about. Well, forget about that when you have 2! I can't believe I didn't buy one of these sooner! I can't think of one thing wrong with this, it's just great. Nice design (pretty, but subtle), easily adjustable neck tie, wire thingy that helps you to see what's going on down there (genious!). I didn't think much about the absorbant "pockets" on the inside bottom corners, but they have actually come in handy for spitup. Also, this folds up to be very compact...I fold it in half so that the wire part is very loosely folded, then just start rolling....it ends up about the size of a long hot dog and sits hiding at the bottom of my diaper bag until I need it. The only thing its missing are heavy metal anchors to keep it in place against a baby who is *determined* to see what's going on out there:) But then, I guess that would be a liability issue :oP

I had a nursing cover that was also a car seat cover but it was so tight it was extremely uncomfortable to wear and breastfeed in public. Baby and I were going to be going on a plane ride soon and needed a better cover and this one was perfect! It was loose but still covered me and it let me have perfect view of baby while I was feeding without exposing myself. It was a great buy and is super cute! Also has cloth like corners which were a life saver when he would spit up a little and all I had to do was lift the corner and wipe his face!

I really like this nursing cover. It has convenient terrycloth corners that I can use to wipe my baby's mouth. The pattern is subtle and not too crazy like some others out there. It is the perfect size, and the way that the top edge stands up so that I can still see my baby is great. There are two things that bother me about it, though. The adjustable neck slips a lot. It's too easy for the fabric to pull through the rings. It's impossible to readjust while it's on and my arms are busy with my baby. This often leaves the opening at the top flopping over and me exposed. There has to be a better way to secure the adjustable neck. It can also get quite hot under this cover. If a more breathable fabric could be utilized it would help a lot.

Why I never thought to get this as a baby shower gift is beyond me. I first decided that I would need this product for Disney World. I wanted something light colored so it would not absorb the Florida heat and make it unbearable for my son. This design Chateau Silver was classy, unisex, light and very, very comfortable in the hot humid weather of Disney World. It was easy to put on, simply hang the entire cover over your neck and you are good to go. He couldn't yank it off, he couldn't kick it away. Perfect! I was very relaxed and comfortable enough to nurse him with my feet folded on any chair or bench for support, even wearing a skirt, and not worrying that I might show off more than I desired. Don't let the image on the page here fool you, the cover was generous in length and breadth, enough for myself and the tyke, and I am a size 14! Clean up was very easy, just throw in the wash and the curved stiff collar came out just fine even through the dryer, no ironing or starching business. I did use gentle fabric wash just in case, I love the design so very much! If there's one thing I didn't use it was the side pockets. The good thing about those is that it is terry cloth and weighed the entire cover down enough to not get windblown after catching a gust or two. Neat! All in all, if I had one word to describe this item, I would deem it a Lifesaver. You there, public nursing mother struggling with a blanket, get this item!!! Worth every penny, and after the breastfeeding stage, also great for them to take naps in your arms. Or to use as a stroller cover. The possibilities are endless!

This was a great product! My wife was uncomfortable with revealing her breast in public to feed our baby so, I bought her this. This worked perfectly. It was something light-weight that you could toss into any bag and have at the ready at all times. It did a good job at covering and providing privacy. We highly recommend this product!

It was hard to find a print I liked that wasn’t too girly (since I have a boy) and was also decent quality. This is a really nice print, neutral enough, and the hoop is nice and big so very comfortable for baby and easy to see him in. Someone who is really modest might worry about someone looking down from behind them, but I just sit with a wall behind me and then it’s not an issue. It is way better than the right car seat covers.

This cover gave me confidence to nurse in public and I don't go out without it. I struggled using scarves or muslins as I ended up exposing myself - baby struggles to latch. Both hands are free and I'm not exposed. Really good quality.

I am not being paid to write this. Promise. Just a nursing mama helping others. I like to cover up when nursing in public. And this cover is perfect. It’s so easy to see your baby. And it creates this intimate experience with your baby. I just put two rocks in each pocket and it stays down if windy. Size is perfect. Nothing I would change. Get it !

Ich habe mir das Stillcape nach Vorbild einer Amerikanerin gekauft. In den USA benutzt wohl jeder so ein Stillcape. Das Stillcape sieht schön aus, der Halsausschnitt ist einstellbar je nach dem wie lang oder kurz man es braucht. Innen sind zwei Baumwolltäschchen in die man Schnuller, Stillhütchen oder sonst was rein tun kann. Ich benutze die Täschchen zum Babymund abwischen. Oben am Stillcape ist es verstärkt mit einem Draht damit man wie durch ein Guckloch auf das Kind heruntersehen kann. Es bedarf durchaus etwas Übung es stressfrei anzuwenden (wir haben es zu Hause ab und zu geübt), und es wird im Sommer auch richtig warm unter dem Vorhang, aber wenn man an Orten ist wo man nicht den Busen blank auspacken will (Restaurant oder Cafe oder im Zug) ist das Stillcape super. Ich habe auch nicht immer Lust auf dem Klo zu stillen o.ä. und so kann ich ganz diskret stillen, ohne dass ich mich beobachtet fühle oder andere sich gestört fühlen (was es ja immer noch gibt leider). Ich habe es mir gekauft da ich eine sehr grosse Brust habe, und daher eher nicht "diskret" stillen kann. Und es erfüllt seinen Zweck und sieht auch noch schön aus dazu. Empfehlenswert!

Per chi allatta è semplicemente l'ideale, ben fatto e di ottima qualità. Si allatta in tutta tranquillità ovunque ci si trova.

Apesar de que no le ha gustado a mi bebe para lo que yo pretendía ( cubrir quando le estuviera dando el pecho) se saca mucho provecho cuando pega sol al carrito o maxicosi del nene, para abrigar le sin pasarse, para proteger del viento o como sabanita en algún apuro en la calle. 1001 funciones.
