Boy coloured nursing cover.

Oh the idea of a flesh coloured one, yuck!

The idea of nursing covers at all annoys me slightly as I don't think women should feel that they have to cover up when feeding. I did get one for expressing in the car and picked one that looked like a shawl and went with my clothes.

I remember one of my colleagues talking me out of buying a pink changing bag too because ds4 was a boy. I thought given that it was me carrying the thing, it shouldn't matter but then thought that people might think that I had it in pink because I wanted a girl and that that wouldn't be fair to ds4. So I got it in red and later saw the pink one and was annoyed with myself as it was actually nicer.

Which really just goes to show that I spend far too much time thinking about what other people are thinking when they're probably not actually all that bothered!

How weird.

Is anyone else visualizing a 'boy-coloured' nursing cover as some kind of bizarre skintone cammo gear, so that you'd appear to have a lump of flesh growing oddly out of your boob?

Just me?

I'll get me coat.

I have seen similar on local selling pages. Like bouncy chairs that are blue or green being deemed inappropriate for a baby girl. And when I was looking for a second hand bumbo for DD, everyone I mentioned it to (in the hope they had one to get rid of!) said 'you'll be wanting a pink one then'. Eh, no, she was 16 weeks old ffs.

I get an awful lot of comments at playgroup if I dress her in anything other than pink too, it is pathetic and in no way influences my decision to dress her in DS's hand-me-downs on playgroup days at all

He would catch Teh Gay off a girly nursing cover surely?

I'm sure he would probably prefer to eat without a big sheet thing draped over his head regardless of colour.

Ah, that's what a boy color isn't. How peculiar.
I don't often come into the area, but saw the thread title in Last 15 minutes and couldn't resist.
Ridiculous to imagine a baby having an opinion, let alone appreciate it. And WTAF is the ;) all about?
