Why in God's name would you want a horrible paisley multi-coloured thing?
After recently having to express in the car and discovering that the kitchen apron I thought would do the job nicely because I am too tight to buy a nursing cover was wholly inadequate as in there was always one breast showing, I thought I might invest in one of these. But with one or two exceptions they are hopelessly garish! Why would you want to drape yourself in one of them?

a breast that's not a round silicone globe and that's actually functioning as nature intended?

nah way!

The funny thing is that wearing one of those things is going to draw so much more attention to you than if you just fed as normal!

I would never want to cover up like that for bfing but expressing is a bir different. I prefer my elongated nipples to be for my eyes only! But I couldn't wear something like that. Has anyone got any better ideas?

Omly in America would they also call nursing covers "Hooter Hiders" ! (see BALD's link)

chipmonkey · 21/09/2008 10:42

This is even worse!

sweetkitty · 21/09/2008 18:05

foxytocin · 21/09/2008 18:51

Fuck me Chipmonkey - that woman has been attacked by the 1970s

Now where can I get a neon flashing sign for my head that says 'warning working norks abound, avert ye eyes lest you be struck blind'

ChirpyGirl · 21/09/2008 19:47

this one is the best of them as it looks more like a 'normal' item of clothing, but what a hideous name!

'they found their nursing pillows to be a bit too bulky to travel with and with an eye toward solving that dilemma, developed the Belly Fish. '
so they thought pillows were too bluky and instead carry a pillow with 2 metres of cloth hanging off it?

ChirpyGirl · 21/09/2008 20:04

bluky?

chipmonkey · 21/09/2008 20:37

PMSL at that link, foxytocin!

Actually I do think a Pashmina is more like what I am looking for, Bumperlicious, deffo better than being attacked by the 1970's as wmmc says!
