Abstract:
This device, a nursing cover-up (10), allows a nursing mother to breast feed her child in public without fear of exposing herself to others, but allows herself to view the child during the feeding (19). The nursing cover-up is a piece of fabric attached to the front of the mother's clothing by clips, clamps, or fasteners (12A & 12B) or by optional neck strap (17). The nursing cover-up has a flexible shapeable coated wire (15) sewn into the upper edge of the nursing cover-up (10) that provides support to the nursing cover-up allowing the mother to shape or mold the edge of the nursing cover-up outward (19); thus permitting her to see the child throughout feeding while prohibiting others from seeing in. The shield and slit opening (16 & 18) provides access for the mother's hand to the underside of the nursing cover-up permitting her to move or manipulate her nipple as needed. A pocket is provided for storage (20).
