XP: Please recommend your nursing cover! :)

Hey, all! It'll be my third, but I'm anticipating being more on the go and needing more controlled coverage than the standard blanket...p

please recommend your nursing cover. thanks!

Bebe au Lait, but DD has been pulling it off for months.  I find a nursing tank is really useful and I tend to avoid nursing in public when I can.

I NIP all the time I never limited when I went out with my baby.  To me it's not a big deal.  Just feeding my baby.  I've always used a big stretchy wrap (I own 3 of them).  IMO it's much better than a nursing cover because it's more versatile and you can cover the baby's head or just face or nothing at all.  It's helpful if they unlatch quickly so you can cover yourself with the wrap until you clip your nursing tank back up.  

This is something like what my wraps look like.  I pretty much never left home without one on when my baby was younger.

I used Bebe Au Lait and loved it until LO was about 6 mo. old and started pulling it off.  Then we NIP without a cover and just wrapped a blanket around LO but not over his face.  People just thought I was holding him.  No big deal at all.

I like the Hooter Hider. They have cute prints, it provides enough coverage and has a flexible strip in the front neckline so that you can pop it up and easily see your LO.
