Honestly, I see both sides. I breastfeed both my kids 18 months. It’s a pain to cover and my 2 always pulled the cover off. If you’re shopping I found a dressing room is a nice private place. If I was at a restaurant we always asked for a booth so if I need to breastfeed I could put my back to other people. My husband was really supportive of me breastfeeding but he was also very defensive of people staring. He didn’t want anyone to say negative things about us.
So my advice. Talk to him. Is he embarrassed? Is this part of his beliefs? Modesty is a huge part of some religions. Is he self conscious about others looking? Try to help him understand and find a good plan that works for your family.

Wear a tank top and then a t-shirt pull the shirt up and the tank top and the t-shirt will create a sort of cover that doesn’t completely make either of you to hot. Obviously this is just an option I don’t think it’s fair that he would even ask you to cover.

I think it’s rather naive and immature of him to think breasts are over-sexualised. Tell him, you’re feeding his child. They’re simply ‘baby udders’

Yup cover him right up so he can’t see you freely feeding his child 
be sure to continue his stupidity when your baby starts weening on to solids because we wouldn’t want this to offend him either
Chuck a blanket over his head when u have to put over baby then make him wait like u and baby
Breastfeeding is not a sexual act and anyone sexualizing it needs their head examined. Would he wanna eat under a blanket? It’s amazing you feel comfortable nursing in public, keep it up and tell him to get over it!

I breastfed in public and I always put a very light shirt or blanket over my shoulder and babies head leaving a small gap so baby could breathe.
Tell him to cover his face when he eats in a restaurant because you don’t want people to see him feeding himself in public. Your baby is doing the same, eating!

When I first started breastfeeding I was the opposite, I always tried to cover in public and it was one day out at lunch with my father, husband, sister and brother in law and I was fretting that the cloth I had kept slipping and what if people seen and all of them said not to care if people see and that my son must have been very hot trying to feed while being covered. I then decided they were right and I shouldn’t care what other people think if they try to sexualize feeding a baby then that’s their sick perverted problem.
Ever since then I would whip out and feed were ever I was. Tell your husband to genuinely try eat his food with a blanket covered over his head and see how hot and uncomfortable it is.
I have yet to ever have anyone give a strange look or feel like they were staring while I was breastfeeding you do get to a point where your so use to it and do it so well that it genuinely just looks like your cuddling your baby.
Tell your husband that the health and benifits of breastfeeding your baby comes before his insecurities of other people seeing your body uncovered.

Dude if you’re comfortable doing what you do then do it. Your husband is making the situation more than what it is. People aren’t just looking at you thinking about your boobs, you’re feeding your child. There’s nothing sexual about that so your husband is just weird.
Its wild how BF has become this huge issue. Its literally nature. Its why we even have bewbs. Every mammal does it. There used to be what nurses that would feed the baby if the mother couldn’t for whatever reason. Like so much has changed but not for the better and it’s so silly to me that out of all the problems in this world people are still focusing on this? Like sure kids are starving in some countries but oh my God a boobie! /rant

OMG he is your husband. The fun bags were part of the conception. So why is it so tabu? If you have to cover so should he. Who wants to hear his chewing anyway!? Wow this is off for me. I whipped it out whenever they were hungry. Didn’t care where. Never had an issue. Dinner table ect. If you eat dinner at the table why not the baby?? People now days need to just chill. No one ever told me to cover up. This generation is redonckulous!

If you nurse like a pro you pull your shirt up, attach baby, baby hides boob…boom. If you are pulling your boob out of the top of your shirt it not only shows your entire boob but also stretches out the shirt and your breast tissue. Which can cause sagging. They made great shirts that conceal a lot better. I’m from Texas and totally get it. It’s way too hot to put a blanket over the whole time. Do your best but also tell him to grow up.

My ex was the same way. I used to have to take the baby to the ladies restroom. Even at home, when we had company, I had to go to the bedroom to feed the baby. My ex was such a prude. He wouldn’t even take me to the movies and let me feed the baby in the dark for fear somebody might see something. All I can think of is to get a yard of the lightest weight fabric you can find. Cut it to the size you need and carry it with you. Then drape it over your husband’s head while you’re breastfeeding your baby. He probably won’t see a thing. Failing that, you can probably use it for you and your baby. Or just not take your husband with you when you go anywhere.

I can see this. Right or wrong there has to be a way to compromise. If too hot find a very thin breathable cloth to use. Men dont always feel the same way about things and let’s face it their brain is very different. I have an excellent hubby but I could see him thinking other men was looking, or not wanting my body exposed. Right or wrong I’ve always stayed on one rule when addressing my hubby and kids… If it’s a real issue to them I dont minimize it, many things that can upset me may seem petty or unimportant to another but may affect me greatly. Like I say compromise but within reason, it’s not that hard and really if it’s your biggest issue then just be grateful. His reason may be rooted in reasons that aren’t “to control” or even “jealousy”, he may feel it as a protective instinct because again right or wrong he may know others that can see are not thinking about it in a natural, mothering sense.

I would tell him to throw a blanket over his head and eat and drink with it on in the heat and see how he likes it. Mine are older now but when I breastfed I didn’t cover up. It’s got. It’s uncomfortable. I literally don’t see the big deal. It’s not sexual it’s nourishing your child. My husband didn’t care and works defend me anyone would say anything, which was very rare when he was around. I’m not feeding my child in a bathroom either.

Your husband sound like a knob to be honest.

Or a string top with crop over it and u just have pull string down a little to feed … stand your ground you r doing great

Don’t go out in public with the baby and your husband. Politely tell him that you can’t make your baby suffer with a blanket over his face (in the heat or not, it is NOT recommended to use a blanket bc it deprives your baby of oxygen). So you opt to stay home. If he insists, then go to the ladies room or bedroom to breast feed. Please do not let your husband’s prude insecurity prevail over your baby eating without being deprived of oxygen. I would dig my heels in on this one. Pick your battles is right. Feeding your baby comfortably without depriving him of oxygen is a fight worth going all the way to the mat for. Refuse to go in public with husband or anywhere he pulls this bs. Dig your heels in mama. In the end, you YOU are responsible for this baby and YOU know best. Compromise by not going in public. Don’t give an inch. Make him understand that when it comes to most issues in this life you defer to husband and do it his way. When it comes to the sustenance safety and basic human needs of your infant, bow to NO ONE. Even if you never get to leave the house with your husband, stay home for your won. Stick to your guns and to your gut mama. You got this.

You can literally see less of a boob while breastfeeding than in a tank top. If he wants to cover so badly, drape a blanket over his head. Also, unless he starts producing milk, I don’t think it really is his choice to began with. You are the one breastfeeding, he doesn’t get a say in what makes you comfortable.

It isn’t like you’re getting completely naked. It really sounds like he has some sexualization issues when it comes to breastfeeding. I would inform him that baby does not like to eat that way so if he feels uncomfortable, he can either stay home or eat his own food with a cover over his head. Breastfeeding in public is legally protected at the federal and ALL state levels here in the United States.

I’m in fl. I have 4 kids. My last 2 kids did not want to cover and I don’t blame them… so we didn’t. You can’t see much when babe is on the boob. Hubby needs to grow up and deal with it. You are legally protected, go into a corner to latch babe and then do whatever you were doing before.

He can be uncomfortable. There’s nothing wrong with feeding in public. I live in Florida and it’s to hot to cover a baby it’s dangerous. As for anyone who says to pump and feed a bottle. That’s your opinion and you are entitled to it but it’s not mine and I am also allowed my opinion. AND Floria law says a momma can breast feed anywhere she wants with out a cover. The Law is on a moms side. He needs to get over it

You can’t make your baby suffer it’s NOT recommended to cover your baby up in heat and especially in a hot country like florida. I’d personally either not go out in public with your husband or if your are just tell him it’s one of them things that’s not recommended it’s to dangerous. Could cause the baby to suffocate. This day and age it wouldn’t just be you doing it I’m sure lots of mommas on that end do it.

Tell him your breast feeding how you like it. If he doesn’t like it he can f##k off. So can anyone else. It’s your baby, your life, your body. he should not have a say on how you choose to feed your baby or anything else as controlling. He doesn’t own you. Don’t be so submissive. that is how you deal with this issue. Xx

And to add, you said your baby finds it uncomfortable and it’s too hot? Well damn mama do what is right for your baby!! Nobody else matters.
I’m so sorry your husband is uncomfortable when you feed your child in public. These pop ups are great for privacy. He can comfortably relax in it until you are done feeding & you can relax next to him without him stressing you out. Everyone will be staring at the pop up & not even notice you. Breastfeeding is hard enough without some jackass making things more difficult so keep on doing what works for you & your baby & best of luck Momma 
Let’s be clear… he doesn’t want people to see your boobs because in his mind boobs are “sexual” rather than for feeding a baby.
This post brings out a rage in me lol I’m mean, I would straight up say f all the way off then when he gets there he can f off again lol

Probably stupid question and maybe irrelevant but What is FTM?
Would he like his head completely covered in Florida heat while he eats? Until he starts eating that way tell him you will feed your child in a way that’s most comfortable for you and baby. Boobs are great to be seen by anyone and everyone until mom wants to feed her child. It pisses me off.
Wear a bra and singlet and then a tshirt over the top. Then you can pop your boob out under your tshirt and over your singlet. This only exposes the nipple for baby and no one sees anything. Simple

Unless YOU want to cover.
This is the natural mammalian process of feeding your young. There is nothing scandalous about it. And he needs to unpack these feelings in therapy cause woah.
He should be there to give the evil eye to anyone who wants to stare at you!
I’m currently breastfeeding and I have a very large chest, and I drive a school bus in the area I live in (k-12) so I don’t cover but I wear a cami under my shirts.
Shirt goes up, cami goes down, so only a little bit of skin is showing. Works perfect without a hot ass blanket or cover.
Just throw your whole husband in the trash.
I’d honestly ask him if he wants to try eating with a blanket over his head in the heat? Tell him to try it.
You cN be discrete without covering too, I wore a tank top, nursing bra underneath and another tank or t-shirt over top. Pull the top shirt up, bottom shirt down under your boob and open your bra and push that down. The only time anyone can see this way is if the baby unmatched and getting him latched. Sometimes I would hold a reviving blanket under my baby’s chin when he drools milk so it wouldn’t soak my shirt.
