Freebies from the Crib: Peekaboobaby


No matter which side of the "women's right to flash their breasts in public to feed their child" debate you may fall, I think every breastfeeding woman sometimes finds herself in a place where a cover might make her feel a little more comfortable breastfeeding in a public place.

These nursing covers provide hands free coverage even during the sometimes tricky "latch-on" while also providing discreet viewing for mother only. Say goodbye to crazy breastfeeding contortions! The high quality, hand-picked designer fabrics and extra large terry pocket (good for holding anything from a nursing pad to a cell phone and wiping baby's mouth) make PEEKABOOKBABY covers unique.


And if the fantastic product isn't enough to make you love Peekaboobaby, Julie also gives back to moms in need. When her best friend used a Peekaboobaby everyday for eight months in the hospital as she pumped (using a double pump) for her baby, Curran, who was fighting a battle with infant leukemia, Julie realized what a lifesaver her covers could be. They allow mothers with sick children to stay by their bedside and pump while talking to doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff all at the same time. Curran passed away one year ago this August, and in his honor, Julie regularly makes & donates Peekaboobaby's to the hospital for use by mom's in the same dire situation as her dear friend. I love that.

Perfect for being out with the baby or for pumping at work (in the not so private pump room).

I have seen a few women using these (one at a football game and one at Disneyland) and I wondered where they got them! It's a great idea and being a nursing mom would love to get one! Thanks for the post!

My baby is an expert now, but I remember well my first baby and the struggles with latching on. What a sweet gift it would be for my little sister, expecting in December.

Wow. Those are beautiful. I would totally use one with my new baby coming in March!

Cute, probably so much easier than a blanket, or even a sling for older babies.

Love that story about the mom whose baby had cancer...so sad though!

so sweet. as a mother who had a preemie who was in NICU for 5 weeks and had to pump exclusively for 3 months, i can definitely relate. with my second child, i was the WORST discreet nurser ever, so this would be SO great for me!

What an inspiring yet sad story. I'd probably keep the nursing cover for myself instead of giving it to one of my many friends having babies in the next few months. I just love the fabric too much. Is that selfish of me? :D

This is great! My baby is in the popping on and off/nipple biting stage of nursing. It's quite lovely. This would make it so much easier to nurse in public.

Even though my daughter has become a master of nursing in public - this would be a great gift for her.

My mother-in-law gave me a shield type blanket that she used, and I didn't like the hula-hoop that was in it! I would love to try a "modern" one, that looks good too!
