  Breastfeeding in public: How to do it without feeling embarrassed There's no doubt that breastfeeding is one of the most natural things in the world. But for many women, the act of nursing in public can be an embarrassing experience. There are a few things you can do to make the experience more comfortable for yourself and those around you. First, find a place to breastfeed that is comfortable and private. A quiet corner in a park or a secluded spot in a restaurant may be ideal. If you're at home, consider nursing in your bedroom or another private space. Once you're settled, use a breastfeeding cover if you feel more comfortable. These covers provide privacy and can help you feel more confident nursing in public. If you don't have a cover, try to be discreet. Use a blanket or a shawl to cover yourself as much as possible. And if you're worried about people staring, make eye contact and smile. Most people are simply curious and aren't trying to be rude. Final
