Benefits of technology

The invention is a nursing slip that only covers the mother, not the mother and child, which reduces discomfort for both. It supports breastfeeding while maintaining mother's privacy. The slip is made of stretchable material that can adjust to size variations and is secured with snaps or straps. It can be easily positioned and adapted to size changes in the nursing breast. The technical effects of this invention are discreet, comfortable, and adaptable to size changes.

Nursing covers typically lack discreteness.
Furthermore, nursing covers can lead to physical discomforts, for both mother and child, such as feelings of being overly hot or claustrophobia for infant.

Abstract

A nursing slip and method of use include a material formed in a conical shape to conform to the shape of a breast. The nursing slip includes a central opening for passage of the nipple through the nursing slip. The central opening surrounds the areola of the breast. A nursing mother locates the nursing slip around the breast and positions it to surround the areola. The nursing slip is concealed under the clothing of the mother and bra. To nurse an infant, the mother exposes the areola and nipple to the infant. The nursing slip remains to cover the breast from observers and provide a level of modesty in public.
