I bought this because my four month old boy can be so active while nursing (kicking and squirming). It is impossible for me to hold onto a blanket and him at the same time (sometimes I feel like I need three hands just to hold onto him). And I got tired of having to go to an empty room (or the car) every time I nursed him outside our home. I resisted buying this at first because it seemed so pricy. I finally broke down when I had a baby shower to attend and thought it would be rude to hang out in a bedroom half the time. I am so glad I bought it becuase now I use it everywhere, even in restaurants.

The great thing about this (besides the hands-free covering) is that the top stays open, so I can see what he is doing at all times, without having to let go of him. And it is pretty big so even when he kicks, I still stay covered. The fabric is pretty light weight, which will be good during the summer. There are pockets in the bottom corners, so I think I could weight it down and still use it outside even if it's windy, but I haven't tested that yet.
