So im going to breastfeed my baby when he's born. I started to think how to feed him when I go out with him, like in a restaurant .. How do yall lady's do it ? Do ya breastfeed right there or is there a way to put it in a bottle but then again how to make it warm for him or would he drink it cold.. First time mom /.\

Like the above said you can always use a cover. I did for the first month or so and then stopped using a cover because it was a hassle I thought and my daughter would sweat really bad and of course didnt like it because who would. If you want to nurse in public you can always sit in front of a mirror and nurse baby and you can see what others see. Thats what I did.

Your breastmilk is good for about 4hrs at room temperature I believe. Refrigerated its good 2-3 days. Frozen- months.

You can feed in public covered up with a breastfeeding apron or blanket or go to the restroom if it has an area to sit, I usually expressed my milk into a bottle if I knew I was going out somewhere. Fed the baby before leaving,  so I know I had at least 2hrs & made a back up bottle of expressed milk. U can get a breast pump or hand express it.
