    Giveaway Time!! Nursing cover by Cami

    For all you breastfeeding moms, or soon to be breastfeeding moms, or friends of breastfeeding moms...this one is for you! Cami from Covers by Camilla has offered a free nursing cover to one of my lucky readers. Cami is a sponsor a local swap that's this Saturday the 27th. Be sure to check out http://www.fraserfields.blogspot.com/ for more details.
    I have to say, I have a nursing cover that was given to me by my mother in law and I love it. It is not your ordinary little cover that you just drape over baby. It is just like Cami's, and I couldn't have done without it.

    Each nursing cover is sewn by Cami personally and includes the following features:

    • lightweight cotton fabric keeps you and your baby cool
    • rounded boning in neckline allows eye contact between you and your baby
    • adjustable neck strap held securely in place with D-rings so your baby can't pull the cover down
    • pocket in right corner to store nursing pads or other small items
    • wash cloth in left corner for wiping up small messes
    • generous size accomodates big babies and provides full coverage for you
    Here's how to win: (Separate comment for each entry please)
    Mandatory entry:
    Head over to Cami's blog and look under the shop tab. Come back and comment to let me know which cover you would choose.

    Optional Entries:

    Oh yes...and I feel compelled to mention that if you have been here for previous giveaways, there is often a little twist. I'll keep you in suspense over what that may be!

    That's it. The contest will start now, and end Thursday of next week (March 4th). Good luck!

    I was not compensated in any way shape or form for this giveaway. I am hosting this item because I believe in its usefulness and want to support a fellow mother in her efforts to earn extra income for her family.
