Well it's a bar and grill, but we go every Friday for fish fry and sometimes randomly during the week to say hello, it's where I work so it's my second home/family. Have also nursed while drinking a beer there lol. I don't think it's a big deal, unless you are getting wasted.
I still need to practice NIP. I keep saying I will at home with a blanket but it's so much easier just to whip it out. And I don't ever want to wear a real bra again.
I meant to practice first, but I went out one day and ended up taking longer than expected so I did what I had to do. I actually felt like a pro, it was so much easier than I thought! At home I have to be on a specific chair with a specific pillow lol

I totally did this. It was a Sunday afternoon and the game was on. Me and DH were out looking at houses and needed a break. So I NIP and drank a beer while doing it. There were only a few men in the bar and I'm pretty sure they didn't even know there was a baby in the bar. The staff was great and we made jokes about it.
Babies aren't allowed in bars here. He's been to a cafe and a Mexican restaurant with me though. I nursed at the cafe and had a total "wardrobe malfunction," lol. I'm not real modest though so idc (I'd go topless all summer if it weren't for prudish US laws). I just use an a&a swaddle for a cover...putting off buying a real one. Are they worth buying?

All of the places around here are bar/restaurants. So far the only "night out" was when I brought her to an event at a Chinese restaurant (my friends met up for a memorial toast to a friend who passed away 10 years ago.) I wore her in the Moby and she slept the whole time.
I've gone out to eat with her a few times too and nursed her at the table/booth. Once I used a cover but the other time I was wearing lightweight scarf so I just put that over her.

I just use the a&a swaddle as a cover too. I've read reviews of covers and they seem a waste.

We've been to bar/restaurants several times with our LO. I'm sure I was drinking my beer while nursing. I guess I didn't even think anything of it. If people had any judgements about it I didn't notice and no one said anything.
