ABSTRACT:
A nursing garment has a close-knit upper portion which lies over the shoulder of the nursing mother, which extends down into an expanded, open-knit lower portion which covers the breast and at least part of the baby while nursing, so that the upper portion may be used for burping the baby, and the lower portion is sufficiently opaque to provide privacy to the mother, yet adequately open to allow sufficient ventilation for the baby. In one embodiment, the garment is provided with two sides to cover both breasts, and in another embodiment, a single side is covered, in which embodiment the upper edge of the upper edge of the upper, close-knit portion is weighted to securely maintain the garment in place over the mother's shoulder.
