The boning allows you to see your baby so it's easier to latch the baby on.

I'm sure I can figure it out, but you should have seen me with a sling until I figured that one out, ha ha.

There was NO WAY possible for me to nurse discretely for months after my daughter was born. Even now, it's very difficult to be discreet. Using a nursing cover allows me to be a part of everything and still promote breastfeeding while being modest. A nursing cover is GREAT for moms like myself. I've also introduced the idea of nursing in public to many new moms this way. They would have been more likely to stop breastfeeding at an early age because of the inconvenience without a nursing cover. I am large busted and had latch issues for months.
