Two questions:

1. what are the laws in TN governing the rights of bfing in public?

2. what is your website for the slings?

Thanks! Very Happy

I am not Scout but I know the answers to your questions. TN just passed a law last week saying moms can breast feed in public.
The website is

Tennesse does not have laws forbidding bfip, but does not explicitly protect it either. I nurse everywhere and have never had anyone ask me not to. I think at this point, most businesses don't want to go there, KWIM?

My website (awesomely designed by Prescott) is http://www.theslingset.com Very Happy

Scout, what kind of material is that sling made out of on your website? It looks like fleece?

Oops Janna, we were posting at the same time and I just now came back to this thread. I didn't know about the new law. How did I miss that??

Becky, that material is the bain of my existence right now. It's hella hard to find, like, impossible, and my source is running out. I can't meet demand and it's so stressing me out. It's not fleece. It's not like anything else, really. The outside looks kind of like a pique knit, like a polo shirt would be made of, but it has a soft brushed finish with a bit of a knap to it that the velcro on the support sash can stcik directly to. It never snags or pills and it looks exactly the same after you wash it a zillion times. The inside is just kind of like a flat tshirt or wrong side of a sweatshirt.
