sterla - well done, that's an awesome effort! It's great to know it can be done, very inspiring!

I used NS's with my DS (only for a few months) and always found them a real nuisance (but we didn't ever have any success attaching without them). As I mentioned earlier, my sister managed to drop the NS's (miraculously somehow!), but I know it's not always that easy - and you are obviously proof that it doesn't HAVE to be done.

Do you have any tips for getting used to using them in public? That was something I always struggled with - how to be discreet and not flash my entire boob in the process of combining nipple, NS and bubba!
