My third hand: a breastfeeding aide

Abstract

A device designed to simplify the breastfeeding process. The invention is particularly useful to a breastfeeding mother. The device holds the mother's shirt securely out of the way by hooking onto her bra and her shirt, thereby freeing her hands to hold her baby and making expensive maternity shirts unnecessary.

I claim:  
     
         1 . An adjustable breastfeeding aide comprising of: 
 (a) two hooks (a large hook to hold the shirt and a small hook to hold the bra strap or shirt collar);    (b) a rotating center which allows the hooks to turn 360 degrees;    (c) an adjustable center which allows for different lengths;    (d) a ridged inside of each hook which grips and holds the cloth of the shirt and bra.    
     
     
         2 . A method of aiding a breastfeeding mother comprising the steps of: 
 (a) catch the bottom of a shirt with the large hook;    (b) pull the hook up, thereby bringing the shirt up over the breast;    (c) rotate the smaller hook to the proper angle to meet the bra strap or shirt collar;    (d) secure the shirt collar or bra strap with the smaller hook.
