michy-lou: What is the Babette thing you used?
basically a huge bib so baby is completly covered - no muslins falling off etc. Used it twice more yesterdy evening when we had ameal with the in laws:

this is us using it (whilst H fed me my starter as Sarah decided she HAD to be fed as it arrived!) there is a feeding baby under there somewhere!! Underside is muslin so you can flip it over your shoulder to burp.
