Newborn in public?

cc

Has anyone taken baby out in public place yet?? I wanna go to the mall and take advantage of some black Friday sales bc I really need some clothes to fit postpartum body. I don't have anyone who can babysit though and I'm really worried about him catching the flu! If I do take him I plan to keep his carseat covered with a blanket but I'm sure he will atleast want out to nurse at some point. Ugh having a newborn in flu season is not fun! Never dealt with this with my summer babies 😒 what should I do??
