Best nursing pillow?

Question

Which was your favorite nursing pillow and why?

Answer

I had a friend give me a Boppy. But the lactation consultant I visited with had a My Brest Friend, and I NEVER had a bad latch when using it -- even when I went in there to discuss latch issues! I was super excited when a coworker asked if I wanted her My Brest Friend. It's night and day using it vs. the Boppy. Nursed using the Boppy for 5-ish weeks. Baby is now 8 weeks.

Answer

I have a boppy , but as any other pillow, it gets worn out and doesn't hold the baby strong enough for me as he's getting bigger... The Brest friend I used in the hospital , it felt more sturdy to support the baby for longer period of time... Realistically, you can just use a regular pillow to prop under the baby ... But if you really want one , I'd go with the Brest friend

Answer

Here is what the my brest friend looks like.

Answer

I have a boppy, but it was kind of awkward for me. I think the my breast friend would be better. I don't use a pillow any more.

Answer

I use the boppy pillow and it is amazing. I don't know about the breast friend one though. Maybe it is equally as good. My baby was in the nicu after birth for 3 days and when I was in there to feed him I used a regular pillow so when we got him home and used boppy it was like a dream ! It holds him so well. And I love that he can sit in it.. Although I assume most newborns can't sit in it like my boy- he's a big baby (10 lbs 8 oz)

Answer

I love my boppy!  My LO was tiny at birth (6 lbs 1 oz) and I had to stuff a blanket under it for a few weeks. But now that she's about 12 lbs it works great!

Answer

Boppy because I already had one!

Answer

I used a regular pillow. The boppys hole was too big, he fell through the hole. And I never had a breast friend, I have heard they are amazing. But a regular pillow worked great for me.
