Why do you love the boppy?

Question

It's been recommended a few times that I get a boppy pillow for nursing and I just can't picture why it's so helpful! What's the difference between this pillow and just some throw pillow or nothing at all? Thanks from a FTM who is utterly clueless!!!

Answer

I use mine every single day, everytime I nurse (unless I'm standing or laying in bed) I cant imagine holding my 17 lb baby for 20-30 minutes straight while he eats. My arms would get too tired. Plus he doesn't nap, so it's the only "relaxing" I get. He also used it for propping, and tummy time. I've been debating buying a new one, ours is starting to flatten out because it gets so much use. It's definitely a must have baby item for me, but every mama is different.

Answer

Love my boppy! I’ve used it for all my kids and still use it to nurse my two year old. It’s just so awkward to hold them high enough off your lap to nurse for so long all day!

Answer

I only used mine for the first couple weeks and then it got annoying so I just started using a couch pillow to rest my arm on. My son is 2 1/2 months now and I sometimes use it to prop him sitting up for a few minutes otherwise it's just a waste of space lol

Answer

I love my boppy! I have small babies and it helps for me to rest my arms on something while the baby feeds. If baby falls asleep in my arms, I use the pillow to support babies weight as well. I’ve had the same pillow for almost 3 years.

Answer

I LOVE mine! It’s for sure just personal preference. I hated using normal pillows, I could never get them positioned right, and I like the boppy because it give me something extra to lean on kinda!

Answer

Nothing.... I found it got in the way and a pillow was just as good. Can’t even tell you what happened to the one we had lol

Answer

We used it all the time to prop my son up to get him off the back of his head. It is also helpful for modified tummy time as well.

Answer

Thanks! Not the responses I expected at all! This was my first thought, that it just seems pointless.

Answer

I used it for tummy time, placing it behind him when he was learning to sit up, and now he lays on it when he has a bottle... it’s a must have for me! 😉

Answer

I love mine! To me it was probably my favorite product with my baby! I would invest in it for sure if you see breastfeeding and for me it worked so much better than any other pillow since it’s comfy for baby and forms to your body.
