What nursing pillow do I buy!!!??

Question

So we have almost everything for our little boys arrival April 1st, other then a couple odds and ends. One very important thing I still need is a nursing pillow. But I honestly don’t have a clue what’s good and what isn’t. I know they are basically all the same as they serve the same purpose but which one is best? 
Any recommendations??

Answer

With my first, I was gifted the My Brest Friend and a Boppy. Different people swore by each one. I am pretty tall so I didn’t find either super life changing (regular pillows would have been fine) though I think I did like the Boppy a little better for nursing once my daughter was a little bigger. The Boppy ended up being useful outside of nursing. It was really great for helping our girl sit up and practice tummy time.

Answer

Disliked nursing with a pillow. The only one that was ever beneficial was when I went to visit my lactation consultant and she had the firm, squared one. The only one that stayed in place enough to not be frustrating!

Answer

I had a boppy and barely used it.  Easier to just prop baby up with arms of chairs/other pillows if needed.  The boppy was just too cumbersome for me.  I still have it but I would say wait to see how nursing goes and think about what would make it easier.  You can't know what you need unt you start!! No need to prebuy for potentially unneeded solutions.

Answer

I liked “my breastfriend”. Used that for my first and will use again for my second

Answer

I was gifted a Boppy and I've nursed 2 babies so far using it and I've really liked it.

Answer

I like my Boppy.

Answer

I’ve bought a pregnancy pillow that’s also used as a nursing pillow, check your pregnancy pillows as I’ve noticed many of them are safe for nursing

Answer

I just used the original Boppy one and it worked just fine for me. Just get multiple covers so you can swap and wash them.

Answer

I love my c shaped pillow, my mom kept wanting to buy baby stuff n I said mom what I really could use is a pillow, so that's what I got.

Answer

I didn’t like my boppy! Felt like I had to hold it in place or reposition it all the time. I got a Frida mom nursing pillow to try this time 🤷🏻‍♀️
