Love this product. A definite must if you are using a medela pump and avent bottles.So much easier than pumping into a medela bottle (which are 5 oz and always overflow!) or into a breastmilk storage bag.

This is my number 1 most essential item for breastfeeding mommies. I use mine everyday, and it makes the feeding sessions so much more comfortable for the both of us. I even took it on an overseas 11 hr plane ride & she was able to sleep like a dream on the firm surface, even at 9 months. For me, it has made all the difference in my continued breastfeeding.

Nursing Pillow - Suri Review

Nursing Pillow - Suri

I bought this pillow because it was one of the tallest ones out there and I am a very high-waisted person with a very tiny baby.The problem is that it's tall only on one side (6" or so) and on the other side (the one closest to your body) it is very short (about 3.5").This means the baby just rolls off and then in between the pillow and my body, pushing it out of the way.There is no way to keep baby on the pillow.This is the WORST design of any pillow I have tried, including the Boppy, and trust me, I have tried them all!

I bought this pillow for travel and as a second nursing pillow. It is functional for feeding, and comforting to have something that can be deflated, fold up and carried in your diaper bag. But of course, you still need a seat wide enough to cater for it!! (As you do with any twin nursing pillow).

The cover is pretty and has a little side pocket to put things in if needed. It doesn't beat my regular twin nursing pillow, but it is reassuring to have a travel version, and also a spare pillow!

If you are looking for a 100% organic pillow then this is not for you. Only the cover of these are organic...not the filling! I went with the "Nesting Pillow" by Blessed Nest. It has an organic cover, and is filled with 100% organic buckwheat hulls. Plus it has a versitile design that makes it usable after you are done breastfeeding. Don't be misled by organic covers!

Leachco The Natural Contoured Nursing Pillow Review

Leachco The Natural Contoured Nursing Pillow
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have used Bobbies and others. Now for my third child I have found this one and love it.
This fits well around you without leaving gaps. Your baby will snuggle close to you and you can adjust it when baby gets older so that you can elevate the baby, give a bit more head up or however she prefers to nurse.
The pillow snuggles right in and around you. PERFECT for rocking chairs.But also to just for lap use, like on a couch or such. I have one for upstairs and one for downstairs.
It moves right in as the pictures shows. The baby is NOT laying off the pillow, as shown in the pictures, unless you want her to.
I love that it doesn't show stains. I have a pink one and the color is beautiful. Soft but not pastel. It never loses shape. Bounces right back or stays soft but in shape.
As you can tell I am really happy and satisfied with it. Can recommend it.
Note: it has no changing option. It is one peace and you can't take the cover off.
LOVE the prodcut. Never felt that satisfied or happy with any of the other nursing pillows.
Especially the Bobby pillow. It never fit right nor around me.
Usually things are made for shorter women, but I am 6 feet it works well for me.
My friends who are shorter have come over and used it for their baby and it works well for them also.
Doesn't lose shape or firmness.
It is soft to touch but feels like a very good pillow you would rest your head on.

Enjoy it.

My Brest Friend Professional Pillow, Blue Review

Average Reviews:

I don't understand why more people have not reviewed this version of the pillow.It just seems like it would be more hygienic than the regular pillow.I do believe it has the same dimensions as the regular pillow but it is also encased in a plastic/ vinyl covering that protects the foam from fluids.Babies can be messy creatures and it worried me that I would not be able to give the regular pillow a good washing (it can only be spot cleaned).The cover is machine washable but what if the fluids soak through the slip cover?

I have also purchased the deluxe slip cover to use with this pillow.It has not arrived yet so I can't comment on how it fits but I can't imagine why it would not.

Excited to start breast feeding with this pillow once the baby comes :)

Luna Lullaby Bosom Baby Nursing Pillow Review

Luna Lullaby Bosom Baby Nursing Pillow
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I first got a Boppy, and then as my DS got bigger, his legs would fall off to the side and a 'dent' developed in the middle of the curve.I first came across the Bosom Baby pillow at a breastfeeding store, and had to have it!
Reasons I love it:
1) I heard complaints that the Boppy isn't long/wide enough for larger women, and this is definitely longer/wider than the Boppy.
2)The cover that comes with it is velvety soft.
3)I can throw the pillow into the wash/dry when it gets soiled, and 'hang to dry ' the cover like the instructions note.
4)It is comfortable to use and could be helpful if you're nursing 24M+.
5)Makes a great pillow for your neck/head when watching tv!

Maybe it doesn't have a pocket to keep your phone or burp cloth, but with the right cover, we're keeping it in our living room to use for ourselves (minus the nursing now).If you're the type of mom, like me, who likes buying things w/multiple purposes, the Bosom Baby Pillow is definitely practical in style and function.

My Brest Friend Slipcover Review

My Brest Friend Slipcover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
BE AWARE THAT NOT ALL COLORS ARE THE "DELUXE" SLIPCOVER.Product title states "My Brest Friend Deluxe Slipcover."Blue/white and (maybe) Green Starburst are NOT deluxe, but "original" slipcovers.They will both fit the deluxe PILLOW, but they are NOT "deluxe" SLIPCOVERS.

Here's the difference between the deluxe and the original SLIPCOVERS (not pillows.)

The Deluxe cover that originally came with my DELUXE pillow uses a plusher ("fluffy") material and uses a velcro attachment to adjust the fit of the pillow.Looser fit on my deluxe pillow.

The "original" blue/white cover that I received is a plain cotton material, not plushy at all.It does not have velcro.You can adjust the fit by lengthening/shortening the strap on the buckle (think of how you adjust the straps on a backpack.)It fits snugger on my pillow.

You can see these differences if you examine the product pictures closely.As far as I can tell from the my brest friend website, my brest friend deluxe pillows have two bumps on it, and come with said deluxe covers, and originals are completely flat, with the non-plushy original covers.This explains the difference in fit.The deluxe are probably looser to accommodate the bumps on the deluxe pillow.

Product title leads one to believe all these colors are the same product.They are not.I thought I was getting the deluxe cover.Amazon should make this difference clear.

The only way one can tell is by looking closely at the product picture as one clicks on the different colors available.Also, when it is added to the cart, the product name (in the cart) changes to "My Brest Friend Slipcover" (note the absence of the word "DELUXE.")

I am disappointed because the blue/white is grouped with the deluxe slipcovers and cost $17, and I purchased it thinking it was the deluxe cover but it was not.But if you search for "my brest friend slipcovers" (no deluxe) you find some other designs under a separate product listing, for $14.50, as of this writing.Boo amazon!I would have returned it but didn't want to go through the rigmarole.

I tried every nursing pillow out there.I had settled on the "Brest Friend", but found it so difficult to put it on every time with a screaming hungry baby in one hand.Then I went to see a lactation consultant and she showed me this pillow.It is firm, tall (at least 6") and flat across, but curved on the side to facilitate a closer fit.I do wish it had the little head-rest bumps like the Brest Friend, but I've taken to using a blanket for that and that works just fine.Also, as a bonus the cover is adorable and very, very soft!

Leachco Natural Boost - Adjustable Nursing Pillow - Denim Review

Leachco Natural Boost - Adjustable Nursing Pillow - Denim
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased a Boppy pillow prior to purchasing this pillow from another website.After struggling with the boppy constantly sliding off my lap and feeling like I had to hold onto the pillow and the baby for dear life or they would both slide to the floor (I have a wiggly baby), I went looking for another pillow.I found this one and I have been fairly happy with it.It still slides around on my lap some, but there is more room so it is more secure and my baby seems to like it better.His head is more elevated and there is more room for him on the pillow to sprawl out.He often falls asleep on my lap on the pillow.I do have some complaints though.The fabric is very thin, allowing polyester fibers to creep through and the pillow sheds them all over his feet, hands and clothes.The fabric stains easily because it is so dark (much darker than it appears on the website--medium to dark denim colored) and surface washing doesn't get rid of the stains.The product description says "machine washable" but the product information that comes with the pillow recommends against it and says that the pillow won't hold it's shape if you machine wash it.The pillow hasn't held it's shape anyway because the pillows don't have very firm stuffing.The Boppy pillow I had was stuffed firmly.This one is very squishy, more like a cheap bed pillow.The top pillow is held on with a velcro strap so that you can flip it back and forth when you switch sides (a handy feature), but the strap is causing the bottom pillow to smash down in the center so the pillow has a tendency to "fold up" like a book, when the baby is on it.Also, because he is a wiggler, the top pillow tends to twist around the bottom pillow.I still much prefer it over the Boppy, but I wish there was a happy medium.I gave it four stars because I like it that much better than the Boppy, in spite of it's flaws.

Just a boost up from Leachco's Classic Natural nursing pillow, the Natural Boost adds that extra lift newborns need while keeping baby's head cool and dry. The smaller booster pillow is velcro adjustable to create the perfect feeding angle for baby, and it flips from side to side as baby changes position. Just like the Classic Natural, the pillow's contoured design conforms to your body's shape.

Average Reviews:

The removable cover (zipper) makes this easy to clean (just make sure the velcro is stuck to itself when you wash it or it will stick to all your nice socks.

My wife tried a boppy for the first month then got this, which she used continually for the next six.

You can even use it standing up or when you move around since the strap goes around your back.The strap also provides back & lumbar support.The pocket is a nice touch (you put your Lansinoh, cell phone, baby nail clippers, etc in it)The only possible downside is it isn't that easy to put on with one hand (for example, if you are already cradling the baby)

If you're price sensitive look around, there are often significant discounts for older colors.

My Brest Friend Travel Nursing Pillow, Sunburst, 0-12 Months Review

My Brest Friend Travel Nursing Pillow, Sunburst, 0-12 Months
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is an inflatable nursing pillow which is excellent for travelling. We were able to use it on the plane without having to stack up pillows and blankets under our baby.
Now that we are visiting the grandparents for two months, I use this pillow around the house too - but only occasionally. The baby sweats on it which is not a problem with an ordinary nursing pillow that we left at home. The cover is pretty thin.
The zipper broke when we were pulling the cover on the pillow. So the tip here is not to inflate the pillow fully when putting on the cover and inflate the pillow to the desired size (preferrably not too tightly) with the cover on. The same goes with deflating and packing the pillow for future uses.
The pillow also helps to hold our 5-month old baby on my lap. It elevates her and provides flat surface for sitting or standing her with my help.

My Brest Friend Deluxe Pillow, Light Green Review

My Brest Friend Deluxe Pillow, Light Green
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used this for my baby's first month or so, while we were still getting the hang of breastfeeding.It was very comfortable and gave great support.I then stopped using it because I found it too awkward and time-consuming to put on and take off, especially while trying to hold the baby in one hand while he is wriggling and screaming for a meal.At those times, I wished I had a Boppy that I could just shove around my waist in a hurry.

My 7-year old daughter uses it to help her support the baby when she wants to hold him.It works GREAT for that, she can hold him without having to support all his weight with her arms.

PROS: It is very comfortable to wear and supported both me and the baby very well.This is a quality product, very sturdy and well-made.The cover zips off for washing.

CONS:It can be difficult to get the pillow around you and fastened when you are holding a baby in one hand.When your baby starts learning to sit up and you want something to support him on the floor, the Boppy works, but My Brest Friend doesn't.
