My Brest Friend Deluxe Nursing Pillow: Comfort and Support for Nursing Mothers, Aqua

JW: I use both this pillow and the momcozy one. The one is more than double the price of the other one but I still got it because I was desperate to make breastfeeding more comfortable as a first time mom. This pillow is nice and firm and I love how closely it fits to the body and doesn't slide off. Great lumbar support and I like the side buckle as it doesn't press on my back. However, I like to feed in bed or on a couch where I'm a little reclined, and this pillow works the best only when you're sitting upright (it still works when reclined, the whole pillow just tilts up, which I don't think is what it's designed for lol). If there's a pillow where you could feed while standing, I feel like this would be the one, but I dare not to try lol. I also like to do different holds to spread the wear and tear if you know what I mean... but this one only works for cradle/cross-cradle where the baby is right across in front of you. It doesn't work for footbal hold because it's so firm and it would be uncomfortable for the baby if half of their body is hanging off the pillow. It's great for when I feed the baby when I'm eating too haha. One last thing, it claims that the flat...

AshleyAshley: This make nursing so much easier, I can focus on feeding baby instead of holding at the right position or adjusting pillows all the time. I love the adjustable strap, easily accommodated my plus size midsection. The cover is so soft, I have no concerns having baby’s bare skin on it. The color is beautiful, and the pocket is very handy for small nursing accessories. Great ergonomics for both mom and baby. I switched from using a Boppy to this and will never look back. Highly recommend.

Barbara Vargas: Está muy cómodo para amamantar, me encanta el respaldo de atras, el único pero que le pondría es que la cubierta es muy caliente y yo vivo en un lugar de clima húmedo caliente, de ahí en fuera no le pongo un pero

madison: Let's be honest! Breastfeeding is not as easy as it looks! As a first time mom I was struggling to get my baby positioned to get a good latch until a friend told me to order this pillow. This pillow provided the support that I needed to comfortably breastfeed my child. The shape of the pillow provides support for your babies head and is firm to help support babies weight. The pillow also wraps around your body and provides decent back support for those long overnight feeds. The cover is easy to remove and clean. Overall, I recommend this to all my friends who are breastfeeding!

Kusiko: I bought it for $30 and still think it's overpriced. It's a really great pillow but it's just made of foam and soft cloth, with the ability to adjust the fit. That said, I have no regrets buying it. I can wash the cover. I use it all the time. It helps make my breastfeeding easy. I do feel that I need to support my baby's head lifting it up a notch, but it's easily solvable with a folded burp cloth. The only major drawback is that there is a plastic lock that keeps sliding up which my baby slammed her foot against a couple times, and I also need to be careful when she's lying with her head on that side. I typically cover it with a burp cloth that I keep around, anyway.

Denisse: La compré con lágrimas en los ojos por el dolor de espalda de estar amamantando las primeras semanas. Cuando llegó esta almohada fue una maravilla! Inmediatamente sentí el soporte en mi espalda y el alivio. Es suave pero firme y mi bebé se acomodaba súper bien en ella, excelente altura. Amamantar fue 10 veces más sencillo con ella. No es barata pero créeme, vale la pena. La regalé hace poco a una amiga porque mi bebé ya está enorme jaja.

Brady Amundson: Super cute print!! I was so excited to find this on Amazon after getting targeted for ads all over the place haha I've used a Boppy for my first two babies but really wanted to try this for my third but none of the other designs were trendy or cute, then this one came along! Honestly love the pattern. It's also very supportive and keeps the baby sitting pretty high so you don't have to do any bending over to nurse. I tried it out for the first week or so after having my baby and loved it.... Then I just stopped using it and ultimately returned it. It's just pretty bulky and felt impractical to use all the time! Especially when I'm dealing with my other two kids. I usually just grab a pillow and get as comfortable as I can instead of reaching for this thing... Especially when I'm holding a baby in one arm. This pillow is more like a two arm job to get it positioned! So yes, works well, but doesn't feel practical long term. Or mostly I see it as useful when you're learning the ropes of nursing and need all the support to get into position. And lastly, it definitely screams NURSING PILLOW. I do wish the design was more discreet but I guess you can't have it all!

Winona Wensel: Used a pillow like this in the hospital after my son was born. Didn’t think I’d need an actual breastfeeding pillow until I got home and used regular pillows a couple times. It’s not the most comfortable thing but it supports baby a lot. Highly recommend. It’s expensive but it’s worth every penny.

Blew60Blew60: I am currently breastfeeding my second child. I breastfed my first for a little over a year. I have researched a lot of nursing pillows since that was what I was going to be spending a lot of my time doing. For my first child I decided to go with the Gia Nursing Pillow because I read that the boppy pillows didn’t provide enough support and that babies sink in the pillow easily, causing you to hunch over, etc. I liked that it was designed by lactation consultants and there was a raised side, and of course because of the low price! Once I used it for a while, I didn’t like having to switch it every single time I switched sides, and I found that my baby sunk in the pillow just as much as she would on a boppy pillow. I also didn’t use a cover for it since it was machine washable, and my wedding ring was constantly snagging the stitching all over the pillow. So now, it is being used to prop my baby up, although it’s trickier than a boppy pillow since both sides aren’t the same.

With my second child I wanted to invest more into breastfeeding supplies, since that is something very important to me, so why not make it easier on the mom? :) I researched...
