Nursing Pillow - Deluxe - Soft Rose

I’ve been using this pillow for two days now, and I can already tell it’s going to be something I use regularly, especially while breastfeeding. It’s nice and firm, fits comfortably around my waist, and I love the strap that keeps it securely in place so it doesn’t slip or fall off. I also use it when my baby falls asleep on it. He seems very comfortable and relaxed, and I like that the pillow has two small elevated areas that naturally support his head on either side. I would definitely recommend this pillow to breastfeeding or even bottle-feeding moms. It takes a lot of the strain and weight off your arms while holding the baby, and it gives them a comfortable, supportive place to rest.

Don't overthink it. Don't go comparing with other ones. This is the one. I had that boppi one and didnt like it then I used just a regular pillow which worked sometimes but when my lactation consult told me to get this one and tried it for the first time I fell in love. It makes feeding baby so much easier. Its great for getting good latches everytime. Baby is comfy and so are you. It provides lumbar support and your back isn't in pain. Its easily adjustable for any size torso. It has a pocket for anything really but i put snacks in it and nail cutters. Its easier to cut nails when they are distracted with the boob. I would say get a waterproof cover for it though for spit ups and such since its just foam and it'll soak up everything and its a bit hard to clean. The cover is easy but the foam not so much.

This pillow has been incredible! It is incredibly easy to use one handed while you have the baby. The back support is very helpful and provides extra comfort to ensure I stay comfortable while feeding our little one. The small pocket that comes on the pillow is perfect for a burp cloth to keep close by. I love this pillow and wish I had bought one sooner!

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 pillows again when I was pregnant to see what other options were out there. I was interested in the Kushies pillow, since it was foam, the baby wouldn’t sink, and I wouldn’t have to switch sides every time. I was weary that it wasn’t machine washable, wasn’t waterproof, and honestly there wasn’t a cover that I loved. If it’s going to be sitting on my couch, and I’m going to be looking at it all the time, I wanted to love it! My husband suggested I get the Brest Friend pillow because of the back support. That was pretty much the deciding factor. I was weary again because the pillow itself wasn’t machine washable, and all the reviewers were saying it was a pain to wrap around you and buckle while your baby was waiting to eat. After using it for almost a month now, I am so glad I bought it! I took the advice of some reviewers and immediately used the plastic packaging as a “waterproof” layer under my soft cover before I even used it. This way I wouldn’t have to worry about a gross foam pillow underneath, since I plan to use this for a while! Placing the plastic packaging underneath does make it a little crinkly, but it’s very minimal compared to knowing your pillow will be protected and clean for your baby. I only really notice the “crinkle” as I’m buckling it around my stomach. My baby sits high (I do the cradle hold), doesn’t move, the material of the cover is really nice and soft, and the raised head supports are a nice touch! Now the only thing that would make this better would be if I had a nursing stool -- but crossing my legs does the trick. Buckling it while your baby is hungry is not that big of a deal--it only takes 5 seconds, and you’re ready to go. I’m thankful for the back support it provides! I haven’t used the pocket yet. I kind of wish it wasn’t there because I don’t use it, but I’m sure it’s helpful for those who use nipple cream, or want to keep something small in there. Looks wise, I don’t really care for it. But again, not that big of a deal when you look at the positives! I had a lot of trouble breastfeeding my first and sought help from a lactation consultant. She was highly against all nursing pillows, claiming none give you the best position your baby needs for the perfect latch. I can totally see where she is coming from. She used waterproof pillows that you use in the hospital after delivery, and would fold them in half, push and shove them until they gave me the best support. I did like using those, and they probably do give you better support and positioning than any “nursing pillow” out there, but I like that every time I buckle the Brest Friend pillow around my waist, I am going to have the same results without any “pushing or shoving”. Quick and easy--very important for me while I’m taking the pillow off and on, off and on, all day long! I hope this is helpful for all you moms out there! Breastfeeding is hard work, and even harder if you don’t have the right tools and support. Let me know if you have any questions…I would love to help!

Much more comfortable than the Boppy pillows. These pillows are great especially for newborn stage when they need so much support. The boppy pillows just slide out from me and then they slip too making everything more difficult. These are great because they don’t move when you buckle, there flat so baby doesn’t roll or move and their sturdy too so it doesn’t sink when you place baby on them, you get some back support to help with posture, and the pocket on the front is nice to for phone or nipple creams, water bottle etc. it’s machine washable too which is a huge plus. Overall very happy with it!

Essential for new moms in the newborn stage. Not as useful after 4/5 months but it’s easier on the back than a boppy and when you’re nursing around the clock it’s nice to have something supportive.

I used to be very uncomfortable using regular pillows for nursing. Now I can sit down more comfortably and peacefully, without struggling to reposition my hungry baby. I still use small pillows underneath it to raise it higher. I haven’t been able to enjoy it in bed, but I have a chair where I sit to use it. I read in other comments that it can press on a C-section scar, and it does 😅 but you can find a way to work around that. My baby is very comfortable during feedings and doesn’t slide down. Back pain from nursing isn’t completely gone, but it’s better. You’ll also need help standing up while holding the baby. It also takes time to put on and position (just 7 seconds but feels like an eternity when your baby is hungry and crying) . I gave it 5 stars because it made my life easier, my baby loves it

I’m here to say I tried the boppy and standard pillows but this by far the best all around! I have a larger chest and the football hold works best for me & my little one for feeding but I struggled finding good positions and was killing my back. This nursing pillow SAVES my BACK! And I feel like it’s a little serving platter to hold baby for feeding. She’s very nicely propped up and comfortable. I wish I got this sooner.

I swore by this pillow for my first two pregnancies but to my dismay, when I got this for my third, it was my mistake to NOT read what the ‘soft plush’ fabric was. It’s 100% polyester. Omg. I’d really think that after so many years one would improve and for babies with delicate skin, this should NEVER be used. It’s hot, scratchy and I can already foresee rashes. I’m Super upset but I’m due soon and it was my mistake to just chuck it all aside until 2 weeks before my delivery to wash everything and saw this horrid thing. So be warned.

Firm pillow, great especially for newborn stage as it helps raise baby up (rather than sink him like other softer pillows). Only complaint is that for the price, would be better if a cover was included (I bought that seperately, really helps to keep the sponge part clean and prevent discolouring).

For the first few weeks this was my absolute best buy as a second time mom. Don't use it so much now because I have a tall, chubby baby who was ridiculously tiny at birth but now doubled and probably at this point tripled in size in no time. But it's still great when I use it. Amazing back support, so comfy I walk around with it and even when not feeding baby it's just very cosy. Well worth the money and actually wish I could use again but not planning on having another. Do not hesitate, buy it! Edit..I've gone back to using this full time as i realise baby falls asleep much more easily after feeds when using this versus being held...also he's quite heavy so this is amazing support and also frees up my hands .

out baby was big, so after 3 month old she didn't fit very comfy in the pillow, but it was really useful for me the first 3 months that you are learning to breastfeed, etc.. it was nice to have a good cushion to feel relaxed and my back was supported nicely...the good thing is that this pillow doesn't move anywhere because its design (I tried 2 other ones and they were not comfy for me). I highly recommend it.
