5.0 out of 5 stars Truly my breast friend!
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2024
As a breastfeeding mom, finding the right support for both myself and my baby is paramount. The My Breast Friend Nursing Pillow Deluxe has been a game-changer in providing enhanced comfort and support during our nursing sessions.

Let's start with the positives. This pillow offers exceptional support for both mom and baby, making breastfeeding sessions more comfortable and enjoyable. The firm yet plush design helps maintain proper positioning, ensuring a good latch and reducing strain on my back and arms. Plus, the added slipcover enhances comfort and adds a touch of style to our nursing routine.

One of the standout features of the My Breast Friend Nursing Pillow is its ability to provide relief for gassy babies. The elevated positioning helps alleviate discomfort associated with gas, allowing my baby to nurse more comfortably and peacefully. It's a lifesaver during those fussy moments when my little one needs extra support to ease their tummy troubles.

However, it's important to note that this pillow has its limitations. While it excels in providing support for the typical cradle hold in the front, it doesn't allow for multiple breastfeeding positions. This lack of versatility may be a drawback for some moms who prefer to switch between positions for added comfort or to accommodate different nursing preferences.

Despite this limitation, the My Braest Friend Nursing Pillow Deluxe remains a valuable tool in my breastfeeding journey. Its superior support and comfort outweigh the minor inconvenience of limited positioning options. It has become an essential part of our nursing routine, and I highly recommend it to any breastfeeding mom in search of a reliable and supportive nursing pillow.

The enhanced posture support is a game-changer, providing optimal comfort for both me and my baby.
The firm design of the pillow offers fantastic support, reducing the strain on my back and shoulders during feeding sessions. The wrap-around design ensures a secure fit, promoting a comfortable latch and minimizing the need for constant readjustments.
I appreciate the versatility, as it’s not only great for breastfeeding but also perfect for bottle feeding, providing a stable and cozy platform for my baby.
In terms of durability, it has maintained its shape and support through regular use, proving to be a reliable companion in my parenting journey.

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing - Exponentially better than the Boppy
Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2024
I originally purchased the Boppy because it had significant 5 star reviews. However, although the Boppy got the job done, it was not as comfortable. I really did not like that. There was a big gap, where the baby could fall on my stomach with the Boppy.

The breast friend Pillow prevent this by a snug fit. I think it is also much more comfortable in terms of the fabric and the sturdiness of the pillow by far, there is no competition when it comes to both— the breast friend pillow wins by landslide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for breastfeeding
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2024
Overall I think this pillow does a great job of providing a soft stable surface for baby while feeding. It’s nice to give your arms a break especially during longer nursing sessions. The pocket is big enough to hold things like nipple butter or some snacks that you might need. I much prefer this to the boppy pillow that my baby was very unstable on. This one has a buckle to keep it securely placed and I’ve definitely used that before when I need to get up and move to another spot. The one thing I don’t like is that although its washable you have to hang it to dry and I don’t normally have big breaks in between feedings. I put a receiving blanket on top to catch any messes and avoid more frequent washing.
