PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Popular Positions for Nursing: Football: Mom puts her arm under baby and supports them using her palm on their back and to support their head. Lay them down on a pillow next to you with their head at the end pointing down toward your feet, then put your arm underneath them and bring them up to your breast with their nose in line with nipple, holding them similar to the way you would a football. Cradle: Baby will be on its back horizontally and resting comfortably. If feeding from left breast, its head will rest in the crook of that same arm. The rest of your arm will be under baby’s back and you’ll need to make sure that baby’s spine, neck and head are fully supported while its nose is in line with nipple from which they are feeding. Relax & Snuggle: Mom can lay on her side propped up with pillows behind her and baby is laid on their side next to her at her breast, using the breastfeeding pillow to keep them in place. Bring your arm over your head to cradle baby’s head and make sure it is properly placed at your breast as they feed. FROM THE MANUFACTURER The My Brest Friend nursing pillow is the perfect support pillow for proper latch-on and breastfeeding in comfort and security. The nursing pillow was developed in a laboratory of new moms, babies, and breastfeeding experts who set out to create a nursing pillow whose sole purpose was to answer all the needs of breastfeeding moms and babies.

Registry must have

I recently had my 2nd child and this breastfeeding pillow was a game changer. I did not have a positive experience breastfeeding my firstborn for a multitude of reasons, but one of them was that we could never get comfortable. With my 2nd born I started having the same troubles so I went to a lactation consultant. They introduced me to this pillow and it made a huge difference for me and the baby. I felt like I could confidently and comfortably breastfeed for the first time. I like the sturdiness of the pillow, I like that I can adjust it to be snug against me, I like how easy it is to switch to different breastfeeding holds, and I also like the back support.

Best Breastfeeding Pillow I’ve Found

I was using the Boppy pillow before this but the ends were way too flat and small to support my arms and be comfortable. I tried putting extra pillows underneath it, using regular pillows on their own, using folded blankets with pillows… nothing really worked well though and it was getting really frustrating. I’ve had the Brest Friend pillow for a few days now and it’s been the BEST. The thickness is just right for me, the material and cover is soft enough but easy to clean, and I like that I can easily turn it to one side or the other if needed. I was a little hesitant about having to strap into something but the back padding is supportive enough while not being too thick or annoying, and I can’t even really tell the actual strap is there. I also like that it comes with a small pocket on the front. 10/10 would recommend!

Worth it

I realllly wanted to make the organic moon pillow work but when we got our babies ties fixed, the lactation consultant had this pillow and it was SO much easier than the moon pillow, I literally bought it as soon as we left the office. It’s like the perfect little shelf for baby to fully lay and relax on, I use it for every feeding unless we’re out and about in which case I really miss it. Makes nursing way easier

Best nursing pillow!

I love this pillow! It is way better than the other styles because it is easy to clean and it actually stays in place and doesn’t slide away from you.

Best Nursing Pillow

Bought this after using one with my lactation consultant. It was the best nursing pillow I was able to find. I prefer this way more than the boppy, mainly due to the buckle/strap that holds it in place!

Don’t hesitate to get this!

I should have added this to my registry. I waited 2.5 weeks to get this pillow, but should have bought it before baby was delivered so that I can pack into my hospital bag. I’m FTM and this would’ve been helpful the two days I was admitted at the hospital. When I used this for the first time, I couldn’t believe how easy baby latched onto my boob! I always struggled to hold baby and help baby latch onto my boob. Baby would cry and wouldn’t eat enough because he was uncomfortable. But with this pillow, baby rolled over and latched to my boob easily for longer than 15 mins on each side. Amazing!

The BEST purchase ever for a breastfeeding mama

This was a great purchase! I was hesitant to buy it considering the price but I'm so glad I did. This pillow is very firm, so it supports the baby really well without you needing to do much to support their head or body. My old pillow got really soft and I ended up with a sore back and wrist from hunching and holding the baby despite the pillow. After a week using this my back felt better because it does all the work for you. I also didn't realize how handy the little pocket would be for keeping things like vitamin D drops and nail clippers close by. I would recommend this and buy it for all future pregnant friends.

Not good for football hold, and cushion is too thin and not thick enough

Pros: -flatter top than traditional pillow cushions, so my baby does not roll as much nor slowly rolls into me while feeding. - sturdy and flat is good for cross/cradle holds - pocket in front is handy for small items to keep closeby like a cell phone. - padding in the back is good back/lumbar support -foam cushion firmer than pillow cushions -more affordable than other styles from this brand (appears to be exact same specifications) - you can walk around with it if needed and it probably won't fall down when clipped on. (without baby of course) Cons: - The thickness/height of the cushion is only 11cm or 4.25 inches! That is incredibly thin and is definitely not thick enough to bring a newborn up to the boob to feed! I am 5'6" and needed additional couch cushions underneath to prop it up higher. This plus positioning and clipping it while holding a crying baby makes for additional work and highly annoying. Seems like this was made for short torsos or an older infant/toddler. - Not good for football hold and clearly the design did not consider this hold. The fit around the waist is oblong, not circular, when clasp is done up, so this is really ineffective and uncomfortable for me when I do football hold to feed. Rotating sideways also renders the backrest useless. - I'm thin build, and it fits with some room to spare if I ever gain weight. But I don't see that there is enough room for any waist of plus size. - There are two circular raised foam areas near both sides of the top of cushion. Not clear what these are for. If these are the arm/elbow rests that is in the description, the raised areas are way too close to centre and not even close to elbows, maybe a forearm rest? If they are for the baby's head comfort, perhaps they're useful, but I didn't find it helped for me as the cushion was short to begin with anyway, and these bumps caused baby to roll a little. - They call the strap "silent release". I found this to be opposite; everytime, it would startle baby, or wake him if he fell asleep... it's a plastic buckle that is pretty loud, unless you do it slowly and hold with your hand to release. Have not washed the cover yet, so cannot comment. Also, with other reviews, this is foam and probably not easy to clean in case messes get in/on the foam. Overall, there are good points on this; mainly so that the baby doesn't roll because it's flat, and the back rest attached. Otherwise, I would not purchase again, unless it was made with thicker padding to accommodate the torso length (perhaps if made like those cushioned lap desks), and if it could accommodate a football hold properly. It's a lot of work to get comfortable/positioned to feed and sometimes I go back to the regular feeding cushion for speediness.

This product is a life saver!

Very happy with this purchase. It does everything it claims in the add. Support, comfort and easy to use! However, I do have some negative feed back on it, I was disappointed that when I received it the quality of the fabric was sub-par, it is a cheap cotton (however it did wash ok). My other negative was that it smelt really bad like glue and chemicals. I can only assume this came from the packaging and the adhesive they use to put the pillow together. Even after washing the cover it still has an odor. Not ideal for a newborn in my books. I will continue to use it because it is a great product, but I try and put my own blanket over it to mask the adhesive smell.

Try it out first, if you can

This was a life saver when baby was first born and I had no idea what I was doing. Baby was super comfortable and it helped with latching and positioning. Baby is now nearly 7 months and we still use it for all of our feeds. The main thing I don’t love is the back support, which I haven’t found to be that comfortable in seats where back support already exists - like our couch or easy chair. It just sort of adds an extra lump. It also means you have to get the pillow around you before you sit down, which can be tricky when you’ve got baby in one arm. Same goes for getting out of it. Also, I am 5’6” and feel like I have to hunch over a bit for baby to reach my breasts. I think my torso is slightly longer than average, so others may not have this issue. Finally, don’t count on the pocket being of any use. It hangs right over my left knee, making it impossible to hold things like the remote control or a water bottle. I could probably stuff some tissues in there, but who would remember. (Note, I have 2 of these pillows and the pockets both hang in the same spot - not a defect). On the upside, the cover is easy to take off, wash (hang dry) and put back on.

Una buena compra con sus pros y contras.

Pro: el que se pueda amarrar permite que camines y da algo de soporte. Es ligero y puedes llevarlo a donde quieras. Funda lavable que seca rápido, muy importante para los pequeños accidentes del bebé. El tamaño y su rigidez permiten que el bebe se recueste cómodamente sin temor a que se caiga fácilmente. Contras: la calidad del material de la funda es muy pobre, se calienta demasiado y te hace sudar al igual que al bebé. Le falta altura para bebés pequeños por lo que debes usar otra cosa adicional para estar cómodo sin encorvarte. El soporte de la espalda sigo sin verle utilidad, lo siento muy grueso cuando uso el cojin en alguna silla con respaldo.
