The breastfeeding diet is a big concern for mothers, and most of all for those who feed their babies on breast milk only, with no formula supplements. This concern is natural, because some substances in the foods moms eat pass into breast milk, then into the infant’s digestive system. First of all, you need to know that breastfeeding is not the same as pregnancy, so you won’t have to avoid so many foods. While you can eat and drink almost…
This nursing pillow is designed for night time breastfeeding. It helps providing a proper spine-pelvis alignment for the baby, thus helping avoiding complications that might occur as a result of improper positioning. Nurse N Glow was invented by a Doctor of Chiropractic, Laura Bartner. It won the JPMA International Innovation Award and iParenting Media Award in 2005. This pillow features a built-in soft glow light, just enough for the mother to see what she’s doing, without having to wake up…
Twins! What a blessing! This is the first thought that comes to mind when you hear you’ve got twins. All thoughts that follow are related to making sure to buy everything in double size or quantity: double clothing items, double diapers, double-sized stroller, double cribs. It's true, your wallet will surely feel the difference from one to two babies, but it’s maybe a good thing to have the children growing together and save you from going through another birth again.…
Leachco Cuddle-U is really more than a nursing pillow. It has a seat wrap which prevents sliding out and offers an additional support. It can be adjusted to the baby’s size, so you can use it on newborn babies as well as on bigger infants. Being much softer than My Brest Friend, this pillow is a winner for more difficult babies who don’t like to lay down on the stiffness offered by the firm foam that’s inside of My Brest…
Boppy is a doughnut-shaped pillow that was initially designed only as infant support, but it quickly became one of the most popular nursing pillows. Inexpensive, simple and functional, the Boppy conquered the heart of many breastfeeding mothers, because it offered them the freedom to use only one hand when nursing and do other things with the other hand such as answering their emails or using the cell phone.
Although cheap and easy to put on, there were mothers who…
Boppy is a doughnut-shaped pillow that was initially designed only as infant support, but it quickly became one of the most popular nursing pillows. Inexpensive, simple and functional, the Boppy conquered the heart of many breastfeeding mothers, because it offered them the freedom to use only one hand when nursing and do other things with the other hand such as answering their emails or using the cell phone.
Although cheap and easy to put on, there were mothers who felt like it was not enough for a good backrest and they had to use additional pillows. On the contrary, others saw it as a real life saver when they used it for more comfortable sitting in hard chairs or for supporting themselves at night, during heartburn attacks. Personal experience is definitely the most important of all, no matter what other people may say to you: if it works well for you, you’ll love it. If it doesn’t make your life better, just get yourself another one, a My Brest Friend or anything else that may offer you more appealing features and benefits.
However, Boppy is fun, useful and it costs only $18, if you don’t want to buy also a slipcover. There are so many colors and fabric patterns that you could even have a hard time in choosing the one you like most. What would you choose if you had to get only one? OK, you can always take the Boppy Bare Naked Expandable Miracle middle pillow, but then you’ll have to buy a cover. Shall it be the Soft Boa slipcover, the two-sided cotton-blend Ocean Friends one, the Fun Spots, the Contemporary Squares or the Flowers and Chocolate slipcover?
Boppy is very easy to put on, but it’s not adjustable to the waist, so it may not fit everybody. If you’re big, you could probably consider getting an adjustable pillow, or you can get the Miracle Middle Boppy, which comes with a stretch panel that makes it fit all waist sizes.
