What is the difference between your regular and deluxe pillow?
Both models have all the same supportive, patented My Brest Friend features. The deluxe model offers baby-plush soft fabric and a double-featured strap that combines Velcro for easy-on and the silent-release buckle for a quiet removal that won\'t wake a sleeping baby.
Will your new slipcovers fit my old My Brest Friend pillow?
Yes!
Where can I buy your slipcovers?
Please enter your zip code in our Store Locator to find a store near you.
Can I buy a pillow here at your web site?
No. You can buy from an online retailer by visiting our Where to Buy page. Or, use our Store Locator to find a shop near you that carries our products.
What fabrics are used to make My Best Friend pillows?
The pillow is made of a recyclable foam, covered by a removable, 100% cotton, machine-washable cover.
What should I do with my pillow when I am done breastfeeding?
Because of the personal nature of this product, we recommend not passing it along to other mothers. You can place your My Brest Friend pillow with your other recyclables.
Some moms use My Brest Friend as a support for their own activities like sewing, etc., and some use it as a play pillow for their baby learning to sit up.
Can I use My Brest Friend to nurse twins?
Yes! Many mothers use My Brest Friend to nurse twins. As long as the babies are small enough to fit onto the pillow, this should work well for all three of you.
What are the two bumps on one side of the pillow surface?
These are called feeding risers and they raise the baby\'s head just a bit, aiding ingestion and digestion. We incorporated this feature into our design based upon the recommendations of lactation consultants.
I just gave birth and My Brest Friend doesn\'t seem to fit - why?
Within the first week of giving birth, a woman\'s uterus continues to be enlarged. As your uterus begins to shrink over the course of the first week postpartum, the pillow should begin to fit more comfortably.
What sizes does the pillow fit?
My Brest Friend fits up to a 44-inch waist, making it a good choice for breastfeeding moms and even many bottle-feeding Dads.
What is the weight limit for my baby with My Brest Friend?
The pillow supports babies up to two years of age and about 20 pounds. More importantly is that you and your baby are comfortable.
