I love the Brest Friend. It was a lifesaver when it came to breastfeeding. I had one at home and one on set when I was working, and I never traveled without it. It's the best; nothing else even comes close.

A great friend when you are a very busy mommy.

This is a great product. I had the Boppy first but it was uncomfortable because I would have to arch my back to get my baby comfortable, the Boppy was to flimsy. The Brest friend was referred to me and it helped me position my baby better and helped my lower back. My baby loves it he easily falls asleep on it too. I would recommend this to anyone

I originally got a Boppy because it seems everyone had them, but then at a breastfeeding class they said this was much better. Man were they right! The Boppy is too soft and the kid just sinks in, not enough support. This is firm foam that holds him up at the right height. It has a little bump to rest his head on also so your hand does not get tired and the removable cover is nice too. This product truly saved my breastfeeding, it was hard for so many other reasons and this made it so much easier. I cannot recommend this enough!

I bought this when I was pregnant with my first daughter, and after a c-section, it was great! The back support helps hold the pillow up high off of your incision. I used this every time I nursed my daughter, and we use it now with our second baby. It is great for keeping the baby in the right position, especially in those first few weeks when you feel like you do not know what you are doing. It is definitely worth it! I am buying one now for a baby shower gift for a friend.

The Brest Friend pillow was one of many items that I would classify as a must have for new mothers. We were given some of the others, but they did not feel as comfortable and believe me, when my wife was comfortable, my life was comfortable. Not a complicated product, but well designed and really useful, even for me. I am not afraid to say that it made its way around my waist a couple of times, and feeding was really calm and peaceful. Anyway, I would put it on my top five list for getting a new mother.

My Brest Friend helped to position my premature son correctly while my wife was breastfeeding AND I while I was bottle feeding (Yes, I swallowed my manly pride and used the pillow too ... it made those early feedings go much smoother).
James, dad of Kaleb
This pillow is fantastic. Not only does it provide support for the weight of a baby while breastfeeding, it also puts baby in the perfect position for an easy, painless latch! And, since we only use the pillow for breastfeeding, as soon as the baby feels the pillow beneath her, she knows exactly what to do and stops fussing immediately. Also, the nice wide strap across the back makes it sit securely, and keeps me from slouching - which makes my back hurt less from feeding!

No comparison! I started with a Boppy, which is just a U shaped pillow, if that's all you want use two bed pillows and save yourself the money. The My Brest Friend is actually a nursing pillow, and it will set you up for nursing success. It has built in back support, because you spend so many hours in that position, this is crucial. It is also firm enough and buckles on to put the baby at just the right position to alleviate sore nipples. Well worth it, and the plush covered deluxe is a nice splurge.
