My Brest Friend Deluxe Review+Giveaway!




I was super excited for the opportunity to use and review the pillow called "My Brest Friend". I breastfed the twins, but due to the nature of them being so premature, they were fed by tubes and I pumped. Alexa eventually went to formula and I stopped with all that went on. I used a Boppy pillow back then, and I used her to prop her up basically and thats it!

I dont even remember there being other nursing pillows around back then...7 years ago. Makes me feel old using the term "back then".

However, theres a new product in town this time around for me. I have seen this pillow in Babies R Us, and have heard quite a few people talk about it but didn't know much about it. I still have my boppy from when I had my girls, but I wanted something better than that, so I was super excited when My Brest Friend sent me a pillow in the mail to try out! Check out the pics below...

Now, here is a photos of all the functions, and it explains it a lot better than I can.

Before I show you all of the photos of me actually using it, I have some points to make. It is fairly easy to adjust the strap to fit your own shape, and it does fit very secure. My baby's head was on the pillow as he rested, but as he nursed he did lean forward a bit, but his body and head was much more controlled and felt better and more secure while he nursed than on a Boppy. I have not used the pocket at all, so I can say it may be convenient for some who want to grab the pillow and throw their phone in there and sit down to nurse, but I haven't utilized that feature yet. The only part I didn't like was that it was rather difficult to put this on and get it around me directly after my c section. It was very difficult to move, so sitting forward to get the back piece around me was painful. After about a week, I have used it a lot and its the best support ever for my back, and the baby! On to the photos! Yes...HANDS FREE NURSING!
