Boppy v. My Breast Friend

I registered for both, got both, loved one for breastfeeding, but ended up not being able to use either.  Did that make sense?

Boppy

I found it awkward to use the Boppy for breastfeeding.  Lainey would lay kind of awkwardly on the Boppy, so I think we ended up using it once for breastfeeding.  However, from birth to now 3 mo. that has been Adelaine's favorite "chair".  She sits in it every day, several times a day.  She takes cat naps in it (with me watching of course!), watches me pump, and "talks" to me in it.  It's like her little baby recliner!

My Breast Friend

Gosh I loved this breastfeeding pillow.. SO MUCH.  It was supportive on my back, it kept the pressure off of my c-section scar, Adelaine would lay nicely on it, and it has a nice little pocket on the front that I would keep a cloth diaper in.  LOVED IT!

Unfortunately, my little girl has really bad reflux.. really bad.. so she can't eat lying down.  So, I sadly retired My Breast Friend very early, but I would recommend it to all breastfeeding mothers and I hope that I will be able to use it with future kiddies.

Conclusion

Despite my bad fortune I would suggest registering for both.  My Breast Friend is an amazing breastfeeding pillow, but the Boppy is the most versatile (and looks super cute in pics).

Sadly, Adelaine is now fed sitting up with my arm and sometimes a throw pillow supporting her head.  It hurts my arm and I wish we could use either of the special pillows, but oh well!
