Boppy Nursing Pillow – Firm, Ergonomic U-Shaped Bottle and Breastfeeding Pillow with High Lift for Comfort and Support, Spacious Surface – Tan Happy Houseplants

Great Design but Pricey
I didn’t use the Boppy Nursing Pillow for nursing, but we’ve been using it regularly for tummy time and it works really well. It gives my baby good support and makes tummy time more comfortable and engaging. It’s helped encourage lifting their head and staying in position longer.The size is big and sturdy, which makes it feel secure and supportive. The design is really cute, and it also comes with a cover, which is great for traveling and easy to remove and wash when needed.That said, it does feel a bit expensive for what it is. While it’s useful and well made, the price is higher than expected for a pillow primarily used for support. Overall, it’s a nice product and definitely helpful just wish it were more affordable.

Too big! Original was way better!!
I nursed all my children for 2 years each, and wanted another boppy for a different room after having a baby recently.This thing is horrible!! It’s way too firm to hold with one hand, which is ridiculous because you’re also likely juggling a baby! Doesn’t function well.Also, it’s very high too. My baby is 5 months old & she barely fits between the pillow and my breast. I’m a 5’4 average sized girl, with an average sized baby.There’s no way a bigger baby would fit on this. It’s also so topsy turby to hold, and so firm you can’t even grab on well. I actually hate this thing 🙁

Okay, but not great for breastfeeding.
I have tried several breastfeeding pillows, including the original Boppy (on the left in the picture). I heard so many good things about it that I was excited to try it for breastfeeding my first baby. I found that it was too round for baby to comfortably and securely lay on it while latched, he kept rolling towards me which put him in an awkward position relative to my breast. And the small opening made for a snug fit around my midsection, but it worked. So when they came out with the new shape, I was stoked to try it! From the description, it was supposed to have a larger, firmer surface area for better positioning and a wider, boxier opening to fit around the midsection more comfortably. I was surprised when I first opened it as it was smaller than I expected (new version on right in picture), in fact, overall it’s smaller than the original version. It is much firmer than the original, which I can’t decide if that’s a positive or negative or just different. My biggest disappointment in the new design, however, is that while the shape does appear more boxy, the pillow itself is still super round which leads to the same issue with baby rolling into me and putting him at an awkward angle when latching. And because they made the sides narrower, my arms/elbows don’t have a comfortable place to rest while baby is latched. I find that my elbows just kind of dangle off the edges so I have to cross my arms over/in front of baby if I don’t want to hold my elbows up. In searching for the best nursing pillows, I’ve also tried the My Brest Friend nursing pillow, which you can also find on Amazon. It’s a tad more expensive, but it has a wide flat base that prevents baby from rolling into your body when feeding that I’ve found to work better than the Boppy. I know a lot of people really like the Boppy so I recommend still trying it out if you think it will work for you. If you don’t like it or find that it’s only “okay” but not great, I recommend giving the My Brest Friend a try and seeing if its design works better for you.With that said, I have found other uses for the Boppy that has convinced me to still keep and use it. It’s great if you are just holding the baby, it provides a place for your arms to rest while the baby is in your arms. So you kind of stack the Boppy on your lap, your arms on the Boppy, and then the baby in your arms. Or you can let the baby lay on the Boppy up against your body and just support with arms as needed. I also really like using the Boppy for tummy time. You can prop baby up with arms/elbows resting on the Boppy rather than putting baby flat on the floor. It’s made tummy time a lot less stressful because baby enjoys it way more than being flat (we will transition to flat on the floor as baby gets older and starts to develop just a bit more head control and neck strength). I have decided though that I prefer the original Boppy for both of these things. The new version’s sides are too narrow for comfortable arm position while holding the baby and it’s too tall and stiff for comfortable tummy time.

Love it!
This boppy is large and perfect! I highly recommend it. The size is wonderful especially for those who have c sections and want to use this to feed it’ll be more roomy for your c section but enough to make it not hurt very great product
