Pros: Provides necessary support for better breastfeeding posture; cute designs.
Cons: Much more expensive than using regular pillows; one size does not fit all.

When my daughter was born, I had planned on breastfeeding her for the first year. Although I was unsuccessful with my attempt, I did manage to breastfeed her for a little while, and found that trying to hold her, get her to latch on and get us both...

Pros: Fashionable, Comfortable, Reliable
Cons: NONE!

I don’t usually write reviews about products that already have several epinions about them, but the Boppy is such a wonderful product, I feel that I have to write away. When my son was a baby and sometimes now, there are a select few number of ...

Pros: Great help to breastfeeding moms, especially if recovering from a c-section
Cons: None really

I'm getting a little nostalgic for my daughter's babyhood. She's now four and a half, my biological clock is ticking, and it's beginning to look as though she's going to be an only child. I'm still working on coming to terms with that, but in the ...

Pros: Available in a myriad of colors and patterns.
Cons: Didn't hold up well to machine washing.

I bought my Boppy Pillow at a garage sale for one dollar!! It was one of the best dollars I ever spent. What a lifesaver! It really took a beating but never lost its shape. The fabric never faded, even after being spit-up upon and damp-cloth-wiped...

Pros: Great for infant feeding and to assist learning to sit up
Cons: none

When I first found out what a "Boppy" was I thought it was to teach babies to learn how to sit up on their own. That how I always used it. I had no idea it was for nursing. I thought I was so cool, brilliant as a matter of fact when I decided to place it ...

Pros: *Supports mom's arm(s), positioning nursing baby
*Frees hands while baby sleeps on your lap
Cons: *If there is one, I haven't found it in over 3 years

I'm mom to three kids, ages 11, 9, and 3. All were breastfed, but with my first two, I was either ignorant of all the must-have equipment, or some of it just plain didn't exist. I suspect the second is true of the Boppy What is a ...

Pros: So many..read on!
Cons: NONE!

Do we all receive this Boppy Pillow as a gift at our baby shower? I certainly did, and what a wonderful gift idea for any expecting parent!

I won't go to drastic measures in describing this pillow, because you can look to your top...

Pros: Reduces back and arm strain, makes feeding easier.
Cons: Cheesy designs and can't hide it very well.

What exactly is a "Boppy Pillow?" If you're watching the Drew Carey show, it could be used for just about anything. It's a boomerang...or perhaps a convenient weapon to use in bopping one upside the head when they're being an idiot. I suppose those are...

Pros: Good concept
Cons: Not large enough around

I had every intention on nursing my second child. So much so, that I never even dug out the Playtex nursers I saved from my son’s infancy. I bought all the nursing accessories I could find, to help support my decision. I was giving The Art of...

Pros: This might help encourage a new mother to stick with breastfeeding.
Cons: Or, it might not. Not for all body types, and it's usefulness passes quickly.

The Boppy is a firm, closed-C shaped pillow, which may or may not come with a removable slipcover. The inventors originally intended it to be used as a little nest to prop baby up when she is still a few hundred sit-ups away from possessing any core ...

Pros: Comfortable, hands free, easily cleaned, nurse infant twins at same time.
Cons: Not big enough to accommodate larger babies (or twins after a few months).

By way of background, my wife and I had twin girls on December 31, 1999. As you may be able to figure out, for any mother of multiples, feeding twins after a C-section can be quite difficult. My wife says that no matter how you look at it . . . breast...

Pros: comfortable easy to use, helps baby sit up, works great for other things too
Cons: none

I had heard so many great things about the Boppy Pillow I decided to finally go and get one when my daughter was about three months old.

At first it was awkward for me to use. Going without it for the first three months I got used to...

Pros: Very versatile - neck saver for Mom, neck strengthener for baby.
Cons: Fabric the Boppy comes with is not removable, so it can't go in the wash.

Before the birth of my first baby I dutifully trooped to Babies R' Us to make my registry list. I fully intended to breastfeed my baby and was told by experienced friends that the Boppy pillow was a a necessity for a breastfeeding Mom. So I registered...
