My Brest Friend Super Deluxe Nursing Pillow - Platinum

Breastfeeding had not come totally easy for us, my son's latch was OK but I had to have an emergency c-section and was limited on the types of holds I could manage. When we got home, I couldn't adjust very well to making the holds work without pillow assistance - it felt important to me to keep trying as my son genuinely seemed to prefer breastmilk to the formula and I wanted him to have the best of both options. We managed to get back to the breast a few weeks later but I was needing to hunch over to do football hold + other pillows like the boppi were doing nothing to help. I read reviews suggesting this pillow was a game changer and really wanted something that would make breastfeeding more comfortable. And wow what a difference! No more awkwardly hunching over, Baby could rest comfortably on the pillow while feeding and I could hold him for longer periods after feeds far more comfortably. Feeds became sessions I enjoyed and the soft minky material was super comfy for baby too. There was many a time where he would finish a feed and contentedly enjoy a milk-drunk snooze on the pillow. Perfectly balanced so I could hold him but check my phone or watch something in comfort. Now we both enjoyed breastfeeding time and I looked forward to the nights when I could feed and watch something low stimulating in the wee hours. The material has been easy to wash and still super soft after, the memory foam holds well. About the only minor issue with this one over the other versions is the strap being velcro instead of a clip. The velcro is starting to fray after 3 months use now but still holds mostly OK. Though at this point baby is starting to outgrow the pillow a bit at 4 months (in fairness - he's grown quick!) The part of the pillow that holds the baby has like little "mounds" on the left and right side that help keep baby stable once in position. This helps way more than you think it might! This puchase was absolutely worth it and helped make breastfeeding both enjoyable as well as satisfying. Thank you My Breast Friend!

As a new mom of 2 under 2 with major back issues — including a collapsed disc — I knew nursing was going to be physically challenging. I’ve tried other nursing pillows in the past, but nothing came close to the support and relief I’ve gotten from the My Brest Friend Super Deluxe . This pillow has honestly been a lifesaver during such a vulnerable time in my postpartum journey. Why this is different: • Firm, structured support: Unlike other floppy pillows, this one stays exactly where I need it. It holds baby at the perfect height and position so I’m not hunching, twisting, or overcompensating with my shoulders and neck. • Backrest is a game-changer: The built-in lumbar support is no joke — it’s the only pillow I’ve used that actually helps me sit upright and take pressure off my lower back. That alone makes it worth every penny. • Strap + buckle = stability: The wrap-around design with an adjustable buckle means it doesn’t slip or slide during nursing, even with a squirmy baby. I can actually relax my muscles during feedings now. • Thoughtful extras: I also love the little pocket — sounds silly, but being able to stash burp cloths, nipple cream, or even my phone there has saved me from getting up and down repeatedly (which, with back issues, is a huge deal). Bottom line: If you have chronic back pain or spinal issues and you’re breastfeeding, this is not just a nice-to-have — it’s a must-have. It has allowed me to nurse comfortably, bond with my baby, and protect my body during recovery. I genuinely don’t know how I would have made it through the early weeks without it. This pillow isn’t just support for your baby — it’s support for you, too. I highly, highly recommend it.

The Brest Friend Pillow was recommended to me by my lactation consultant, and I’m so glad I listened. The support it provides is incredible. It has made breastfeeding so much easier and more comfortable for both me and my son. The firm foam keeps him perfectly positioned without sinking, which has helped reduce strain on my arms, shoulders, and back during longer nursing sessions. The cover is also a big plus. It’s very soft and comfortable against the skin, which matters a lot when you’re using it multiple times a day. Overall, the pillow feels thoughtfully designed and extremely supportive without being stiff or uncomfortable. My only downside is that it can make me feel a little warm while nursing, especially during longer sessions. That said, the comfort and support far outweigh that small issue, and I still reach for it every single time. I would absolutely recommend the Brest Friend Pillow to any breastfeeding parent looking for solid support and an easier nursing experience.

I wish I had this from day 1 in the hospital!!! Before I go into my experience, let me just tell you why. It might look really rigid and gimmicky, but once you use this pillow you realize how much thought was put into this design. The cushion is firm so that you can position your baby easily without him accidentally shifting or slipping into gaps, or even falling off. The lumbar support really does help with comfort. And the belt makes it super convenient so YOU can also move around without ruining baby’s latch and positioning. Also inside the cover there’s a plastic cover so you don’t have to worry about cleaning the cushion. I’m a first time mom who was blindsided by how difficult breastfeeding is. You think you know before giving birth, but you really don’t!! I put off getting this because I’m frugal, only getting the essentials. So I thought I could make do with just reusing my pregnancy pillow and bed pillows while nursing. It was a struggle because the pillows would slowly shift around and baby’s little body would start slipping into gaps. And fixing it alone was even harder, with a baby in your arms and all. Finally I decided to go with this one because my lactation consultant was using the original My Brest Friend in her office. I realized it was very comfy and super helpful in positioning. Breastfeeding is hard enough, just get this. It’s such a game-changer. If not this one then get the original, it’s just as good, I only got the deluxe because it’s slightly bigger. I don’t know everyone’s situation, but personally this is my most important breastfeeding item. I thought it would almost set me back but it’s been worth every penny. Btw I’m 5’ 5” and around 280 lbs. Idk my waist measurements but I am bottom heavy and I use this with the belt almost as tight as possible. Yeah I like it pretty snug. Works just fine.

My NICU baby was a month premature and only 5lbs 2oz. Being such a little bub, this pillow was a great tool to elevate him and help us on our breastfeeding journey. It's firm, but not too hard and was easy to wash the cover as needed. I appreciated the back support and the pocket to place a rag or my phone. I ended up tipping the ends on the armrests of my chair to help keep him elevated (he had excessive spit up issues that may have been related to dairy in my diet or prematurity). Although he outgrew it after awhile it was worth the investment and helped me to exclusively breastfeed.

It’s amazing. It help me with my baby. The support is amazing and to have the little pillow in the back is amazing now I don’t have anymore back pain. The pillow is enough hard for my baby feel comfortable and I can adjust to my body which is great.

The pillow itself is great. Nice support, very comfortable for both mom and baby. I really like the clip and Velcro strap to keep it on securely. Initially, I thought the cover was very cute. But when I washed it (cold wash, delicate cycle) and then line dried it per the instructions, it shrank so much I couldn’t get it back on the pillow. Very disappointed, because now I need to pay extra to order a new cover. I had bought the organic oatmeal one, so I will try a different color and hope it’s better.

Do you have a hunched back while nursing or require extra pillows for nursing because your boppy isn’t doing the job? This is all you need. I bought this at 3am after 2 weeks of hunching and having back pain with a newborn and fresh C-section. I wish I had this for my first 2 kids. Glad I have it now with my third. It tightens to wear you need it and it stays in place. I can sit up straight and still feed baby. No more pain and I can relax and enjoy nursing. My son is now 3 months old and I still use it every single day.

La compré con lágrimas en los ojos por el dolor de espalda de estar amamantando las primeras semanas. Cuando llegó esta almohada fue una maravilla! Inmediatamente sentí el soporte en mi espalda y el alivio. Es suave pero firme y mi bebé se acomodaba súper bien en ella, excelente altura. Amamantar fue 10 veces más sencillo con ella. No es barata pero créeme, vale la pena. La regalé hace poco a una amiga porque mi bebé ya está enorme jaja.

This is a must have for any breastfeeding mothers - especially if you have a c-section and/or have larger breast. You don’t have to mess around with cushion/pillows and it’s so so comfortable for baby as well. Love it! Wish I had it for my first baby but better late than never.

Das Stillkissen ist einfach nur super und hat meine Stillreise gerettet. Vorallem mit großen Brüsten erleichtert es das Anlegen enorm.

Easy to use!

Exactly as it looks in the pictures. The pillow is very sturdy but not too hard, and is waterproof. Comes with a handy storage case and it was ready to use straight away. The lumbar support is fantastic, I can't believe I went 4 months without getting one. Never looking back at that wacky stack of pillows I used to use for feeding!
