what parents are saying
Nursing must have! Straps around your waist, the back pillow provides lumbar support, and it makes a cozy little nest for your babe to snuggle while you nurse. Store burp cloth, snack, etc in pocket. (Jun 23, 2019)

I used this quite a bit while nursing. It was so supportive for my back when nursing on a deep cushioned couch. Very easy to use. Feb 27, 2024

Perfect for nursing. Takes all the pressure off your upper back and is very comfortable. Doesn’t hurt c-section wounds! Very easy to wash and very durable material. Sep 29, 2023

I think the boppy is easier to use Aug 24, 2023
- Jennifer H.

I used this daily with my eldest child - it is so supportive and helpful for breastfeeding! It’s not as cushy as the boppy which my 2nd prefers but is still comfortable for both mom and baby. Jun 22, 2023

Breastfeeding must have! This saved my lower back and made positioning my baby so easy. The cover is very soft and easy to wash! May 31, 2023

This was a game changer for me at the beginning of nursing. Especially in the middle of the night if I didn’t want to get out of bed or sitting on the couch. I would recommend this over a boppy. May 09, 2023

Hey a boffy this one sucks and very uncomfortable May 05, 2023

This was really great when baby was a small newborn. It has more support than the Boppy, and the baby doesn't sink into it. The pocket is also convenient for keeping a burp cloth nearby. Apr 25, 2023

Unfortunately this did not work for me. Doesn't work for plus size moms. Was uncomfortable for me to use with baby. Feb 06, 2023
- Alexis B.

Still getting used to it. But Im a mom with a not so itty bitty waist and it takes some adjusting tobget the perfect fit. But I do love its sturdy supportive structure! Jan 13, 2023

Chose this nursing pillow over others per midwife & lactation consultant’s recommendation and I’m so happy I did! I personally don’t use the strap but it’s lightweight and just the right firmness. A++ Nov 17, 2022

Love love love this pillow. I use it while walking around the house with the babe in addition to breast feeding. The back support is great for me. I wish I had this pillow in the hospital. Sep 28, 2022
- Jade S.
Kingston, Canada
I love this nursing pillow. I’ve used it everyday for over a year. I even bring it on trips because I can’t imagine the back pain I’d have if I didn’t. The pocket is great for nipple butter and vit d. Sep 22, 2022
- Ashley B.

Love, love, love! This made nursing feel like a breeze. Head support for baby, back support for mommy, and a nice little pouch for my phone and granola! Sep 16, 2022
- Christine J.

It is more firm, compared to the Boppy, but it is hard to get around you one-handed. It gives great back support, comes in many colors, and is easy to clean. Sep 08, 2022
Makes a good latch easier! I got this when my baby was a month old and wish I’d had it from Day 1! It is better than the Boppy pillow in my opinion. Aug 09, 2022
- Jamie G.

This was not my favorite nursing pillow. It was very involved and not quick to situate. Aug 07, 2022
- Karisa L.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
I have this and the boppy and STRONGLY prefer this. I love the waterproof plastic cover, the pocket, and the secure strap. You can tighten it securely as high as you want, so it’s the perfect height. Jun 25, 2022
- Kiwi N.

Firm and sturdy to lay baby on. Best for cradle/cross cradle hold. Has back support which is nice! Jun 14, 2022
- April H.

Love the soft cover much less rough on babies skin. Wish it was dryer safe though. May 23, 2022

Bought it but returned it. Didn't work out for wifey due to her large breasts May 07, 2022
- Bernice C.

Absolute necessity for parents. This has been a key ingredient to nursing my baby and quickly when a baby is crying for food! The pillow seems very comfortable for baby. Love this product! May 02, 2022
- Wendy L.

I loved the original My Brest Friend so much I bought the deluxe. The fabric is really plush and the pillow is supportive. Apr 01, 2022
- Tonya T.

Love the wide base, allows a lot of space for baby to lay as they grow to nurse! also love the pocket because you can put the bottle there or your phone, whatever you want close by as you nurse Mar 14, 2022
- Robin R.
Middletown, Ohio
I like the plastic covering because milk drips and baby spits up while lying there. It’s kept this pillow in much better shape than my regular deluxe pillow. I don’t find that it makes much noise Mar 08, 2022
- Rachel T.
Fishers, Indiana
Used with both my BF kids. Love that it’s flat on top so you don’t feel like the baby will roll off. Comfortable for mom to use in the glider or on couch. Feb 20, 2022
- Lauren D.
Nashville, Tennessee
This is the best nursing pillow. The other popular brands are nice to look at but functionally this is 100% what you need for excellent head support and comfort for you and baby. Jan 21, 2022
- Kali C.

I have this and the boppy. I definitely prefer this in the early months, especially right after giving birth! It's super soft and I love that there's a pocket to put phone, nipple cream, or snacks Nov 09, 2021

I used this for both of my kids and have since passed it down to my sister. it still has so much life and was such a great product! Loved it! Oct 08, 2021

I used this a lot when my baby was a newborn, but now (at 6 months) we rarely use it. It’s easier to just hold my baby than to strap into this pillow. Jul 11, 2021
- Jenny B.
Lake George, New York
This pillow was one of my favorite gifts of all the things I registered for. It supports the baby and makes breastfeeding so much easier!! Jul 05, 2021
- Abby L.

I have it, friend gave it to me. Although my son is still breastfeeding it came to me when he had already outgrown it. Will definitely be keeping it and using for the next baby. Jul 03, 2021

100% makes nursing and bottle feeding more comfortable. Good support for baby and it saves your wrists. Mar 29, 2023

I had both this and the Boppy. I prefer the Boppy but this was great for travel or as a backup. The pillow was alittle flat for my taste but I liked the back support and buckle. The pocket was nice Aug 15, 2021

ery supportive and easy to use. I used this so much at first that I bought a second one. I’m still using it for night feedings. Definitely buy a replacement cover. Jan 05, 2019
- Stephanie M.

Best nursing pillow! Straps around your waist, great support, firm enough, love the little pockets. The strap helps to carry from room to room, sling it over your shoulder and carry your newborn. Nov 17, 2018

it was a pain to have to always buckle in place, and like the boppy it didn't put bub at a good breast position (tiny boobs) Nov 17, 2018
- April D.

I actually have the regular pillow but ordered the Deluxe slip cover. The difference is the original only snaps and is not plush. this one has the option to velcro closed as well. Nov 17, 2018
- Katherine P.

This was great in the early months with baby. Stays on, supports weight, and I found it more useful than the Boppy. Nov 17, 2018
- Emily O.
Laurel, Maryland
I love this more than the boppy! It's harder to travel with, but it is much more supportive and easy to use. I refer to it as my "baby shelf" and the pocket is great for keeping BF essentials Nov 17, 2018
- Megan K.
Macomb, New York
So glad I got this second time around! Stays in place and support baby's weight so well! Nov 17, 2018

Love the support and soft fabric cover. I have another feeding pillow and this is the best by far. Nov 17, 2018
- Kali P.

I couldn't have survived without this pillow! I love MBF because of the buckle. I never had to worry about it sliding off when readjusting. BEST choice. Nov 17, 2018
