Boppy Pillow

Colleen P.

weeThink

The Boppy gets high marks for its multi-functionality that extends beyond breastfeeding support and some moms can’t imagine nursing without it. weeSpring moms also love to use this pillow for other purposes like tummy time or learning to sit up straight, and some found it helpful for propping up babies with reflux. They also like the washable pillow covers that are available in many colors and designs, and suggest buying more than one.

The Catch: Some moms complain that the pillow doesn’t fit properly around the tummy or support enough support to hold the baby at breast level.

Featured Parents' Reviews

  • we took this to the hospital with us! before the baby my husband used it as a pillow in the hospital. we used it for feeding and it was super helpful then used it for tummy time later on! a must have! Jul 31, 2023

  • I used this with my singleton and now couldn’t get through our multiple feedings without it! Very hand if you’re bottle feeding twins like we are. Jul 30, 2023

  • My boppy pillow made a huge impact on tummy time and breastfeeding. It makes tummy time a lot easier on your little ones, and breastfeeding a lot more comfortable! Jun 02, 2023

    • Joanna B.

    • Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania

    Worked great for those first few months and also a great tool for letting little siblings hold their new baby brother or sister Apr 17, 2023

    • Rylie b.

    • United States of America

    Definitely a must have! my baby loves to sit in this & it works great while breastfeeding, a staple in our house! Mar 22, 2023

  • I was a big fan of my Boppy Pillow. It was easy to travel with and made feedings so much easier for me and my littles. Mar 09, 2023

  • This is my favorite purchase I’ve made. I love how helpful it is for nursing and how it transitions to be used in other ways as baby grows. This is now my go-to shower gift for new moms. Feb 08, 2023

  • Love it. My son sleeps on his side most of the time and he actually hugs it. Very comfortable and fabric is fresh which is probably why my son loves it so much since he runs hot.. Nov 08, 2022

  • This is more than just a nursing pillow, I used mine for extra support while in the hospital, for tummy time, for practice sitting up, for bottle feeding, breast feeding. Easy to keep clean. Sep 20, 2022

  • I love these for 4m and up. When baby gets a bit bigger. Can help with breastfeeding and tummytime or a cushion around baby learning to sit unassisted! Sep 10, 2022

  • This is a must have with a baby. We used it from birth until probably 6-8 months. Aug 28, 2022

  • These are great for my different stages. Nursing your baby as a newborn to get the proper hold. Then as they are able to start to sit up, you can put this around them so if they happen to fall ove Aug 21, 2022

  • I love that you can change covers. This really helped when our older kids wanted to help feed the baby. We also use it for tummy time. Jul 22, 2022

    This pillow was by my bedside for a while. In those first few weeks, it was a necessity. After I didn’t need it for feeding anymore, it became a chair and somewhere to prop my baby up for tummy time. May 17, 2022

  • Saved my arms and back when breastfeeding for the first few months and is great for people to help hold the newborn May 02, 2022

  • The pillow is great but we didn’t end up using it much. I do love how you can buy covers to change Apr 21, 2022

  • This was helpful to have during the newborn stage for feeding baby but now we just try to use it as a way to help support sitting, we could of likely done without it all together though Apr 14, 2022

  • I found this awkward to use while breastfeeding but it worked great for tummy time and when my kids were learning to sit up. Mar 02, 2022

  • I didn’t find this helpful for nursing. It was useful for tummy time, propping baby up and once baby was sitting. It’s nice that the cover is changeable and washable. Useful but not necessary for me. Feb 26, 2022

  • Not great for a nursing pillow, but works well to help baby learn how to sit upright. Feb 17, 2022

    • Lexi J.

    • Thomasville, Georgia

    They seem like a great idea at first, but they aren’t big enough to actually help with support! Your neck and back will begin to hurt from having to slouch over. Jan 30, 2022

  • Used this a lot in the beginning but not much after 2 months. Jan 21, 2022

  • Love this pillow helps me out a ton when I breastfeed my baby. And when he gets older it will help sit him up Nov 06, 2021

  • I have a love/hate relationship with this. I usually keep my good pillow where I usually nurse throughout the day, and I'll use this in the middle of the night. It's nothing special, but it works. Sep 11, 2021

    • Sue Z.

    • North Potomac, Maryland

    Got this mainly for breastfeeding but didn’t use it much. It was nice to use for tummy time with the baby or to prop up the baby. Like that the covers were removable to wash. Jul 15, 2021

  • Used for both of my children snd comfortably nursed for over a year the firm time. It is comfortable and allows baby to find a good position to nurse without pressure on you. Jul 14, 2021

  • Uaed it with the first kid and never again. Useful for a nursing pillow but not necessary to have. Jun 28, 2021

  • This is a must have for all babes. So many uses. Never used it has a BF pillow although I went a year with each kid. The other uses were definitely worth it still! Jun 05, 2021

  • Pillow is soft and is good to use for nursing baby or propping old baby up to drink bottle. Jun 03, 2021

  • The best thing I invested in for my second baby. I wish I would have gotten it for my 1st born my baby is about to be 1yr and till this day he still uses it. The price is amazing. Jun 02, 2021

    • Ash S.

    • Fairview, North Carolina

    I really didn’t get much use out of this, though I tried b/c it has so many rave reviews. I ended up propping pillows from my couch under my arm for a more comfortable, customized “fit.” May 18, 2021

  • It was a quality boppy pillow...the cover was easy to take off and wash. I didn’t use a boppy pillow to breastfeed either of my kids but I did use it as a prop for tummy time and sitting up :) May 18, 2021

  • This made feedings and snuggles much easier on our arms as parents and others when they came to hold our baby. It is definitely a must have if you are breast feeding. May 14, 2021

  • I love this pillow so much, my only complaint is that I have to constantly search my house for it because my three-year-old likes to relax on it, wish I had one in every room! Apr 21, 2021

    • Emma C.

    • Greenville, South Carolina

    I have two of these and they always set baby too high for feeding. I used for propping him when he was older, but never for feeding. Apr 01, 2021

  • I used this with both my babies and it is essential Jan 28, 2021

    • Janna C.

    • San Juan Capistrano, California

    So helpful with breastfeeding. Ended up being my favorite pillow: just the right height, shape etc Do recommend getting an extra cover and the waterproof liner to help when spit ups happen. Jan 25, 2021

  • Multiple uses! great for breastfeeding, just hook across your belly. Can prop baby up to eat bottle. when baby is able to sit up, great pillow to place behind so baby doesn't fall and hit head Jan 16, 2021

    • Amy Y.

    • Van Meter, Iowa

    This is a must have for feeding or breastfeeding. It works great for Tummy time when they are little as well! Dec 25, 2020

  • This is one of the best baby products I own! It makes nursing so much easier and more comfortable and also works great for propping baby up on the gorund! Dec 24, 2020

  • Loved this! I had a c-section and this was a life saver to keep the baby off my incision. This was also great to just help hold my baby in the right spot so I could make sure I had a good latch. Nov 05, 2020

  • This pillow was nice when my daughter was learning to sit up. I didn't like it for nursing because she'd fall in towards my body because of the pillow's curve. Nov 04, 2020

  • I had a c-section and this boppy pillow made holding and nursing my baby so much more comfortable. I also used our boppy with my older children during tummy time and while learning to sit alone. Oct 20, 2020

  • I was under the impression that this is a must have however I find very little use for it. It does support my baby as much as I hoped it would and the shape is quite awkward for a small baby. Sep 19, 2020

  • I would include this as a must have for nursing. Very comfortable and doesn't leave you spending a bunch of time having to stack pillows. Sep 13, 2020

  • I didn't buy one for the first month thinking it was the same as a couch pillow. I was wrong. My back was in so much pain before I got a boppy and it is so worth it. They have cute covers too! Sep 09, 2020

  • This pillow saved my spine! I was in so much pain from being hunched over breastfeeding. After a few days of using this, breastfeeding was so much more enjoyable for baby and me. Sep 05, 2020

  • Best to use for middle of the night feedings. Love how it fits around your waist and it easy to put away when you are done. Also great for tummy time and practise sitting! Sep 04, 2020

  • The prints on this guy are super cute- but this is way less supportive than the My Brest Friend pillow (which is ugly as sin). I wouldn’t recommend to my friends registries. Aug 16, 2020

    • Vicky C.

    • Silver Spring, Maryland

    This is great. Helps support baby while feeding. Easy to use for tummy time, too. Aug 15, 2020

    Why weeLove Milkflow Lactation Cookies:

    In case you need a valid excuse to eat cookies, here’s a really good one: boosting milk supply. Nursing moms need to fuel their bodies to keep up with the demands of milk production and new parenthood. (If you’ve been wearing the same pants for three days—we get it, girl!) While lactation teas, capsules and powders aren’t for everybody, cookies most certainly are.

    Milkflow™ from UpSpring created the first ever lactation cookies made with the dream team of ingredients: Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle. These two essentials work together to help naturally promote breast milk supply in those early days, during your baby’s growth spurts (when you’re glued to the glider for feedings!), and pumping sessions.

    Available in Oatmeal Raisin and Double Chocolate Chip, cookies are non-GMO and made in the USA with all natural ingredients. These tasty treats come in packs of two—perfect for tossing in your diaper bag for a healthy snack on the go. Each box comes with 10 packs (20 cookies total), so you’ll be able to keep your milk production going strong while keeping “Hangry Mom Running Errands” at bay. It’s a win-win.

    Moms are all about multi-tasking (just ask anyone who can fold laundry, while doing an Amazon Prime order, while playing peek-a-boo with the baby.) Luckily, here's a way to get multiple things done at once, with a lot less juggling...

    UpSpring Milkflow Coffee Pods give nursing women a much-needed caffeine fix—along with milk-boosting duo fenugreek and blessed thistle—in just one cup of joe. A lactation supplement in easy-to-brew coffee? Yes, please!

    Compatible with most Keurig K-Cup coffee makers, each pod serves 55mg of caffeine and 450mg of Fenugreek to help establish or increase a healthy milk supply (hello, growth spurts!). All ingredients are natural, gluten-free, and non-GMO. And don't worry—the pods themselves are made with mother (earth) in mind, too. They're 100% compostable, 100% plant-based, and BPA-free.

    Ready to pop in a pod and get back to that master multi-tasking? Because there's a diaper bag to be packed + car keys to be found.
