Frida Mom Nursing Pillow, Adjustable Breastfeeding Pillow for Mom & Baby Comfort with Back Support, Customizable Wrap Around Waist Strap, and Pockets for Heat Relief

I bought this pillow in desperation to try and help my baby latch better. There was definitely an adjustment from the boppy pillow I had been using before, as this one is much higher and firmer, but after getting used to it, and working on baby’s latch, I have noticed this pillow does help hold them in a better position and offers more support. I like that it has a strap to hold it close to me so baby actually stays on it rather than falling between it and me as the pillow moves away as happens with other pillows. I also appreciate the adjustability of the height by removing inserts. I found the original full height to be too much but after removing one insert it holds baby right where I need them. The pocket is also quite convenient for keeping my phone close. The buckle does require both hands to put on, but I can undo it with only one hand. I understand there are different pillow and support preferences within the breastfeeding world, but for me this pillow has played a big role in being able to continue breastfeeding without pain. If you’re on the fence about it I’d say give it a shot!

The boppy pillow always had a lot of hype, so needless to say, that’s what I found out I was expecting. But, the boppy and similar pillows were just too awkward. The pillow didn’t fit properly and it was more of a hassle to hold that thing on me AND the baby. My back would hurt.The Frida mom nursing pillow is GAME CHANGER. It straps around you so it fits perfectly. You can remove layers if it is too high. The baby sits perfect at ta-ta level, so you don’t have to hold your baby much at all. My back no longer hurts. AND I have a little arm rest when scrolling on my phone while nursing at night. This pillow is PERFECT for breastfeeding, especially when you have a bad back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Worth the money.

I’m really torn about this.The good:I really liked how the strap would hold it close when strapped on.The ability to take out pieces to make it different thicknesses was helpful.The bottom layer is very plushThere is a pocket for pacis, burp cloths, or snacksThe not so good:The weird clasp was hard to get apart. Especially with one hand which… is more of the time with baby.It is really stiff with straight across and can’t really be used at and sort of twist or angle, making it not very customizable to the comfort of baby and also doesn’t work if you have a reflux baby that you need to keep more upright. A basic pillow did this betterOverall.. pulling a pillow in close was more convenient and versatile than this. Good intentions just not super practical.

I absolutely love this pillow!! I don't mean to fangirl out but this pillow was so wonderful after my c-section. It provided lots of support and I was able to bring my baby right up to me without hurting my incision.I was able to keep vitamin D drops, nail file, chapstick and a burp cloth in the pockets. The removable layers are brilliant. It's really customizable so I was able to get a lot of use out of it as my baby grew and we got more practice. Now that I don't need a nursing pillow I took the foam out and use the pillow part for tummy time.I do wish the strap was fully removable because I didn't need it after a while, that's the only thing I would change. I ended up tucking it and zipping it inside as best I could.Also the cover is machine washable! My baby is a spitter so that was incredibly useful. It's really loud to dry with the buckles so I flipped it inside out and zipped it closed to keep the noise down.I wish I'd bought this pillow from the start (I had another that I sent back) it was such a good buy and we can still find use for it now. Postpartum is hard. C-sections complicate things. Nursing can be challenging. This pillow made me so happy in those early days I literally cried about it lol. With some skillful positioning I was even able to eat while nursing, which is amazing when you're starving all the time but only have minutes to spare.

I brought many frida products in the past. When I purchased this, I was looking for a review that tested the Boppy, Frida pillow vs the My Breast friend pillow. I tried many different positions and levels and the Frida mom pillow didn’t work for us. It’s great for posture correction, but I think it’s best if you were sitting in a hard chair. The reality is I think most moms feed in the bed or couch or rocking chair and the baby doesn’t need to be so high (at least for me), so although it helped my back a bit I could never get the baby in a good position. I also tried both the pillow side and hard side. I prefer the My breast friend as it gives better back support and sits the baby lower so they can feed at an angle without breaking your back. Also the clasp was not convenient when trying to get a hungry baby to feed quickly. The my breast friend is easy to snap in quickly. Lastly I like how the my breast friend pillow is super light weight but also hard enough to prevent the baby from falling asleep too quickly on the breast. Not for us but good clever invention, nice fabric and nice packaging.

I really like the different layers on this, allow you to adjust to what fits best for you. This is the THICKEST pillow I've found, works good for "small chested" women. I use it to breastfeed while working at a desk. Very comfy cover too.
