What kind of twin nursing pillow do you use?

Hi Ladies!

 It's registry time :)  What twin nursing pillows did you use, and why did you like them/not like them?

Also, if I get a twin nursing pillow, do I also need boppies?

 

Thank you in advance!

Re: What kind of twin nursing pillow do you use?

  • I adore my EZ2Nurse pillow. I don't think I would have been able to tandem feed without it. We also have boppies, which we use more for propping up babies to sleep and when DH bottle feeds them.

  • I"m not nursing yet but we got the EZ2 Nurse pillow and we have three boppies.

  • I've only ever used the EZ2Nurse and it works great. You definitely want 2 boppies also to prop babies in when they are little. Great for when DH feeds pumped milk.

  • Another EZ2nurse user here. I LOVED that pillow. I was able to tandem nurse them from very young to very big! lol (we are weaning now at 14 months)
  • I ditto what everyone else has said. I have the EZ2 nurse pillow and love it! I tandem nurse J&A when I'm home. I hardly ever feed them separately anymore. Feeding them together makes nursing so much more manageable. We also have two boppies and we use them every day.

  • I use the EZ2nurse pillow as well.  I also have  boppies-- one upstairs and one downstairs.  I do tandem nurse sometimes, but I prefer nursing one at a time, just because it gives me that time alone with each baby.  But of course, tandem nursing is a real time saver!  I think you will want to do both.

  • I've been using the EZ2Nurse for a couple of weeks and it's been working out well.  

    Just a note: I use the flat side for breastfeeding and not the slanted side. 

  • Haven't nursed yet but I got the my brest friend pillow and 2 boppies.

  • To be honest, I got two boppies and never even used them for nursing. It was much more comfortable just to use a regular pillow I could form to my body.  I do use the boppies at every feeding since I just FF now. I prop each of them in a boppy and take turns burping. Also, its great for my son who has reflux issues to play without laying flat on his back.

    I was surprised at that too. I think the My Breast Friend twin version is new, whereas the EZ twin pillow has been around longer, so maybe stupid BRU just thinks we're only interested in the latest version of stuff.... And it seems the My Breast Friend twin is not out stock at BRU, which just figures. I bought mine off Amazon.
