Nursing Pillow Question

I picked up a My Brest Friend pillow today, but when got home realized there is a twin version available. Did you find you needed a twin pillow, or is a regular version ok?

  • The twin version is gigantic.  When I tandem nursed (or attempted) it worked really well.

  • I have the twin version and my sister has a Boppy that she uses with her son. I obviously haven't used mine yet, but the twin pillow is much, much bigger then the Boppy and seems like it could support two babies much better.

  • If you want to tandem nurse, you for sure need the twin version.

    I have two boppys too b/c most of the time I feed one after the other.  But I still use the tandem pillow at night.  I couldn't feed both of them at once without it (well, I could, but I would HURT after)

  • Definitely get the twin version. I had the EZ 2 Nurse and when I would nurse without it, it was always awkward. Much more comfortable with a twin pillow.

  • Yep - ditto pp.  I had a Boppy and Brest Friend from my singleton...  Had to buy the Twin Brest Friend to tandem nurse.  Although now I just do double cradle without a pillow...  But in the early days a twin nursing pillow is a must.
