If you need to wash a boppy...

Apparently there are INSTRUCTIONS on the Boppy website on how to wash the thing:

Read first. Wash later. YWIA.

    I wash it just like I wash our other pillows.

    I didn't use the tennis balls, so I'm assuming that's what made it look like crap unless I dried it at the wrong temp?

    We have down pillows so I dry them on air, but I thought I could dry the boppy on high? I'll probably try washing it again before I get a new one.

    I always do the tennis ball trick when washing our pillows. It helps keep the shape and helps beat out the extra moisture. I put the tennis balls in socks and dry on low heat. It usually takes a couple of dry cycles.

    Thanks :) I'll try washing it again -- hopefully it works! (I'm irrationally attached to the boppy).

    I just washed ours from when DD was a baby and dried it with our wool dryer balls.  I came out just as good as it went in.
