xp: Twin nursing pillow?

I am sure someone has asked about this before at some point, but I couldn't find a post about it, so ... I'd like to buy a nursing pillow in the next week or two and am having trouble deciding. (I used a Boppy with my singleton and wasn't really a fan ...) The two I've been looking at are the My Brest Friend one and the EZ2 Nurse one. 

Has anyone used either of these and loved them? Or perhaps more importantly (since they both get pretty good reviews) does anyone hate/dislike either of these, and why? 

Thanks! :)

Re: xp: Twin nursing pillow?

  • My twins are not here yet for a few more weeks but I bought the twins deluxe My Brest Friend and used it with my son because I hated the boppy when nursing him. I regret not buying this sooner. As soon as I got that thing home I tested it out and loved it. So I vote for that one so many features that I like about it and it's comfortable with lots of support.

    I wasn't able to tandem feed very often (just trying to get myself comfortable and both on and nursing at the same time was too much for me) but I had and loved the Twins Deluxe My Brest Friend pillow. Super firm, no babies sliding/sinking down like the Boppy. I found mine on sale through Amazon.

    ETA: The only thing I didn't like was that the lumbar pillow in the back got squished after a while so it didn't quite sit right.

  • When I actually got a chance to tandem feed I used the Twins Brest Friend pillow and loved it! Didn't use it long enough to give you any negative feedback as I went to exclusively pumping due to latching issues with DD. Side note: the pillow is only $45 or so at Target which is a great price versus BRU that charges $80 or so.

  • Twins Brest friend. I tandem them almost exclusively.

    At first I took off the back part but recently put it back on as they have gotten longer. I bf in bed and their feet were pushing against the headboard and they were popping themselves off all the time and it was super annoying. With the back pillow I have some more give.

  • Another vote for the Twins Breast Friend. Even when I was just nursing one of them at a time it was super convenient and comfy. I also liked that it has that little pocket for a water bottle etc, it kept things handy when I felt like I couldn't really move too much for fear of breaking a latch.

  • I've been using the twins my brest friend to tandem feed over 5 months now. I love it.
  • I use the Breast Friend Twin pillow and LOVE it! It is easy to use and comfortable. I highly recommend it. It makes tandem feeds simple.
