Trying to decide which twin BF pillow to get? There's so many out there, and from previous experience they can make such a huge difference to your BFing experience. What was your fav and why?

    My Brest Friend twin delux. Great support, very comfortable, muh better than my boppy that is flimsy and was use for everything but BF. It supports a lot of weight too (used it with my oldest when he got to be around 18 months) and will be using it tomorrow to nurse my twins for the first time :)


    Together 6 wonderful years.

    Same here! I loved the My Brest Friend twin pillow! It is huge but it does give great support....I wouldn't have been able to tandem w/o it (well, not without stacking up a gazillion pillows underneath the Boppies)

    @mellissalynay90: Good luck tomorrow!!! Soo exciting! :)

    I am wondering the same thing right now too!   Anyone use the twin z pillow?   I am considering that right now.

    I'm using the Twin Z Pillow.  It's working fine.  It was developed by a twin mom, so I was eager to support her business.

    Two comments:

    1) I do need to prop a pillow in the middle underneath it so that their heads are elevated.  

    2) The circle is too wide for me.  (I'm a size 4).  There is a big gap between me and the arms of the pillow.  So I need to pull the arms in close and overlap them in the middle.  

    All that being said I am still using it to tandem feed.  The boys are six weeks and I've been using it since they got home.

    I use the twin z for tandem formula feeding. I love it , very easy to clean you just pop off the cover and throw it in the wash. It has a strap to make the holes smaller for when the babies are tiny and you want to prop them for feeding or hanging out in. When I did try to bf in the beginning it was very comfortable and nice having back support.

    I used the my brest friend twin pillow. I like it (still use it at 13.5 months old). I just recently heard about the twin Z pillow. I like the look of that once because of the back support.
