HI,

Anyone used one of these? Having trouble with postitioning with DS2 (he is 3 weeks now), fine downstairs on sofa but trouble in bed (he gets terrible wind/griping pains at night too and wonder if positioning adds to this as his latch is not great when i'm sitting up in bed).

Do not feel comfortable feeding lying down, can't see how to do the rugby hold (if anyone wants to offer suggestions i would be grateful)

I have one and it's fantastic. It supports your back, in addition to taking some weight off your arms. I'm less inclined to use it now that my DS is nine weeks, but it was a lifesaver in the beginning with all those frequent feeds.

i used this for the first few weeks for both of my babies. I found it great for getting the baby into a good position. it had a little pocket on the front where i put my phone, remote controls, tssues, snacks. I think my posture was alot better with it also.

You should certainly be able to sell it again afterwards - these things tend to go on ebay really well.

i've got a widgey pillow that I love. Still using it with 15lb 9week old DS. It's also good beacuse it can be used as a 'sit me up' when he's a bit bigger! It' much better then most U shaped ones as it does stay around my waist, actually fastening it seems a bit excessive to me! And means you're stuck in it if you need to grab a muslin ASAP! which happens a lot!

This is the amazon link, but ASDA had them for £16 which is where I got mine with a red lady bird cover!

Hi Ladies,

quick update, bit the bullet and brought one. Was the best £45 i have spent in a long time! Feeding is so much easier! Thanks for the great advice.
