Saw this today
brestfriend

Had real trouble with ds getting him up high enough to feed so spent 6 months leaning over him. Anyone tried this?

It can be a problem and lead to a bad back,but a pile of regular pillows also does the trick.

I tried a range of different pillows when I was still bf and a traditional breast feeding cushion thing but to no avail. Feeding was fine apart from chronic back ache. Was wondering is this might be the answer for next baby

It has good reviews.
If it means you are comfy b/feeding,then worth the money i reckon.

I loved it!

Faster than arranging all those damn pillows, especially in the night.

At the breastfeeding clinic I used to go to they had big solid foam pillows called Comfyfeed. I ended up buying one and it was a godsend. I became addicted to it and ended up lugging it everywhere! It's made by some company in Eastbourne and costs about £30.

It does look so convenient. I could never get the pillows right, he was always too high or too low, particularly in bed at night. Plan to get a high backed chair for feeding next time too.
