Nursie® Breastfeeding Pillow

The Nursie Breastfeeding Pillow is perfect for on-the-go or post c-section moms! My favorite thing about this pillow is how portable it is. It is a really nice size that is big enough to be comfortable for baby but small enough to fit into a diaper bag or tote bag so you can carry it with you. We took a road trip this past week and it was nice to have something so portable and travel friendly. It was a breeze to feed on the road or at rest stops. Even at home, the Nursie pillow is so much easier to move around the house vs a traditional bulky breastfeeding pillow, making it effortless to keep the pillow by my bedside at night and in the living area during the day. Because it is smaller it has also been much, much more comfortable for me to use after my c-section than a traditional breastfeeding pillow which would push on the scar. It is versatile in that it can be used with football hold (which is mostly what I have been doing) or cradle hold, and I have found it to be comfortable in either position. Overall, I am very happy with the Nursie breastfeeding pillow and am thankful to have received this product to review from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

The Nursie has made it very easy and comfortable to nurse on the go! Whether at home or anywhere else, the pillow is comfortable for mother and baby. The smooth inside fabric is soft and the design is cute and gender neutral. I primarily use in my bed or on the couch as we are not leaving the house often these days. Baby boy seems to enjoy resting his sweet head on the pillow. The pillow is machine washable for easy convenient cleaning! I had a c section and the pillow is better for us moms who don’t want the pressure near our bellies. It’s small and compact which is nice As it doesn’t take up much space anywhere you put it. Grateful to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this breastfeeding pillow!

I have been suffering from wrist/joint pain from early pregnancy, and breastfeeding was definitely something that I was concerned about postpartum. I tried other breastfeeding pillows before but it was difficult for me to use them in the "right" position as 1) I am still recovering from abdominal and joint pain and 2) I'm much shorter and smaller than average, so the bulkier pillows didn't really fit right for me.

This Nursie pillow is definitely helpful for people like me because it doesn't put any pressure on your abdominal area, especially if you went through a C-section. Also you don't really need to worry about the "fit", because you just slip it right in around your elbow. Your wrists hurt much less as well. My posture has definitely gotten better with Nursie because I don't have to worry about my joint pains as much.

One other huge advantage of Nursie is that the size of this pillow is small enough that I can just take it to the pediatrician's office, on the car/train ride, or wherever I want as long as I have my diaper bag. It was kind of awkward to carry giant breastfeeding pillows when I had to leave home. Now I can take this Nursie pillow in my diaper bag and not worry about the bulkiness. Carrying the baby is hard enough, so it's nice to have one less thing to worry about. Also this pillow can be useful for mamas themselves! (It's so soft as you can see in my picture that even I fell asleep on it on the train when my husband was taking care of the baby.)

I would say Nursie is super useful for moms who are petite, still in recovery postpartum (particularly those who have joint and abdominal pain), who travel a lot, and when the baby is still small enough. My little one is still tiny, so I need to wait and see if this pillow would still be comfortable for her when she's bigger in size.

This pillow is a lifesaver (or armsaver!) I use this when I'm breastfeeding my little one in the rocker. It helps prop up her head so my arm doesn't get fatigued. Its also super comfy on the inside and I like that your hand is free if needed as well. Definitely a go to if you're breastfeeding!!!

Great material-- wonderfully soft and easy to use. It's designed well but not so easy to use with a newborn. Baby is too elevated to nurse comfortably in the position of my preference. I"m going to try again once baby is a little older and capable of staying on the pillow on his own. Otherwise, many thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing me and my newborn to try the Nursie!

I had used the Boppy with my first child and like it but it is cumbersome sometimes. This little arm pillow you slip right on and is perfect to provide cushion for baby’s head, to prevent sweaty arm when baby falls asleep, and makes the arm position more comfortable to sit in if you can’t move for a while due to a baby that won’t sleep when laid down. During feedings its much easier to adjust latch and move baby to different positions. They are easier to travel with and great in the car or anywhere you need to nurse. I have used it since day one with my 9lb infant, but I think it would work for any size baby to help bring them up to the breast for a more comfortable breastfeeding session. As a postpartum nurse I would recommend this to all new moms!
