Hi, just wondering what brands people have used and recommend? They seem so expensive and am reluctant to spend $70 - 80!

I just used a normal tri-pillow, which was great!

Yep, just used a normal pillow or tri pillow for the first couple of weeks and then nothing. A pillow to go behind you if wherever you are feeding does not have a straight back is just as important in those early days I found.

Agree with the others. In the early days I found a couple of regular pillows were handy. But after a couple of weeks I wasn't using anything.

Although a few of the girls in my coffee group still use their pillows, I often wonder how they get on feeding when out and about though.

I second the tri pillow. Although I only used with DD for a little bit. IMO the ''breastfeeding'' pillows are a waste of money. If it turns out you need one you can always get one after bubs is born

We sell the Baby Baby range of breastfeeding pillows and without being bias I think these are the best by far. I currently use one for my 6 month old daughter and used one when my 4 year old was born.

I loved mine! I had a baby first one from baby city which was an absolute godsend for my premmie baby. I'll defo be holding onto it for any future babies.

I used the zoo pillow at the hospital and that was even better tho - the shape was more accomodating IMO.
