Boppy Pillow Is A Must!

What is it? This is a semi-circular pillow that wraps around your waist to allow an easy resting place for your baby while nursing and being held.
How does it work? It wraps around your waist and you lay the baby down on it.
Cool Features: The coolest feature aside from being awesome for nursing, are all of the different boppy pillow cases!
Environmental impact: This pillow can be used through the entire first year +.
Practical Point: It will be uncomfortable for you to use this pillow right away if you come home after the birth looking 6 months pregnant still. Your bump will only get in the way and make it more difficult so try a flat sleeping pillow or a bundled blanket instead.
$$$ Savings: Try making your own boppy cover or have a friend over to help you with it, this will allow for money savings and a neat unique cover!
Do I recommend it? Absolutely YES!
Quantity Recommended: 1, 2 if you have a two story house
Age: 0-12 months
The boppy pillow is absolutely crucial when you have a newborn. The pillow can be used through nursing as well as an aid for your baby when he/she begins to sit up!

My wife really liked her Boppy Pillow while nursing our first child. I think we ended up getting two, even.
Now that we're on our way to the birth of our second child, I'm going to be digging in storage to see if I can find these pillows. That's always a new kind of adventure :)
We have two of these pillows - the extra was either kept upstairs or in the car for traveling/visiting. I should note that even the generic brand (walmart/target) is just as useful. But our daughter is almost 2 and still uses the pillow but for laying on. It's still worth it almost two years later.
