Vote - My Brest Friend Nursing Pillow - Worth the Money?
I would like to hear your vote whether the "My brest (yes, it's spelled brest) friend nursing pillow" is worth the money.
Side note - I tried the boppy with my first, hated it. It wasn't "fluffy" or high enough to hold baby up where I needed him. I guess my boobs are smaller than average!
Thanks!

I loved it. Wouldn't use any other. It is nice and firm and higher than the boppy. Much better for back support.

I loved it and it was well worth the money when I got it (8 years ago). I find the Bobby pillow to be just as great though. If you lived near me, I'd give you mine!

Yes, it is absolutely worth it!!! I also had a Boppy and hated it, I'm also smaller than average, ha ha... A friend of mine actually mailed hers to me because I was having such a problem getting good positioning with the baby which was affecting the latch. It was a life saver! The difference was like night and day for me and baby. So, yes, get the My Brest Friend! You'll love it!

there is one, that is simmilar to the boppy, but MUCH fluffier and has the wrap around feature you may like too.

I choose the My Brest Friend pillow over the Boppy. It's much more secure and I can even pick my baby up on the pillow and walk around. Yes! It's that sturdy. Do that with a Bobby! I have both versions, the delux and the inflatable. I actually prefer the inflatable since it uses a latch instead of a velcro strap. My baby would have a heart attack at the loud noise the velcro strap would make. Plus the inflatable version is much cheaper and I feel that it's bascially the same thing.

I loved the boppy better. there's all sorts of straps and weird things with the breast friend. Boppy is simple and easy. My son now uses it as a pillow to look at books on. And it helped him sit up when he couldn't. I vote Boppy. So worth it.
