Products I Love: Infant

Ok so this time around there is no messing around with baby products. I know that I've been there before but there are some things out there that I didn't know about before that are great.

Breast Friend Feeding Pillow

This is the best breast feeding pillow that I've found. The Boppy is good in that it is shaped well for you to hold the baby and be comfortable, but I found that the boppy tends to move, slide away from your body as you're feeding or if the baby moves. The breast friend has a front shaped like the boppy, but it also has a back that wraps around you and buckles to the front. This not onl keeps the pillow in place, it supports your back nicely to. My only complaint about this, is that it is a little trickier to get into or get out of if the baby is fussy and you need to try and feed her quickly or get out and change her as you have to unbuckle yourself from it. But that is a minor detail to the comfort of breast feeding overall.


Nursing Scarf/Nursing Cover

I just found this scarf that doubles as a nursing cover. I never used a nursing cover with my first daughter but I didn't really ever find myself in a place to need it. I could always plan or get to a place where I didn't need it. Now with a toddler who likes doing all kinds of activities, like go to the farm or the aquarium or dance class, I find that I'm out in public way more with her and a newborn in tow. This scarf is an easy thing to wear and convert into a cover if I need to nurse baby #2. I got mine here on etsy.




Nursing Necklace

You're nursing and all of a sudden the little hands are clamped down on your necklace, the nice one that your husband got you for your first mother's day, and you're afraid she's going to break it. Well I've discovered nursing necklaces this go around. Wooden beaded necklaces or wood with fabric over them, for their little hands to grab on to without breaking it! It also can be used later on down the road as a teething necklace. I got mine here on etsy.
