I agree wholeheartedly with your evaluation of Boston Billows. The one I
bought at a conference for lactation consultants was fabulous-it eventually
walked with a patient. I had dreams of replacing but guess it is too late!
Why did they recall them if there have been no injury (probably a rhetorical
question)? I don't understand this-and, am so disappointed.

Subject: Nursing Pillows [bcc][faked-from]
It was with sadness and disappointment that I received the FDA notice the
other day on the Boston Billows. I have found this to be a very helpful
adjunct to new mothers' positioning and comfort in beginning and continuing
breastfeeding. Anyone who has purchased this pillow, has loved it and of
course,
there have been no dangers or problems with it since it is used by an adult
while nursing an infant. Unlike most other nursing pillows, this one
accomodated all types and sizes of postpartum bellies and made c-section
nursing
comfortable. However, be that as it may, this item will no longer be
marketed as
a nursing pillow and I would like to suggest a replacement to those who
ask.
I feel that My Brest Friend is so unyielding and stiff and how can a larger
mom use it? Any other favorites out there above and beyond the generic bed
pillow? Thanks, Ann Conlon-Smith, IBCLC, LLLL
Breastfeeding Saves Lives If more infants worldwide are exclusively fed
mother's milk-no food or formula until the age of six months-at least 1.3
million
lives could be saved this year, the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF)
said recently.
