Hi All,

 

Took a look at the nursing nest and I believe that there will be many
parents who will buy this.  Personally I think it is an interesting and
rather innovative idea.  You can't use other nursing pillows like that -
especially not in bed.  I think it may have its place like many other
nursing 'assistants' out there for purchase - especially for those parents
who want to have their baby in bed with them but are afraid of rolling over
on them or of laying an arm on the baby's face.this particular pillow would
ease those fears and still allow baby to be in bed and in close proximity of
mom/parents.  

 

However, I do get tired of all the contraptions that say they are a "Must
have" thereby making breastfeeding seem like something you must spend a lot
of money on in order to breastfeed correctly.  We didn't have all these
gidgets and gadgets 100 yrs ago - we don't really need them now - but they
sure come in handy sometimes.  I think in this day, where we are constantly
trying to help moms make it easier to BF (so they WILL bf!), it is nice to
have pillows like this (and others) that can do that to some degree.  There
is one pillow out there I'd like to see banned as a BF pillow because it
causes more problems than anything else in my experience (and the experience
of my clients).  But since it is hugely advertised as a BF pillow that won't
happen any time soon and a lot of my clients have wasted money.

 

The Nursing Nest isn't perfect - but what is anymore?  The tabletop nursing
is a neat idea tho.not good for those short waisted moms.I didn't agree with
the statement of 'finally a pillow you can tandem nurse with' - there a many
pillows out there moms can nurse twins with that I thought were much better
suited than this one.

 

Just my thoughts this early Thursday morning.
