Mirine,

There are several reasons I don't like that particular pillow.  Of course
there are many different people and I am sure it works great for some.  I
find mothers using it and laying their baby across it and then lean down to
nurse the baby.  On tall women it doesn't seem to be tall enough for baby to
reach the breast.  I also have found that on larger women it bends and
creates a hole that baby slides into.  It also doesn't fit very well around
a large post-partum belly.  I think that if you are relatively small or
short, that many of these issues don't happen.  It always seems to be on
tall or large women that I have problems with the boppy.  Just wanted to
share the other side.  :)

sites that don't recommend Boppy, and I don't really know why.  I have used
them with preemie baby's and twins and squirmy full terms.>>
