How interesting. I was just having a boppy discussion with one of my moms 
and she said something similar - her breasts were so big and the baby was so 
small that the boppy was what worked best for her. The discussion started as 
a breastfeeding in public discussion. Mom had brought her boppy with her to 
the office for her baby's 2 month well exam. She said she never would have 
nursed her first two children in public, but now with her fourth she'll 
nurse anywhere and she brings her boppy with her!
