When feeding your baby, moms often find themselves using their arms to hold the baby and leaning down to bring their body close for breastfeeding. However, long-time bending can lead to back pain and strain on the neck. Using an organic breastfeeding pillow can provide both mom and baby with added comfort during feeding sessions. So, how can you effectively choose the right organic breastfeeding pillow? Let's explore together.
Features of Organic Breastfeeding Pillow
-
Help to correct breastfeeding posture, good for milk flow and scientific breastfeeding, so that the mother breastfeeding more comfortable.
-
Convenient for adjusting the baby's posture, reducing choking and spit-up, and making a more comfortable feeding experience for the baby.
-

-
Organic breastfeeding pillows can also be used as regular nursing support pillows, footrests, or even as support for babies learning to sit, making them versatile and long-lasting.
Attention to Use
-
When breastfeeding, the organic breastfeeding pillow is positioned around the waist, make sure the baby's arm rests comfortably on the pillow surface, providing comfort for both sides.
-
The baby should be kept close to the mom. Also, they can be placed directly in the recessed nest of the organic breastfeeding pillow, with their hip close to the nest. This allows the baby to be positioned sideways near the mother for breastfeeding or to lie flat for bottle feeding.
-
It is not recommended to use the organic breastfeeding pillow while the baby is sleeping to avoid affecting the development of the spine.
Suggestions for Selection
-
Check the support level. The organic breastfeeding pillow should be soft and moderately firm, providing adequate support without being too soft or easy to deform.
-
Choose healthy materials. Go for organic breastfeeding pillow surface fabrics in light colors, made from cotton materials. Fillings should be cotton or other non-irritating materials for the skin, offering good moisture absorption and breathability.
-
Easy to clean. Organic breastfeeding pillows are easy to get dirty with use. A pillow with removable cover is easier to clean and can effectively meet safety and hygiene requirements.
-
Choose the right shape and size. For moms only using the pillow for breastfeeding, a basic C-shaped pillow is sufficient. Go for pillows that are moderate in size, as those that are too big or too small may be difficult to use.
