The Boppy breastfeeding pillow is wonderful! I took it to the hospital with in case of an episotomy. It can be used to sit on to make the car ride home more comfortable. I was glad I did, because it had to be used. Also most pillows are very flat at the hospital, so this helps to keep the baby at the level of the breast without your arms getting tired. It gets used several times daily and I own two of them. One is kept in the baby's room, for nursing durning the day and the other one is kept in the bedroom. Since she sleeps in our room for the time being, I do not have to wander with the pillow...
