How to Use Our Pillows Proper use of our nursing pillows will assure you have the best breastfeeding experience. Original, Deluxe, Pro, Travel Twins Plus Original, Deluxe, Professional, and Travel Nursing Pillows

Product Care Instructions Follow these instructions for ongoing care of your My Brest Friend nursing pillow and breastfeeding accessories. WASH Slipcovers: original, deluxe, twin, travel nursing pillows 1. Unzip the slipcover and remove completely from the breastfeeding pillow. 2. Zip cover closed to protect zipper prior to washing. 3. Wash in warm water on the gentle cycle. Do not use hot water or bleach. 4. Do not put cover in the dryer. Air-dry the cover to prevent shrinkage. 5. For all professional nursing pillow slipcovers, wipe down with an anti-microbial wipe or spray. WIPE Slipcovers: professional nursing pillow 1. Use a soft cloth to wipe clean with anti-microbial spray. SPOT CLEAN Inside Cushion: original, deluxe, twin, and professional nursing pillows 1. Foam breastfeeding pillows should not be submerged in water or placed in the washing machine or dryer. 2. Use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot-clean. 3. Leave nursing pillow in a well-ventilated area to dry before replacing cover. CLEAN Travel nursing pillows 1. Unzip and remove the cover. Follow slipcover instructions above for washing. 2. Wipe the inflatable travel nursing pillow with a damp cloth and mild soap. 3. Wipe dry or lay out to dry before replacing cover.

For nursing covers 1. Wash in warm water on gentle cycle. 2. Do not use hot water or bleach. 3. Machine dry on low heat. What is the difference between your regular and deluxe nursing pillow? Both models have all the same supportive, patented My Brest Friend features. The deluxe model offers baby-plush soft fabric and a double-featured strap that combines velcro for easy-on and the silent-release buckle for a quiet removal that won t wake a sleeping baby. What fabrics are used to make My Best Friend nursing pillows? The breastfeeding pillow is made of a recyclable foam and covered by a removable, machinewashable cover. The cover is made of 100% cotton for the original nursing pillow, and 100% polyester for the deluxe nursing pillow. What should I do with my pillow when I am done breastfeeding? Because of the personal nature of this breastfeeding product, we recommend not passing it along to other mothers. You can place your My Brest Friend nursing pillow with your other recyclables. Some moms use My Brest Friend as a support for their own activities like sewing, etc., and some use it as a play pillow for their baby learning to sit up. Can I use My Brest Friend to nurse twins? Yes! Many mothers use My Brest Friend to nurse twins. As long as the babies are small enough to fit onto the pillow, this should work well for all three of you. You can also use our My Brest Friend Twins Plus pillow. Why are there two bumps on one side of the pillow surface? These are called feeding risers and they raise the baby s head just a bit, aiding ingestion and digestion. We incorporated this feature into our design based upon the recommendations of lactation consultants. I just gave birth and My Brest Friend doesn t seem to fit why? Within the first week of giving birth, a woman s uterus continues to be enlarged. As your uterus begins to shrink over the course of the first week postpartum, the pillow should begin to fit more comfortably.

What sizes will the pillow fit? My Brest Friend fits up to a 44-inch waist, making it a good choice for breastfeeding moms and even many bottle-feeding dads. Our Twin/Plus Size pillow supports larger sizes. What is the weight limit for my baby to use My Brest Friend? The pillow supports babies up to 18 months and about 20 pounds. More importantly is that you and your baby are comfortable.
