Nursing Pillow MVPs of 2024 Winners
DockATot La Maman Wedge Nursing Pillow
Want a stylish option you can leave lying around your house? The La Maman Wedge boasts a sleek design, beautiful fabric coverings, and a luxe tassel finish. Thanks to its firm filling, it can easily double as a back support or tummy time wedge, and a covered zipper ensures your comfort. The company has also gone the extra mile to achieve REACH-compliant chemical safety.
Frida Mom Adjustable Nursing Pillow
This structured nursing pillow offers firm support in a variety of positions and is a wizard at adjusting to your needs. Three removable layers allow you to tailor the pillow’s height for the perfect latch position. A back cushion attached to the waist strap offers moms extra lumbar support. The removable, machine-washable cover also includes pockets for nursing accessories, your cell phone, or even heating pads to alleviate pain.
Frida Mom Perfect Latch Nursing Pillow
Blessed Nest Organic Nesting
A cult favorite, this large pillow boasts natural materials, from its GOTS-certified-organic cotton outer shell to its buckwheat-hull filling. The hulls move like bean-bag filling but lock into place for more stable positioning than foam. The crescent shape requires no straps or buckles for use and proves surprisingly versatile at positioning. Fans put it to work for everything from nursing support and tummy time to back support for Mom.
My Brest Friend Original Nursing Pillow
A true classic prized for its firm foam structure, My Brest Friend’s original pillow comes in a wraparound cushion design that’s the perfect solution for moms experiencing back pain or arm/elbow discomfort during nursing. You can adjust the straps for the right fit and stash your nursing accessories in the pockets. The soft, cotton cover is removable, washable, and comes in a variety of cute prints.
Snuggle Me Organic Feeding Support Pillow
Another organic option that’s a bit more affordable, the Snuggle Me pillow sports an organic cotton slipcover and hypoallergenic, polyester fiber fill that includes no added chemicals or flame retardants. The washable, wraparound design is on the plusher side, with less bulk and no straps to make one-handed use easy.
Humble-Bee Nurse Sling Nursing Pillow
An option that shines in on-the-go situations, this model combines the advantages of a baby sling and a nursing pillow. Its extremely lightweight design and compact build make it an easy addition to your outings, and the whole pillow converts into a sling bag if you want. You can easily adjust the cushioned back strap to achieve the proper fit and positioning for you and your baby.
Bbhugme Adjustable Nursing Pillow
Terrific versatility is the hallmark of the Bbhugme® Nursing Pillow, which supports a variety of nursing positions and preferences with its flexible shape and moldable microbead filling. You can adjust the pillow's firmness by tightening or loosening the end closures and use the adjustable ties to accommodate a range of body shapes. The outer cover is machine-washable, OEKO-TEX-certified cotton.
My Brest Friend Twin & Plus Nursing Pillow
This variation on the original My Brest Friend pillow includes many of the same features, such as adjustable straps, accessory pockets, and all-around cushioning. In this model, the square-shaped pillow increases the amount of cushioning in order to accommodate twins. The design also incorporates a high backrest, which reviewers say provides some of the best lumbar support on the market.
Ergobaby Natural Curve Nursing Pillow
Developed with lactation experts to be ergonomically sound and reduce rolling, this model from Ergobaby boasts an easy strap-on design with two sides for different positioning. It’s nicely portable, thanks to its smaller size, carry handle, and lightweight materials. The foam inner pillow offers firm support for Mom and baby, and the outer cover is easily machine washable.
Momcozy Adjustable Nursing Pillow
With its all-around cushion shelf, Momcozy’s pillow offers incredible support for your baby and your arms during feeding or cuddling sessions. At the cushion’s front, a small pillow keeps your little one from rolling and helps with head and neck support. The pillow straps onto you with an adjustable fit that plus-size moms rate highly. Other selling points? It comes in a variety of cute prints and boasts an affordable price.
