Use the Right Pillows for Support

Breastfeeding in bed can be much more comfortable with the right pillows. Here are some tips:

  1. Nursing Pillow
    A crescent-shaped nursing pillow can provide support for your baby, ensuring they are positioned at the right height for easy latching.

  2. Back Support Pillow
    A sturdy backrest pillow or a wedge pillow can help you maintain a comfortable, upright position, reducing strain on your back.

  3. Leg Support
    Placing a pillow under your knees can relieve lower back pressure and improve overall posture.

  4. Arm and Elbow Support
    Use small, firm pillows to support your arms and elbows while holding your baby. This can prevent fatigue during longer nursing sessions.

Use an Adjustable Bed Base

An adjustable bed frame is a great way to make breastfeeding more comfortable for you and your baby.

By elevating the head of the bed, you can avoid hunching over, which can lead to back pain.
With fully customizable elevation options, you can place your baby at the right height to make breastfeeding more comfortable.
Split king size adjustable bed frames allow you to elevate one side of the bed while breastfeeding without waking your partner.
Finally, many adjustable bed bases come with a built-in massage feature, perfect for relaxing and falling asleep after feeding.
Whether you're a new mom or a seasoned professional, an adjustable bed frame is a great way to make breastfeeding more comfortable for you and your baby.

Making breastfeeding more comfortable

Taking the time to adjust your position will ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both you and your baby. We hope we've brought you some new things to try!
