    Hi ladies- I am sure this has been covered a bunch. I am currently 21 weeks pregnant with baby boys (#3 and 4) and trying to get together what I'll need for when the little one's arrive. Does anyone have a strong preference for a nursing pillow? Thanks in advance.

    Loved my foam Double Blessings EZ2 Nurse. It got me successful tandem feeding from day one until my girls outgrew the pillow at 13 months. Believe it or not, they will outgrow it!

    I had 2 pillows - one for home and one for my mom's house. Covered the inside with plastic bags for accidents and it was easy to clean. Just remove the cover and wash.

    In those early days I slept on the couch, pillow around me with my twins feeding at will. We all slept best that way. Sweet memories.

    Best wishes!

    EZ 2 Nurse pillow is a wonder!! We bought ours off www.doubleblessings.com - a little more than a boppy but definitely worth it!

    I have only heard great things about the EZ2 nurse pillow. In fact I don't think I've even heard of any other pillow endorsed by twin moms. I just bought one off craigslist for way cheaper than buying one online. And I've enlisted my mother to make a plush cover for it :) I still have a boppy from dd but I'm sure it will be way too small to multi-task a two-for-one.

    I had this as well for the time that I BFed both.

    HA! I'm breastfeeding my 1 month olds right now using my EZ 2 Nurse pillow. I found mine for $5 at a Twin sale before the boys were born... now I want 2!

    I also have a Boppy, (from Goodwill) which is really nice to nurse 1 baby or to burp a baby to support your elbow. I usually keep it in the car as we have a small car and unless I'm going out for more than 2 hours, don't plan to nurse out (I figure I can nurse 1 at a time out)... otherwise bring that EZ 2 Nurse pillow along.

    Bring it to the hospital- I started using it as soon as they started tandeming- which for us was with the help of the LCs.

    Good luck,

    Michelle
