How it works
As expecting parents, we often imagine the bliss of welcoming a newborn and the many joyful adventures that lie ahead of us. We might get frightened about the financial responsibilities and the many challenges of raising a rebellious teenager in the future, but it all goes away once you look at your little bundle of joy.
However, even though babies are super soft, cuddly and smell absolutely dreamy, the burden of raising a child starts almost immediately after you leave the hospital. Just when you thought the hardest part of pregnancy has passed, and you’ve given birth, so now you can go home and enjoy the company of the newest addition to the family, the baby needs to eat and your breasts, back, and arms are internally screaming.
The nursing problem is so common and often, designers and engineers have tried to help mommies everywhere by inventing support pillows that help babies stay in their right position and prevent discomfort and pain in the muscles which are often experienced by parents who spend long hours breastfeeding their little ones.
Origin
Seeing so many products of this kind on the market, it is undoubtedly that frequent breastfeeding is not the most enchanting experience for moms. If you watch Shark Tank, you’ll notice that in almost every season there is at least one invention related to nursing. However, who would’ve thought that a bachelor with a business degree would come up with one of the best-designed nursing pillows that help mothers and babies enjoy the feeding experience.
The creator of this little helper, Andrew Zenoff started to develop this product after observing the struggles some of his friends faced once they became parents. He strongly believed that anything is possible if you approach a certain problem with curiosity and meet the essential needs of the customers in order to provide an effective and long-lasting solution.
By inspecting the complaints from breastfeeding mothers, he started to realize that the ultimate burden of nursing rises from improper support that causes lower back pain, poor latching systems and the incorrect u-shaped pillows with which the babies roll inward or away. He raised funds from family and friends in order to create and test his own unique design.
The process of coming up with the most adequate solution was quite challenging since Andrew spent a year building more than 50 prototypes, and each of them had to be redesigned and retested multiple times. He recruited a team which helped him produce, tighten, shift, loosen and adorn each version until the test group of moms agreed that the design is perfect!

Comfort
The whole purpose of the pillows is to provide support in order for the mother and her baby to enjoy the breastfeeding experience in the most comfortable position. Feeding the baby can last for more than an hour and staying in the same position while holding your little one is not as enjoyable and relaxing as you might have expected before the arrival of your loving companion.
This product is specifically designed to eliminate the stress in our shoulders that leads to unbearable pain by implementing well-designed arm and elbow rests. The flexible sizing of the strap is very helpful as well, since it can be comfortably adjusted to the proper size of your body. You will never feel suffocated by it since it can be modified to the most desirable yet secure fit.
The pillow itself is quite cozy for babies since it allows them to stay firm in one position. Average nursing pillows can sometimes be quite stressful for moms and infants, since the U-shape can cause the baby to roll around so the panic is inevitable. With the My Brest Friend exceptional nursing pillow, laying close to mommy is a pleasant and relaxing experience for everyone.
There is an adorable yet highly efficient pocket included to the whole design that allows parents to store water bottles, snacks, burp cloths, wet wipes or other nursing items. It truly helps to the factor of comfort since you are able to have many accessories within reach, even your phone or remote control in case your baby is really hungry and the feeding time lasts longer.

Materials
This magnificent nursing pillow is made of high-quality and durable components in order to allow parents to use it for many years to come in case there is another addition to their family. The fabrics are not only safe and gentle on the skin, but well-stitched as well to provide proper support and withhold many cleaning cycles over the years.

The many patterns and colors of the slipcover are truly captivating and versatile. It is advised to wash it using the gentle cycle or simply in warm water, without using bleach or high temperature in order to maintain the beautiful design on the sheet. It is also not recommended to use a dryer since it can make the material shrink and not fit the foam afterwards.
The pillow is made of comfortable yet firm foam which does not have any flame retardants and has passed the strictest safety regulations. It can be easily cleaned with a mild soap to remove any spots and damp cloth. It should be dried out naturally, out in the sun or in a ventilated area since putting it in a washing machine or a drier is not advised and could damage the material.
