I couldn't live without my Boppy pillow for breastfeeding my newborn. It enables me to find the right position for him to latch on and saves me from upper back pain since I'm not supporting his body weight with my arms. Unfortunately, I didn't think to pack the Boppy when I went to the hospital to deliver. The good news is that my husband brought it for me on day two of our stay and nursing my little guy got much easier!
