Breast/chest feeding is known to be the best way to give your baby everything they need for healthy development and to build a strong immune system.
At the same time, it strengthens your parent-child bond and is a unique moment that only you can experience together. Magical!
A nursing pillow can help you to ensure that breast/chest feeding works optimally, especially at the beginning of your breast/chest feeding relationship. It supports you in positioning your baby optimally on the breast/chest, making it as comfortable as possible for both of you.
During the first few weeks of your child’s life, your daily routine may look something like this:
You will sit and breast/chest feed… change nappies…, breast/chest feed… go for a walk, breast/chest feed, change nappies… and repeat this every day. In total, you breast/chest feed for about 8 hours a day.
Your nursing pillow should therefore be ergonomic, comfortable and supportive on your back. Safety and position for both of you should be optimal. The pillow should not be able to slip away from your body or let your child slump down.
Our soft and ergonomic shaped Natural Curve™ nursing pillow offers all of these key features. Since we like to outdo ourselves, we’ve just given it a little makeover. Thanks to the new support strap, our pillow provides even more aid when breast/chest feeding.
Ergobaby’s best nursing pillow: now with a practical safety strap
Why is our Ergobaby nursing pillow so good?
The ergonomic shape of the Natural Curve nursing pillow was specially developed for the correct tummy-to-tummy position when breast/chest feeding. This enables you to position your baby at the optimal height, for easier docking and all-round healthy breast/chest feeding that is easy on the back.
Our Nursing Pillow is super soft and cosy while retaining its shape. The pillow has been enhanced with a buckled supportive strap. Simply put the belt around your waist to secure the pillow in place. This makes it even easier for both of you to hold your favourite breast/chest feeding position and enjoy the intimate moment.
Here are the main features and benefits of our new Nursing Pillow:
· Ergonomic shape: The unique contour positions your baby at chest level and reduces the likelihood of rolling back and forth. The comfortable height and supportive shape allows you to hold your child in your arms without straining your back and neck or slouching.
· Two-sided design: Removable, washable cover is made from two different fabrics offering maximum comfort and ensure that you are in the perfect position for breast/chest feeding.
· Benefits for babies: Your baby’s head is higher than their stomach, which helps their digestion. Your little one is supported in a straight position so that they do not have to tilt their head to drink. This also makes drinking and swallowing much easier.
· Practical handle: The carry handle makes handling easier for you.
· Dimensionally stable: Comfortable yet firm foam retains its shape and guarantees lasting support.
· Secure Fit: The buckled retention strap is easy to use and keeps the pillow in place during use.
· Adaptable Usage: Our nursing pillow is not only for mum and baby. It is also the perfect everyday helper for dads, siblings, grandparents and caregivers for cuddling or feeding with a bottle. When your baby is older, you can simply detach the harness and use the pillow for tummy time play. The buckles simply fold away into the fabric straps.
· Eco-friendly Shipment: To save packaging space, our nursing pillow is shipped compressed and only expands to its full shape after unpacking. This not only saves packaging material, but also CO2 emissions thanks to the shipping of a smaller package.
