How helpful is this pillow for bottle feeding baby?

This pillow is so stinky and toxic I wouldn't allow it in my house at all for 5 min.

My baby would not take the tommee tippee bottles but this is the only nipple she would take. She is 4 mo & uses the medium flow & isn't gassy @ all! I would recommend this nipple especially for a baby who won't take any other bottle. If you're looking for something that specifically helps reduce gas maybe Dr Brown's (just from what I have heard, baby wouldn't take those either). I use the mOmma nipples w Avent bottles so it fits in the bottle warmer

I would definitely recommend as my baby is exclusively breast fed and she could easily use this one , she is still using it! She is 1 y o now�

I can't say it helped my little one to learn to latch, it just helped with her confusion between breast and standard bottle nipple. We started using it week 3 and has helped a lot. I could tell almost immediately that there was more consistency for her. I really like the calma. I like how she can control the flow so much better too. It helps with her gassiness and burping. Hope this helps! Good luck!

The cover is removeable but I actually have not used this yet nor seen the original version. I bought this for a few friends of mine and 3 of them say it is the best breast feeding pillow ever. According to them, there are two bumps on the pillow that keep the baby near your breast and the pillow is firm enough to hold the baby up unlike boppy's and regular pillows. You can also buy a few extra covers for when baby poops on the pillow and it needs to be washed.

i believe so, i returned it due to the fact that it did not lay back for smaller babies that drank a bottle in the high chair , not my favorite one . if you are using it for temp then fine but for everyday its not so good

Yes. It's quite handy And snuggles the baby well . If you are a big guy, you might want to pay attention to the size before orderin.

Very little trouble. I would not suggest an infant using this. Pillows are very well made. Even the Velcro strap has a self closing velour cover you sleep on the under side which is smooth when opened to a full pillow

I purchased this pillow when my daughter was born but didn't really use it for long periods of time until she was 4 months old because she didn't sleep on her own until then. She's 7.5 months and is still using it. Except for her being a wild sleeper and I find the pillow pushed on its side, I really like this pillow. I'll continue to use it until I feel she needs a big girl pillow. It's cute and you can throw it in the washer/dryer.

Formula can be used with this bottle set. The bottle is made to mimic breast feeding naturally. It is not gravity fed like most bottles. The baby must suck to express milk like the breast. It greatly helps with decreasing air while feeding. If you are going to formula feed with this bottle make sure the formula is mixed well then poured into the bottle. Good luck and enjoy.

Yes! I used it both wrapped behind and also cuddling it in front. I'm a little over 38 weeks now and I've abandoned the pillow. It takes too much effort to turn over which needs to happen very often.

I have not tried this personally. I mailed this to my daughter who has a new baby and is breast feeding. I was hoping this would give her back support at night.

Yes, good for newborns. My LO is a strong sucker, EBF with bottles. This nipple worked great.

It could work for that but not as well as a regular nursing pillow. The Boppy and Mombo are much more firm than this pillow.

You don't necessarily need bottles...you can always purchase the Medela brand nipples (with the plastic holder) for feeding unless you prefer to use special bottles

Hi, it is a bit too big to use as a feeding pillow. However, if you position it right in a spacious area you can use for feeding, I can be useful. Thanks!

I know it may not be recommended for babies that young, but the pillow is just supposed to relieve pressure from laying on the mattress pad. It gives cushion, so it isn't an issue which direction the baby turns its head! Hope this helps! :)
