1. Can I wash the pillow?
Each pillow comes with a removable slip cover that
is machine washable. Additional covers are sold separately
for those who would like an extra cover while the
other is in the wash. The pillow itself is made of
a high density memory foam and should not be put
in the washing machine. Light surface cleaning is
acceptable if necessary.
2. Can I use this while wearing a nursing bra?
Yes. The pillow works exactly the same way as when
used without a bra. Just compress the pillow and place
it under your breast. It will lay over the bra strap
that may also be under your breast.
3. Can the pillow be used with baby supporting products
like “My Brest Friend” and the “Boppy?”
Yes. The Utterly Yours™ Breast Pillow is complimentary
to these types of products. While these products support
the baby during nursing, the Utterly Yours™ pillow
provides support for the breast so that moms are free
of having to hold and support their breast themselves.
4. Is the pillow disposable?
No. The Utterly Yours™ Breast Pillow is made
of a high density memory foam and the cover is made
of machine washable fabric. However, Utterly
Yours™ has introduced a hospital grade version of the
pillow that with disposable covers for nurses
and lactation consultants who would like to introduce
the product to new moms during their stay in the hospital
post partum.
5. Can I use the pillow when I’m nursing while
lying down?
The pillow was designed to be used while in a sitting
position, however, we have heard from moms that this
has been extremely helpful even when they nurse while
lying down. It may help give the breast an extra lift
to provide a better angle for your baby to eat.
