Utterly Yours™ UNVEILS HOSPITAL GRADE VERSION OF ITS
AWARD WINNING BREAST PILLOW AT 2006 ILCA CONFERENCE
Successful in Delivering Hands-Free Nursing, New Version of Breast Pillow Provides Health Care Communities with Immediate Breastfeeding Aid For Mothers in Post Partum
PHILADELPHIA, PA July 12, 2006 - Utterly Yours™,
two-time award winner for its Utterly Yours™ Breast
Pillow, will unveil a hospital grade version of the mom-invented
product at the 2006 International Lactation Consultant Association
[ILCA] Conference in Philadelphia, PA – the largest
U.S. lactation conference that draws consultants from around
the world. Designed to simplify the nursing process and provide
a hands-free solution, the crescent-shaped cushion is made
of a high density memory foam that positions the breast upward
so that moms no longer need to hold their breast while nursing
their baby.
First introduced to retailers and lactation consultants across the U.S. in August
2005, the product has been in great demand by hospitals - many of which provide
breastfeeding services in an effort to assist new mothers as they begin the nursing
process. The hospital grade version of the pillow is ideal for any health care
professional looking to help new mothers with breastfeeding during their stay
in the hospital post partum. The pillow cover is made of a white polyethylene
film and lightweight polypropylene spunbond, non-woven material. It can, therefore,
be surface cleaned with anti-bacterial wipes in between feedings and then simply
disposed of between patients. The pillow itself is also well-protected by this
waterproof cover and can be continuously re-used for months.
“My primary goal as a lactation consultant is to help new mothers with
their breastfeeding needs and to teach them techniques that will allow them to
relax and be comfortable with the process of nursing,” said Pat Bonasera,
lactation consultant and owner of Parenting and Breastfeeding Services at Good
Samaritan Hospital in San Jose, California. “Although we sell the Utterly Yours™ Breast Pillow in our Parenting and Breastfeeding store, I was anxiously
awaiting the hospital grade version since this will allow us to test different
sizes with mothers first-hand and reuse the pillow in between patients in a highly
sanitary fashion. With hundreds of births at Good Samaritan Hospital every month,
this will truly assist in giving us a practical breastfeeding aid to address
one of the most common challenges we see – larger breasted moms who are
frustrated with having to hold their breast in position to ensure their baby
latches on and stays latched on. It’s finally a better solution to the
rolled up towel!”
The Utterly Yours™ Breast Pillow is for any woman
who finds breastfeeding to be a frustrating endeavor due
to physically having to support her breast during feeding
in order for the baby to latch on successfully. In addition
to being tiresome and painful to the wrist – sometimes
even causing carpel tunnel - it also makes it difficult for
moms to focus on bonding with their baby and impossible to
do other simple tasks like answering the phone. This product
addresses this common, yet highly problematic issue by providing
the most comfortable and optimal breast position for nursing.
It is also conveniently sized so that moms can throw it in
their purse or diaper bag and use it on the go.
The Utterly Yours™ Breast Pillow is available in four
sizes and can be purchased via www.utterlyyours.com or
through retailers listed on the Web site. All inquiries for
bulk purchases of the hospital grade version should be directed

Utterly Yours™ was established in 2004, and was founded
by a mom to help women overcome common challenges they face
with motherhood. Its flagship product - The Utterly Yours™ Breast
Pillow - was designed for women who have to physically support
their breast while nursing to give moms a much simpler and
hands-free process in order to succeed with this endeavor.
