Trying to nurse a single
baby with the "tummy to tummy" method that is recommended by
pediatricians, is hard enough. But two (or more) babies? A well
designed twin nursing pillow, allows you to do that.
Twin nursing pillows should be flexible enough for all shapes and
sizes of adults. These pillows can be used as a table for other
activities as well. If mom is bedridden during pregnancy, then these
can come in handy... when the moment of truth comes, the pillow is
ready for the precious little ones (both of them) arrival!
The thickness of the pillows gives many advantages including the
freedom to position and hold your babies. This is what makes the
bond of feeding so special.
For mom, it should provide excellent support for the back, neck and
arms. These pillows do that by supporting the weight of the baby...
some pillows even come with an additional back pillow to improve
back support for mom.
It should allow airflow, and have a removable cover for easy wash
and care.
These nursing pillows are good not only for moms, but for other
important care givers, such as grandma, grandpa, dad, or the baby
sitter. Most of these pillows support approximately 70 lbs.
Twin nursing pillows are great, and a must have for households with
twins, or even triplets! If you breastfeed, they are especially
important.
