Product Description
Breastfeeding is one of the most important gifts you can give your Baby. Proper positioning is a key to successful Breastfeeding. Good latch-on can be achieved by having your baby somewhat elevated. But this is not always easy - many women experience stress & pain in their back & shoulders due to improper posture. A good Breastfeeding or Nursing Pillow provides back support so Mom does not hunch forward. Lactation Consultants also recommend a pillow that straps securely to Mom so that the pillow is not constantly shifting. Not all women are built the same so having a pillow that provides a custom fit is ideal. Easy on-off buckles, Easy to clean covers and Compact Size that fits in a diaper bag also help to foster ease of use & more successful Breastfeeding.

 not as comfortable as others May 30, 2008

I have used the boppy and my brest friend pillows, saw the viva and thought it would be great. I found it not as comfortable as my brest friend and harder to use because of the straps. The back pillow was not easy to get the right amount of air to be comfortable. It's an okay product but I prefer the my brest friend pillow.
 Great for travel! October 22, 2007
Chicago Mom (Chicago, IL)
I bought this for a vacation where we were flying and could not take our regular boppy due to space constraints and LOVED it. It inflates (and deflates) very easily, like a pool toy - there is a pump provided, but its not necessary - and can be as firm as you like. I was able to use it on the airplane and all during the vacation, which was a treat instead of having to prop up my baby on miscellaneous pillows. Also, we found a GREAT unintended use for the easily detachable back pillow. Our 6 month old is a bit small and young to sit in those wooden restaurant high chairs without support and the back pillow was the absolutely perfect size to put behind the baby so that he could sit upright in the chair.
A Must Have!! July 27, 2007

This is the best nursing pillow I have used! Better than the Boppy. This is definately a must have for all nursing mothers.
