which feeding pillow

[mich71]

just woundering if any one can recomend a feeding pillow for twins and does anyone know if you can take it to hospital with you

I used one called "My feeding Mate"- made by someone is Brisbane for $125- I can give you a number to call if you want. You can take them into hospital- but when I was in hospy they had their own - but they were plastic covered and a bit hard to use. Mum encouraged me to feed them seperatley until they got the hang of feeding- I found my pillow to be sooooooo good- cumbersome but makes the job much easier and quicker. I also had a blow up one- but it was very hard to use.

I had a look at the zoo pillow recently- and I don't think it would be much good for twins as it's a bit small.

the Australian Mulitple Birth Association in your area may have some details on the 'My feeding Mate"- I know it's advertised in my area's newsletter.

How are you going with your pregnancy? Are you feeling well?

glad that everything is going well. Just reading your post about doula's- try looking on the optimum birth site- http://www.optimumbirth.com.auyou could contact them and they could let you know if they have any trainee doulas in your area! If I was there I would do it for you!! Hope you find someone.

Let me know if you need the number for the feeding pillow

we're all good here- the twins are 2 in a couple of weeks- can't believe how quickly time goes by!

The number is 07 3392 2206 and the lady's name is Joanne Lynn- I'm not sure if it's her that makes them- but it has her name and number in my Muliple Birth Association brochure. You can probably hire them from your local MBA - that way you could try it to see if you like it or not!

I haven't seen the ones made by Milk Bar- might be worth a look as well.

Best of luck.

No problem,

just wanted to add that I had a look at the Milkbar ones online- I'm sure they're fine- but to me the picture looked like it would be a little too small for long term use- just my opinion.
