We often go so overboard collecting every possible item we think we might need or want for postpartum. Especially as a first time mom, I had no idea what I'd actually want/need.
Ill be honest, when it came down to it, I didn't use all that much of ...
First off, this is an amazing donut pillow while your nethers are healing!! But this allowed me to nurse nicely in a football hold, which worked really well for baby's latch!
Boppy Nursing Pillow, Gray Taupe Leaves
When the engorgement came along, this was perfect to relieve a little bit of pressure without using a full pump (which can push you into oversupply and potentially cause mastitis which I was greatly trying to avoid)!
