I Used The Boppy For Myself Postpartum!

I included my Boppy in my "to take to hospital list" in order to aid in breastfeeding and just to hold our sweet baby girl in general.


Joe & I went down to the NICU every 3 hours for Nicolina's feedings while I was still in the hospital recovering. We let the nurses cover a night feeding though, so we could get a few hours rest overnight. We were supplementing Nicolina anyways as my milk hadn't come in yet.


I had a second degree tear so getting up and down was terrible, especially getting onto a wheelchair, which was every trip down to the NICU.


I was lugging down my Boppy every trip to use to nurse her or to hold her (the chairs in the NICU were not very comfortable, so this helped add some comfort), & it wasn't until one trip Joe suggested I just sit on the Boppy. OMG this was amazing! This took all the pressure off of my healing battle wounds! A Serious game changer!


I lugged that thing the entire week postpartum! Back & forth to the trips to the hospital to see Nicolina each day, down to the Jimmy Johns around the corner from the hospital for a lunch break. Without it it took me forever to get up and down from the sitting position! This was my lifeline! 100% recommend if you have some tearing!
