Breastfeeding a newborn is all about learning a new skill.
Getting the right position and keeping bub comfortable and supported during feeding is often easier with a nursing pillow.
Generally speaking, your baby will be feeding eight to 10 times (or even up to 12 times) every 24 hours in the first few weeks until your milk supply is well established.
As you’ll be feeding frequently, a supportive pillow can help save your back and your arms and ensure both you and bub are comfortable.
Here, the Bounty Editors reveal their favourite nursing pillows.
