pregnancy cushion

when in UK, I borrowed an American brand - "boppy cushion" - cresent shaped cushion for breastfeeding and then when baby started to sit up, it was perfect for him to sit within. It also had a detachable arch which allowed me to hang toys etc above it.

Does anyone know where I can get one of these or even cushions which can be used for breastfeeding and which will help me to sleep more comfortably.

I havent a clue where to begin. Did look in Bumps2Babes very briefly but maybe I was asking for the wrong thing.

thanks for all your help in advance!

I got a Big Flopsy too from Eugene Club in Central, next to H&M. It is a little pricey but it's fantastic to use either as a pillow when reading or for sleeping with. Even my husband loves it!

I don't think you can find an exact Boppy here in HK, I asked my mom to bring it back for me when I gave birth to my second one. I also have my Breast Friend nursing pillow, it's also very nice too. but not suitable for sleeping support.

By the way, I have a baby blue "Big Flopsy" for sale. If you're interested, contact me through PM.

thanks for all the info - I have pmed the two ladies who have Big Flopsies for sale. My hubby goes to New York on business next week so was going to see if I can get a boppy with the toy attachments sent to his hotel. Can someone in the know tell me the best place in terms of price and reliability to buy a boppy??

I have a boppy that I didn't use much since my daughter refused to nurse (I had to pump) and she didn't take to the boppy much. I'd be willing to sell it to you. Call me if you're interested (9747-9542)
