The 8 Best Nursing Pillows, According to PEDs and Parents

Humble Bee Nurse Sling Nursing Pillow ($65)

Humble Bee's unconventional pillow design offers a different option for parents: A sling. It provides additional support courtesy of the strap (which is also padded because lactating parents also deserve a comfy pillow). The shoulder strap also allows for more arm mobility.

What reviewers say: "I purchased this thinking it was going to be excessive, and thankfully I was so wrong!! I can breastfeed sitting back, hands free!! Incredible. Its such a relief for my back and shoulder blades. Baby its on my lap and the sling brings baby right up to my breast perfectly since I can adjust the strap. Baby is comfortable and so is my shoulder. I just wish I had this from the start."

For other hands-free nursing options, consider baby carriers and slings.
