What is a multifunction nursing pillow?

Multifunction nursing pillows wrap around your body while giving you the support you need to have the proper posture to feed your baby comfortably. Whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding, you want to keep your baby at a comfortable and safe height for both of you, so you can easily feed your baby and not strain your body. 

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier works interchangeably as a baby carrier and nursing pillow that can be used in multiple positions, including the feeding position! Since it's adjustable, it can be fastened at the proper height to feed your baby and protect your back, shoulders, and neck.

Mother should sit upright and not lean forward to feed their babies. Instead, bring your baby to your breast to reduce any potential back, shoulder, or neck pain and strain. To maintain your healthy posture, keep your shoulders relaxed. Using improper posture could negatively affect your overall health—Tushbaby keeps you and your baby safe and healthy. 

Why do you need a multifunction nursing pillow?

Baby nursing pillows that are multi-use are lifesavers for moms because they save time and space, making your busy mom life simpler. You need a multifunction nursing pillow so you’ll know your baby is safe and comfy during feedings. Choose a hassle-free multifunction nursing pillow that supports both you and your baby and makes your life easier.

Benefits of a multifunction nursing pillow for mom

If you are wondering if a multifunction nursing pillow is right for you, check out these reasons:

• Comfort: Tushbaby has a plush memory foam-lined seat for baby and built-in lumbar support for Mom to provide the most comfortable feeding experience. It’s adjustable to achieve the proper height for feeding your baby without strain while providing a safe and upright posture for you. Tushbaby has an adjustable velcro waistband and safety strap to ensure it fits around your waist snugly and securely, because achieving the right fit for your baby hip carrier is essential for maximum comfort and use. Keep your baby close to your body with your arms, back, and upper body supported and upright. A Waistband Extender is also available if you need a longer Tushbaby.
• Portability: Unlike some cumbersome nursing pillows, Tushbaby can easily be tucked away into your Totebaby or bag to transport. It's lightweight, small, and easy to fold up and store when not in use.
• Safety: Tushbaby has a secure, shelf-like seat with an anti-slip fabric patch that keeps you and your little one safe while nursing at home and on the go. The waistband also features a buckle with an additional safety lock. 
• Lightweight: Moms have enough to handle without lugging a heavy nursing pillow around. You need a handy, lightweight nursing pillow that is compact and hassle-free. Tushbaby weighs just  1 pound.
• Multi-functional: Multi-use baby gear is the best because it saves time and space, making your busy Mom life simpler and more efficient. Since it transitions from a baby carrier to a nursing pillow, the Tushbaby can seamlessly switch between the forward-facing, face-to-face, hip-carry, and feeding positions. If you’re bottle feeding, Tushbaby’s five storage pockets and the hideable bottle holder are handy helpers for storing breast milk and formula. There are even loops to attach a pacifier case like The Pod for a pacifier or baby’s toys, and additional space for your phone and wallet.
• Storage. With five handy storage pockets to store baby essentials and personal items, everything you need will be at your fingertips. The Tushbaby can also conveniently fold up for easy storage.
• Back support. Our built-in lumbar support in the waistband and streamlined design support your back, protecting your bones and muscles while nursing. For the best low-back support, strap your Tushbaby hip carrier high and tight above your waist. The strap around your waist helps to evenly distribute your baby’s weight across your body while feeding.
• Washable. Tushbaby is stain-resistant and easy to clean. Our polyester and velvet Tushbabies are machine-washable, while our vegan leather Tushbabies can be wiped down with a microfiber cloth or hand-washed with mild soap and water. Be sure to follow the care instructions in your user manual.

Benefits of a multifunction nursing pillow for baby

Your baby will have a relaxing and comfy space to lay on during feedings. Nursing pillows can help your baby with latching on because they will be in the best position and height to feed, and will stay there. With your baby propped up in the right position, colic and reflux is less likely.

How to use your Tushbaby as a nursing pillow

Wrap your Tushbaby high and tight around your waist and lay your baby across the soft padded seat, which puts your baby at the perfect nursing height so you won’t lean forward and strain your back or block your baby’s airways. 

What are the advantages of bringing a multifunction nursing pillow along when you travel? 

If you travel with your baby, you may be trying to figure out how to bring a nursing pillow along so your baby can easily feed.

But how do you pack a nursing pillow, especially with all the travel complications in today’s world? It's very likely you already have too much baby baggage for your trip. 

Since Tushbaby works as both a hip carrier and a nursing pillow, you can wear it when you board the plane, or it can easily fold up and go in your Totebaby bag or suitcase. When you’re babywearing and it's time to feed your baby, you can simply change your baby’s position to feed seamlessly. Because Tushbaby is lightweight and TSA-approved, you and your baby are instantly ready to go.
