This nursing pillow from Brentwood Home is a great product. It does what the popular Boppy pillow does not do: hold its shape to support the baby. My guess is that a mom or two from Brentwood Home were underwhelmed with the Boppy pillow and set out to make a better version of it. They succeeded!

Findings
The Honeysuckle nursing pillow features a soft grey and white bubble design which is gender neutral and coordinates with their changing pad as well. I love that it’s an easy way to tie your baby items together! The pillow is made of a wonderfully soft cotton & like all Brentwood Home products, it is manufactured right here in the U.S.A. The cotton cover also can zip on and off easily for washing when needed, since babies are a messy business!
Another use of this pillow is to prop up infants. They can work on tummy time and building neck strength using the pillow as a bolster, or they can just be propped up in it and take in the sights around them!
I shared this nursing pillow with a friend who also tried this out for nursing and she said that she really liked it as well. She also mentioned that its competitor gets smooshed down so easily that it wasn’t a good support for nursing. This pillow holds the baby’s weight better and allows for easier nursing without using mom’s arm strength very much at all.
Conclusion
The $50 price tag is a very fair one, considering the quality of the item, and that it will definitely hold up through multiple babies. It is worth the investment! Note: the nursing pillow sells on Brentwood Home’s website for $50, but on Amazon for $67.44 and free shipping. As always Brentwood home makes all their products including this nursing pillow in their own factory in Los Angeles.
This nursing pillow would make a great gift for a first time mom or an experienced mom since it is far superior to its competition and looks great!
