How To Sew A NURSING/BREASTFEEDING PILLOW

In this episode, I'll be showing you how to cut and sew a nursing pillow using a Sew Quaint pattern.

Benefits of this pillow:
Say goodbye to back, neck and shoulder strain. This pillow can make breastfeeding comfy for you and your baby.
It supports your arms to prevent the pain that comes with holding your baby up for an extended period of time.
It promotes good posture. Since breastfeeding sometimes causes you to hunch over, it can create bad posture but this pillow holds your baby up to you so there’s no need to hunch over.
If you had a c-section, this pillow can keep the pressure off your incision site. Your baby will be supported without pressing against your belly.
It’s a cool chill spot for your baby. It’s so soft and gushy that your baby can lay or sit in it while you wear it around you.
It can help your baby to practice sitting up. It’s thick enough to support their back which is essential in sitting up. With regular pillows, your baby can fall over to the sides but with this pillow, your baby is cushioned on both sides.
You can be hands-free while your baby is still safely cradled by the pillow. You can eat, use your phone or computer, write, crochet, knit, etc. while your baby is comfy.
