This pillow is great for breastfeeding comfortably, and in the correct posture. The sturdy cushion is snug, doesn’t lose its shape and takes baby’s weight with ease, in turn reducing tension in the mother’s back and providing optimum positioning. It’s also available in a range of beautiful prints. £34.99, amazon.co.uk
The Buddy has a soft, flat surface and ‘legs’ that mould around the mother’s body, making it particularly great for the later stages of pregnancy and breastfeeding. It’s also great for toddler support and as a comforter or conventional pillow for older children. I personally enjoyed using this as a support aid when feeding. £29.99, maguari.com
Suitable for use from 20 weeks, this pillow is quite literally a dream for the 96% of women whose sleep is affected during pregnancy. Supporting the back, bump and knees, the contouring allows you to find maximum comfort and the unique shape means it won’t take up the whole bed. From £47.99, dreamgenii.com
Primarily designed to aid feeding, this ingenious creation has a clever main pillow and two bolster cushions which, when attached, provide essential support to mothers juggling two babies. For antenatal care, the additional pillows also provide comfort for expanding tums. £89, thrupennybits.co.uk
This easily manipulated pillow effortlessly moulds to provide secure support to your expanding body and tender areas during pregnancy. Whether you want a restful night’s sleep, relief while at home in front of the TV or in the office, it helps take the strain. Likewise, it can can be used to support breastfeeding and beyond. £44.99, johnlewis.com
