A nursing or maternity cushion is a half-moon cushion which allows the future mother to breastfeed her baby more easily, but also to relieve her nights. Its shape perfectly fits mom's round belly. From a certain stage of pregnancy, when the belly begins to round out and weigh a little heavy, the nursing pillow helps relieve pain. If you suffer from sciatica, lower back pain or others, this cushion will be your best friend.
After childbirth, the nursing pillow helps to relieve young parents during baby meals . It can also be used as a deck chair for baby to take a nap, as its shape and texture are perfect for a short sleep.
