The BreastFriend made it easier to get the correct positioning for nursing.

I like the Boppy for tummy time and for propping the baby up for interaction, not for nursing.

I used a regular pillow. The boppy in our house became known as "The Boppy Chair" because we would put a blanket in it and the babies would sit in it like it was a big recliner. It was also good when they started to push up on their arms. My kids still like to play with it now, but I never used it to nurse.
