FAQ

Why is the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow so firm?

The Natural Curve Nursing Pillow is so firm so that it will firmly support baby in a position that lifts him up to your breast so that you do not have to slouch down to achieve a proper latch. This helps contribute to your comfort throughout each nursing session. The firmness of the pillow also makes it so that the pillow does not loose its shape and have to be "fluffed" to provide the breastfeeding support you need.

Why is the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow curved the way it is?

The unique curve of the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow was designed to keep baby's head elevated above their tummy, which may aid digestion, while cradling baby in to you, tummy-to-tummy, for that ideal position. You also get the added benefit of getting to have direct eye contact while feeding baby.

Can I do the football hold with the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow?

The Natural Curve Nursing Pillow is able to support nursing mothers in various positions including football hold. Please refer to the Positioning section for how to achieve this, and other holds using the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow.

What other positions does the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow support?

The Natural Curve Nursing Pillow is able to support nursing mothers in various positions and babies at various ages. Please refer to the Positioning section for how to achieve a comfortable position using the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow.

What is the "Cradle Hold" and can I use Natural Curve Nursing Pillow for this position?

In cradle hold the mother supports the baby's head in the crook of her arm. A nursing pillow can be a useful tool in this position to help support your arm and baby to reduce fatigue and neck/shoulder pain. Refer to the Positions Section for more tips and information regarding this position.

What is the "Cross-Cradle Hold" and can I use Natural Curve Nursing Pillow for this position?

Cross-Cradle hold is similar to the cradle hold, except that the mother supports the baby's head with the opposite hand. A nursing pillow can be a useful tool in this position to help support your arm and baby to reduce fatigue and neck/shoulder pain. Refer to the Positions Section for more tips and information regarding this position.

What is the "Football Hold" and can I use Natural Curve Nursing Pillow for this position?

Baby lays beside you, with legs and feet tucked under your arm, hips are flexed and his legs resting towards your back or gently tucked behind your back, if your baby is longer. Baby is facing you, with his mouth at nipple height. A nursing pillow can be a useful tool to help elevate baby to reach your nipple. Refer to the Positions section for more tips and information regarding this position.

I am having trouble using the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow in my armed rocking chair, was this intentional?

Due to the firm supportive nature of the Natural Curve pillow, and Ergobaby's goal of providing moms with comfortable breastfeeding support, the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow does not fit well in armed rocking chairs. The pillow was designed with enough surface area to fully support baby, and the opening wide enough to accommodate moms of varied sizes.

Is the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow safe to sleep on?

No. Never allow baby to sleep on the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow.

How do I clean my Natural Curve Nursing Pillow?

The cover can be machine washed, cold. Do not bleach. Tumble dry low. Do not iron. Do not dry clean. To clean the pillow, wipe clean with water if needed, flat dry.

What should I do if a large amount of liquid gets on the pillow, and into the foam, through the protective skin?

Scrub affected area with warm water and mild detergent if desired. Allow to dry for 24 hours

What is the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow made of?

The Natural Curve nursing pillow is made of a high density poly-urethane foam providing lasting support for nursing mothers and babies.

What is the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow Cover made of?

The Plush/Pile side of the cover is 100% polyester, the Poplin side of the pillow is 100% cotton

Can I use the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow to prop my baby up?

Though you could use the pillow to prop baby up, the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow was designed specifically for ergonomic positioning while breastfeeding and may not function ideally as an infant support pillow.

Can I use the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow as a back support for myself?

Though you could use the pillow as a back support or a pillow in any other position, the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow was designed specifically for ergonomic positioning while breastfeeding and may not function ideally as a support pillow.

Are replacement covers available for the Natural Curve Nursing Pillow?

Yes. It's nice to have an extra cover for when one is in the wash or to alternate between looks. Covers are available in two stylish, sophisticated options; a neutral Brown and a cool and calm Grey and Yellow Swirl.

Helped baby with sitting up

A little too firm for nursing but it did help as a spotter for when my baby was learning how to sit on his own.

not much use
June 17, 2019
I liked the flat side for the first month of the baby's life, but after that we pretty much outgrown it and just used pillows and then nothing at all. It also too wide for my rocking chair, so I was not able to use it there, only on the bed. I tried using it for tummy time, but baby didn't like it.
Misses some belt to fix it around the waist, constantly sliding away.
Pros
  • Nice fabric,
  • flat side up is good one
Cons
  • not much use

A little to firm
July 21, 2018
I like Ergo products, but this one did not work out like I had planned. I have nursed two kids for a year each. I am plus size and could never get this pillow to work great for me--not flexible. I also had a really small baby and when I was sitting in my nursery chair it could just not work together. I did use some on the cough, but overall had another pillow I preferred.
Pros
  • It is as advertised, grey, very firm and curved toward the body. Albee offers the best price and quick delivery.
Cons
  • Personally, it did not work well for me being plus size (size 18) and with my small baby (5 lbs.). It also did not work in my nursery chair (pottery barn medium rocker for reference).

I'm really excited about this product!

The support compared to a Boppy is great! I'm looking for this pillow to be able to maintain its shape better than a Boppy also.
