WHY IT'S GREAT
An aid to help with breastfeeding positioning. The Buddy sits underneath your breast to lift both the breast and nipple into optimal feeding position. It relieves stress on the breast tissue and muscle, improves posture and frees-up a hand, and all together making feeding easier and less stressful. Lifting the breast and nipple like this is often recommended by lactation consultants and midwives for women with bigger busts who are struggling with the latch or feeding position. They used to recommend a rolled towel, but these can unravel, move out of shape, be too bulky or uncomfortable. The Buddy is purpose built to replace the rolled towel and be an always ready-to-go and optimally shaped assist at every feed.

Use your current bra cup size and unaided nipple elevation along with our sizing chart to help determine the best size Buddy for you.
Breast sizes and shapes can change during a single feeding session and they can also change significantly throughout your feeding journey.
There will be situations where you may be on the cusp of 2 different sized Buddy's.
You may find that having 2 different sizes will enable you to get the full support when you need it as you fluctuate or change in size.
Please note: cup sizes are based on AU standard sizing.
