Abstract

The invention, as described herein, is a combination maternity and feeding support pillow, which will relieve muscle stress and ligament strain on the expectant and / or nursing mother. Pregnancy places a great amount of strain on a woman's body; therefore, the support pillow is designed to mold into a variety of positions, making it particularly useful where the range of motion of the user is limited.Additionally, the moldable design will make the support pillow particularly useful for nursing and bottle feeding, as range of motion remains limited even after childbirth. This is especially applicable in the event of a cesarean section. The pillow can easily be adjusted with one hand and its flexible design supports all nursing positions, including tandem feeding.
