Professional MediPro Breastfeeding Pillow
"MediPro wipe-clean pillow's cover is made from a European engineered, professional grade medical fabric. The top layer is made of a surface treated soft and safe polyurethane, which gives the pillow a soft and warm, almost velvety feeling."
MediPro's cover is easy to clean.

Washing: The cover can be laundered in a process-validated washing machine at 70C°. Pillow cover can also be autoclaved at 130C°. Spin and tumble dry at not more than 130C°.The inflatable under pillow can be wiped with disinfectant or cleaned with detergent. See complete care instructions as a PDF-file.
...I love your product-breast feeding pillow for many different reason. It is soft and inflatable which makes it asy to store it. I love the back pillow because it protects mom's back and makes it more comfortable to breast feed. I also like material. It appears easy to clean. ... Nena

"I really like the viva pillow with twins because it allows moms to adjust the height of the pillow to the babies size. and with two babies, who are often small at the beginning, this becomes even more important" Fredaibclc@aol.com
"Breastfeeding may be a trying experience at first. The physical stress of breastfeeding can cause tremendous biomechanical strain. During the course of pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes many biochemical and structural changes which can create postural strain, neck and back pain. As a result, posture may become an issue when a mother begins to breastfeed." Read full review.
Pillow supports both your arms as well as your back.
“The 'VIVA! Breastfeeding Pillow' helps to support nursing moms. The pillow supports both your arms as well as your back. The outercovering could be removed and machine washed which is wonderful.” - Reviewer #2/ iParenting Media Awards
Better than Foam of Fiber!
"I was suprised! The inflatable pillow is better than foam filled pillows for protecting C-section tummy. It keeps in shape better than fiber filled pillow which tends to roll away! It's light & fits well against my waist without slipping. It was also easy to fill with the accompanying pump. I can roll it up & take it in my diaper bag as well. The fabric cover is soft and comfortable for my baby and the under pillow is sooo easy to wipe clean!" -Customer
Supportive Back Pillow
"I have recently bought your product and absolutley love it!!! I have used a boppy which was totally useless and a Luvee which was better than the boppy but was nothing like the VIVA! I love that it is portable and can go anywhere. But the feature I really love is the back pillow....it is sooo supportive and you can adjust it to fit your needs. I also love how easy it is to hook together ..... you only need one hand which is wonderful. I Thanks for a truly wonderful product!!!! I don't know where I would be without it!!!" Customer
Great for bigger than average
"I'm really thankful that you thought of extensions for those of us who are bigger than average : )" Customer
I LOVE IT!
"I just got my VIVA INFLATABLE NURSING PILLOW. I LOVE it! The back support works very well. I did alot of research trying to find a good nursing pillow. I had the Boppy for my son and it wasn't very comfortable and he kept leaning towards me too much so it was awkward to nurse him with it plus I had to bend over him to feed him. This has not been the case with my VIVA. I am very happy with your product." Customer

Strap holds the front pillow firmly in place so there is no gap between mother & baby. Mom does not need to constantly re-arrange her pillow & baby back in place. This alleviates excessively hunching down over baby & straining Mom's back & shoulders.

Snap-Hook can be released quietly with one hand keeping baby asleep. Flexible strap makes pillow easy to safely remove while seated.
