Dianne King (mother of two) designer, explains her pillow:
"When I breast and bottle-fed my first baby, Roslyn, I found it extremely difficult to relax my body while supporting her weight for
any length of time. Also maintaining the correct elevation added to the strain."
"I felt that was probably the same reason why so many other mothers became fatigued in those early months with their new babies.
"For this reason I designed my pillow to alleviate the tension normally associated with feeding."
"After using my pillow with new daughter Michelle, I've found feeding a much more enjoyable and relaxing experience. I think you will
enjoy it too."

Dianne King's 'Easyfeed' Pillow is designed to relieve back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain and alleviate lower back problems of mothers while breastfeeding or bottle feeding their baby.
Breastfeeding pillow helps position the baby properly while breastfeeding.
Angled design elevates baby's head, allowing the air that baby takes in with milk to rise to the top of the stomach for easier burping.
The pillow is designed to be used either solely in its white water-proof cover, or with an overslip.
The following styles and coloured overslips are usually available:
