Nobody warns you how much of the newborn stage you spend in one chair, or what that does to your shoulders. I spent the first six weeks hunched over with a pillow stack that slid apart every time. Then I built an actual corner, and the difference was immediate and slightly embarrassing.
My Brest Friend Nursing Pillow, Deluxe
It buckles around you, so it does not slide down mid-feed and take your posture with it. The flat top is the part that matters: the baby stays level with you instead of you folding down to her.
My Brest Friend Adjustable Wooden Nursing Foot Stool
The most boring thing on this list and the one that fixed my lower back. Raising your knees a few inches changes the whole angle you sit at. I did not believe it either.
Lansinoh Lanolin Nipple Cream
The one everybody says, because it works and you do not have to wipe it off before feeding. Keep it in the corner, not the bathroom, or you will not use it.
Simple Modern 40 oz Trek Tumbler with Straw Lid
The thirst is real and it arrives the second you sit down and cannot move. Handle, straw, holds ice all day, and I can drink from it one-handed without looking.
Comfy Cubs Muslin Burp Cloths, Ten Pack
Six layers and actually large, which means one does the job instead of three. Ten of them means there is always a clean one within arm’s reach of the chair.
