Feeding Friend

Breastfeeding can be so difficult and painful and doesn’t always come naturally. My next guest has gone through the horrendous pain of mastitis to create her own innovative solution to support her in her breastfeeding journey. She has developed this idea into a business that is helping mothers to breast or bottle feed their baby in comfort.
Amanda Rowe is a mum of three and the founder of the ‘Feeding Friend’. The ‘Feeding Friend’ is a feeding pillow that provides breastfeeding or bottle feeding arm support.
It is not a typical nursing pillow. Amanda’s mission is to help mums create a connection and bond by aiding them to hold their baby and take all of the pressure off the loading arm to help mum’s posture, self-care, comfort and letdown during feeding.
I am so grateful to hear and discuss Amanda’s journey and the challenges she went through while breastfeeding and the motherhood experience.
To celebrate my 50th podcast episode we are doing a giveaway! If you would like to go into the draw to win your very own Feeding Friend AND 3 months membership to FitNest Mama, click here! Hurry, entries close on the 7th of September at midnight!
