The "Original" Memory Foam Nursing and Bottle-Feeding Pillow
CozyCushy™, Inc. is the creator of the Patent-Pending "Original" Memory Foam Nursing and Bottle-Feeding Pillow.
A product so well designed that Breast and Bottle-Feeding has become a comfortable and pleasurable experience for baby and caregiver alike.
We have gone to great lengths to manufacturer a product, which meets the essential needs of a nursing mother or bottle-feeding caregiver, as well as, the baby.
The Patent-Pending Three-Layer Memory Foam Nursing & Bottle-feeding Pillow provides the ultimate in comfort and "gentle" support. The Memory Foam "gently and subtly" cradles the baby's body, which relieves pressure points and improves circulation while the infant is feeding. The temperature sensitive "Memory Foam" always returns to its original shape after each use. The extra "Three-Layer Memory Foam Multi-Purpose Pillow" works in this same way, providing extra back, elbow or incline support for the caregiver, while feeding the baby.
Memory foam pillows are naturally hypoallergenic. However, for "added" cleanliness, CozyCushy's™ Nursing & Bottle-Feeding Pillows also have a Patent-Pending "Sewn-on Inner Cover" which offers: easy cleaning of spills, as well as, provides excellent protection against mold, dust-mites, allergens and bacteria.
CozyCushy's™ convenient "two" side pockets allow for easy storing of small accessories, no matter which side of the pillow is being used.
CozyCushy™ has made many of its "Removable Outer Covers" in their "Copyrighted Custom Designed Fabrics." These Outer Covers also come in several "stock" fabric options. All "Removable Outer Covers are machine washable.
CozyCushy™ Nursing & Bottle-Feeding Pillow has a larger surface area in which to place the feeding baby, as well as, a larger interior cut out for the caregivers' waistline to fit comfortably. The sides (or arms) of the pillow provide added arm and/or elbow support to alleviate shoulder and neck strain while feeding the baby.
WHY MEMORY FOAM?
Stress-free and Pressure-free support is what makes memory foam so UNIQUE!
Conforming to your body's shape "slowly" and "reducing pressure points," we feel, are the two most important features we can share with you about memory foam.
This accounts for the way that memory foam actually reduces pressure points via its ability to change shape slowly and subtly conform to what lies on top.
Memory foam is temperature sensitive and because of this, the memory foam makes you feel as though you are "melting" into it as you sit or lie down on the product. What this means: at a lower temperature it is harder (or more viscous), and at a higher temperature it is softer and has more bounce (or more elastic).
These are the reasons CozyCushy™, Inc. chose to place two outer layers of the memory foam product on its Nursing & Bottle-Feeding Pillow: To "form a subtle cradle effect" under an infant and to assist in relieving "known" pressure points from the long feedings babies endure. An added benefit is the memory foam also aids in preventing "rolling" while the baby is positioned on top of the pillow.
All these features and reasons listed above are why CozyCushy's™ unique idea for the "ORIGINAL" Memory Foam Nursing & Bottle-Feeding Pillow is Patent-Pending!

At Leachco we make many innovative products, all designed to make both Mom and Baby happy, comfy, cozy, and safe. Moms like to tell us about their experiences with our products, and we'd like to share some of those comments with you. Here's a few of our favorites that speak for themselves…
Safer Bather - Infant Bath Pad
I absolutely love the Safer Bather. My daughter adores bath time and doesn't want to get out because of it.
We used the safer bather at a friend's house for our 5 month old boy and it was excellent. It allows us to use the bath easily without having to hold him all the time & also helps when bathing too. 12 out of 10 from 2 very happy families.
The Natural - Contoured Nursing Pillow
I've had The Natural nursing pillow since my first was born in 1998. Now I'm due with my third child, and no other nursing pillow will do--The Natural is the best! It was especially welcomed after my c-section.
We are expecting a new baby in several weeks and I can not imagine having the same wonderful successful nursing experience without the benefit of the Natural pillow. Natural is the perfect name!!
Snoogle® Original - Total Body Pillow
Love, Love, Love the Snoogle pillow. At 6 mos. pregnant for the 2nd time, wish I had it the first time since I never slept then and do now.
The Snoogle pillow is excellent. I used it from the first month of pregnancy. Whenever I have sore muscles from carrying the baby I sleep with the Snoogle and get great sleep.

Mark Solutions, which is one of the nation's leading lines
for both stretch mark prevention and fading existing stretch marks.
All natural Tummy Honey is hypoallergenic, includes anti-itch ingredients,
smells wonderful and includes no petroleum, lanolin, or artificial preservatives
(ie parabens, etc.). Many retailers who sell Tummy Honey also take
advantage of the optional OBGYN Marketing Program, which is the best way
to bring in new pregnant customers from the local area and, best of all,
Mother's Intuition, Inc. does all the work! Second, is the
brand new set of CD's called "Mommy and Daddy ROCK!"
Sold separately or as a gift set, these unique CD's are fresh new
music for the parents, including both a prenatal CD ("A
musical journey through pregnancy, What you never expected during pregnancy")
and a CD for after baby's born ("A musical journey through
baby's first year, What you never expected as new parents").
All songs were co-written and performed by Philip Bardowell, formerly
with the Beach Boys, and Jon Harb, a musician and performer for over 30
years. All songs are original compositions with a variety of current
styles from rock to blues, with fun and educational lyrics for new and
expecting parents. With songs such as "Hormonal Rage,"
"My Preggo Beauty Queen," and "Glowing" on the
Prenatal CD, and "Sex is my X," "Nightmare on
Diaper Street," and "Can't Get Enough Baby Stuff"

The

At Prenatal Cradle®, we are here to support you and your baby during the incredible experience of pregnancy. Carrying a baby in your womb is a miracle and feels wonderful.

This has been a miracle cure for me! I do not feel as bulky and clumsy
as I did before wearing it. It feels as though it is holding me together.
That may sound strange to someone who is not expecting but to someone
who has experienced what I am explaining it will make perfect sense. My
back is not aching, my tummy muscles are not feeling as though they are
stretching beyond capacity and my tummy feels lighter to carry.
Thank
you to Prenatal Cradle for producing a product to make pregnancy once
again an enjoyable experience. It makes it hard to be joyous when it hurts.

parents to be. It should be an essential part of the expecting mother's
wardrobe, as it will make all of the difference in the world.

The Loving Comfort® Family of Maternity Supports is a line of premium maternity supports, each designed for optimum comfort and support during and after pregnancy.
Loving
Comfort® Maternity Support provides comfort and support for women
during all stages of pregnancy and allows the expectant mother to function
more normally. The support provides immediate relief from pain in the
lower back, legs and abdominal region. Loving Comfort® Maternity Support
virtually eliminates back pain by transferring the weight of the abdomen
to the spine where it can be carried naturally. It lifts and supports
the abdomen, reducing pressure in the pelvic region, thus improving circulation
in the legs. Made of soft elastic, the material is ventilated for coolness
and comfort, making it ideal to wear under clothing. And because it doesn't
show under clothing, your Loving Comfort® Maternity Support will help
you look as good as you feel. Velcro® hook and loop closures accommodate
growth throughout the pregnancy. Available in white only.
Mother-To-Be®
Maternity Support is especially effective for women with pre-existing
back conditions, for multiple births, or for women with severe symptoms
that need maximum support and pain relief. Mother-To-Be® can be purchased
with a heat moldable insert for the absolute maximum support possible.
The moldable insert requires custom fitting and is available to medical
professionals only.
New
mothers get some additional support with the Loving Comfort® Postpartum
Support. Fabricated from a special elastic which is gentle on sensitive
skin, this support is lightweight and cool. The Loving Comfort® Postpartum
Support is perfect after any birth, especially Caesarian sections. It
provides extra support for weakened, stretched abdominal muscles. The
Loving Comfort® Postpartum Support can help a woman return to her
normal activities sooner. Available in three sizes based on pre-pregnancy
waist size: Small fits a 24"-30" waist; Medium fits a 32"-38"
waist; Large fits a 40"-46" waist.
Loving
Comfort® Breast Binder is designed for support while suppressing lactation.
For non-nursing mothers or for mothers who are weaning their children,
Loving Comfort® Breast Binder is a comfortable, effective method of
suppressing lactation. The soft, latex-free elastic of the Loving Comfort®
Breast Binder supports and soothes engorged breasts, hastening the drying
process. The lightweight binder is easy to wear and simple to adjust without
assistance. It fastens with Velcro™ and is worn comfortably tight.
