Nursing Pillow
A nursing pillow, also known as a breastfeeding pillow, is a support cushion designed to aid in comfortable and effective breastfeeding or bottle-feeding.
Material
Nursing pillows are typically constructed with the following materials:
- Cover: Commonly made of cotton, flannel, or polyester blends for softness and washability. Some covers feature waterproof linings for easier cleaning. Removable, machine-washable covers are standard.
- Fill:
- Polyester Fiberfill: A common, affordable option. It is lightweight and easy to care for, but can compress over time.
- Microbeads: Provide firm, consistent support and conform well to the body. However, some concerns exist regarding potential leakage or ingestion of microbeads.
- Memory Foam: Offers excellent support and retains its shape well. It is more expensive but provides long-lasting comfort.
- Buckwheat Hulls: A natural fill that conforms to the body and provides firm support. It can be adjusted for optimal comfort.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a nursing pillow is to:
- Reduce Strain: Elevates the baby to breast height, minimizing bending and stooping by the mother, which reduces strain on the back, neck, arms, and shoulders.
- Improve Latch: Positions the baby correctly for a deeper, more comfortable latch, reducing nipple soreness and improving milk transfer.
- Support Multiple Positions: Facilitates various breastfeeding positions, such as the cradle hold, cross-cradle hold, and football hold.
- Bottle-Feeding Support: Can also be used to support the baby during bottle-feeding.
Function
Nursing pillows function by:
- Providing a Stable Base: Creating a firm, supportive surface for the baby.
- Contouring to the Body: Many pillows are designed to wrap around the mother's body, providing a secure and comfortable fit.
- Maintaining Baby's Position: Helps to keep the baby properly aligned during feeding, preventing slipping and ensuring optimal latch.
Usage Scenarios
- Breastfeeding: Most commonly used during breastfeeding sessions.
- Bottle-Feeding: Suitable for supporting the baby during bottle-feeding.
- Post-Cesarean Section: Provides support and comfort for mothers recovering from a C-section, minimizing pressure on the abdomen.
- Tummy Time: Some pillows can be used to support the baby during tummy time, promoting head and neck development.
- Propping Up Baby: Can be used to prop up the baby for supervised rest or play.
Common Types
- Crescent-Shaped Pillows: The most common type, wrapping around the mother's body.
- Wrap-Around Pillows: Longer pillows that provide more extensive support.
- Boppy Pillows: A well-known brand, often used as a general term for crescent-shaped nursing pillows.
- Positioning Pillows: Designed with specific shapes to support different breastfeeding positions.
- Travel Pillows: Smaller, portable pillows for use on the go.
- Inflatable Pillows: Lightweight and easy to transport, ideal for travel.
Nursing pillows fall under several potential classifications based on their material and specific features. Here's a breakdown of relevant HS codes:
- 6304191000: This code covers “Other furnishing articles, excluding those of heading 9404: Bedspreads: Other: Of cotton: Other”.

- 6307908945: This code covers “Other made up articles, including dress patterns: Other: Surgical towels; cotton towels of pile or tufted construction; pillow shells, of cotton; shells for quilts, eiderdowns, comforters and similar articles of cotton Pillow shells, of cotton (369)”.

Important Considerations:
The classification of a nursing pillow depends heavily on its construction and materials. If the pillow is stuffed with foam, HS code 9404902030 is likely the most appropriate. If it's stuffed with another material, HS code 9404902060 should be considered. If it is a pillow shell made of cotton, HS codes 6307908940 or 6307908945 may be applicable.
