My Feeding Friend: Not Just a Nursing Pillow Review

My Feeding Friend

The Ultimate Breastfeeding Plush Pillow

Recently, I had the chance to review this really adorable nursing pillow.

Seriously, isn't it cute?

At first it arrived stuffed in this package. Similar looking as to what you would find a comforter in. 

Poor Monkey.

The circumference of my pillow is an amazing 21 inches!

You can probably see my old nursing pillow in the background too. It looks so small in comparison to the My Feeding friend!

The monkey is my favorite. It even has a cute little tail! The My feeding friend plush pillow is not only a great nursing pillow, but it also serves as a good support for babies learning to sit up. Baby girl is almost able to sit up on her own. Currently, she is doing what my 4 year old calls the "guerilla". If you look at the photo you can see what she means. 

2 plus feet of snow - Blizzard 2013

Winter Storm Nemo

As of 9 am, there is a full parking ban in the city of Woonsocket RI. 

Did you get any snow? How much?

Snow isn't a new thing for us, yet our city was unprepared. We live in Woonsocket Rhode Island, and most of our Plows are out of commission. They are having issues with their equipment, and are looking for other plow contractors to come help dig us out. There are many private contractors in the city, but I'm unsure if they are going to help. Thankfully there were no mass power outages, and we braved the storm well. Our main streets have barely been plowed, which can be disastrous for people who need medical attention. Surrounding highways have traffic restrictions. 

From what I hear it is going to take several days for our streets to be cleared. 

This situation could have been prevented. The city should have had a back up plan, yet here we are. Hopefully nobody needs emergency medical attention. It isn't our first blizzard. Steps should be taken. 

Nonetheless, I am so thankful that we have power and heat. 

Any interested parties should contact: Woonsocket DPW at 401-767-8883

What popular notion do you think the world has wrong?

One of the biggest things that I believe most people have wrong is that they think they have to love everything about the person whom they are IN love with. 

This is a common misconception, and it destroys families. Not everyone in the world is going to agree with their partner. There is not one perfect person in the world. We are all created as individuals. We all make mistakes. I know that I have, and yet, that person still loves me for who I am. Flaws and all.

Fights happen. That is just how life goes. If you're mad, go in another room and relax. Too many people get divorced because they can't get past their partner's mistakes. Granted, I can understand that some people can't forgive certain misdeeds. 

I believe we live in a world where marriage and relationships do not mean the same as they once did. Hopefully my children will grow up to create a better world. I want them to change the world. 

Is it so hard to just be in love?
