how long did you keep your boppy?

[dec756]

my son is 14 months and hasnt been messing with it for quite some time. do you guys still have yours?? is there another purpose for these things?

[brittone2]

I kept ours until my youngest was sitting well and not toppling over any more. I donated it a few months ago.

i still have a My Breast Friend pillow and DD2 hasn't nursed in almost 2 years. :bag

I kept it for DD2 and just stored it in DD1's nursery closet until we had DD2. Then, knowing that we're done, I actually sold mine for $10 on CL when she was around 15 months old.

A friend loaned one to us, we gave it back ~15 months.

I have mine, I just use it as a pillow - it's on the couch to be used as back support or taking a nap or some such :)

Ours went into storage once DD was a stable sitter (about 14 months.) It will come out again if/when we have a #2.

We stored our 2 boppies and my brest friend after we were done with them. 4 years later, they are out and ready now!

I kept it out until I no longer needed it to bf DS (he nursed until a little over 2) and then stuck it in a closet for several years for no good reason and then donated about a year ago.

DS is 21 mos and we still use it. He doesn't "need" it, but it's part of the bedtime routine.

I donated it when DD was 4-6 mos.

Seriously thinking about selling it. Ha will be 9 months next week. I still nurse her, but never use the Boppy now. I never really used it for propping/supporting, and she's beyond that too.

I have both my boppy and my brest friend pillow but they haven't been used since DS2 weaned a year plus ago. Probably haven't used the MBF since he was 5-6 months as I kept that one downstairs and the boppy upstairs. He nursed (mostly comfort nursing) at night and I used it so that I could doze while he was latched and not worry about holding him in place. Both are on the top shelf of the nursery waiting for DD this summer.

I put mine away (2 - one for upstairs and one for downstairs) when DD #2 finished nursing. After I'm done using them with baby #3 I'll leave them out for the kids to play with and will just get rid of them when the novelty has worn off. My oldest loved laying on them and playing with them when I was still nursing her sister, so I'm sure they'll happily do the same this time around.

I stuck it between the mattress and the wall...so she doesn't fall in the gap. It sits alongside the giant horse from Dave & Busters and the pink Dolphin ;)

Sprog's 15 months and still likes to lie on it on my lap right before bedtime. :) Just the routine, I guess. But it is comfortable to prop her up on it (her legs go under one side and she leans on the other, accross my lap.)

I think we'll keep it around a while. It looks like a good shape for a toddler to lounge on while sitting on her bed. Like an adult's reading pillow.

DS is 3 1/2 and it's part of our bedtime routine. He lies or sits on it while I rub his back and sing to him :) He also likes to use it to feed his "babies". I don't anticipate getting rid of it anytime soon.
