Thruppeny Bits

Have you ever wished you could lug your breastfeeding pillow out and about with you? Sat awkwardly as you try to hold your baby two inches higher than your lap, on a cafe chair that just wasn't made for nursing? Here's an option you'll certainly want to look at.

The Thruppeny Bit* is basically a bag that becomes a cushion when you choose to insert its removable filling. So, you can take it anywhere with you, sling it on the pushchair or over your shoulder. It comes in a selection of really appealing fabrics to rival any top-notch brand of nappy bag.

So, bingo - an instant feeding cushion when you need it, and when you no longer do, you still have an attractive bag for the ongoing daily needs of water bottles, wipes, spare socks, what have you...

My favourite fact about these cushions, however, is the provenance of their name. If you don't know why they should be called Thruppeny Bits, click through the link above to find out. Cheeky!
