For those of you not familiar with the Boppy, allow me to enlighten. A Boppy is a u-shaped pillow that is used to position a baby for nursing. Until recently, I had no idea how the human race flourished in the pre-Boppy millennia. How did the baby every find the nipple? Or stay there long enough to draw sustenance? The answer was soon revealed to me the first time I was required to 'nurse on the fly'. God, in His infinite wisdom, provides nursing mothers with Nature's Bobby. I am referring, no doubt, to the shelf of fat (or "fat flap" as we refer to it at our house) that stays on the belly long after delivery of a tiny human. Yes, it is a nuisance when attempting to shoe-horn yourself in to pre-pregnancy pants, but the damn thing is oh-so-useful when the need to prop a baby up to boob height arises (about every 2 hours or so).
Bonus: just like the Boppy I bought at Target, this one comes in a fetching pattern! It sort of looks like a nice pink zebra print.

Hey...I have one of those too!
Now mine is wrinkly where they sewed my skin back after my surgery...I think its hard to sew back all that fatty skin!
it's also good to give a cat something to knead. Oh, belly flap, is there anything you can't do?!
Ooohhhh I bet the sewed up belly sort of looks like the edge of a Hot Pocket...
