Nursing Pillows

[CaitAlain]

I'm planning to fly with an infant and am wondering if it's advisable to bring a nursing pillow and/or if it will be counted as a personal item.

The wording on this changed, there used to be an additional item for baby gear onboard but now the diaper bag seems to be counted as one of your two items. 

I’m not sure about a pillow, I think people bring their horseshoe shaped neck pillows without counting them but I’m not 100%.

Can you fit it inside the diaper bag while boarding? That would take care of it for sure.

Unfortunately no, it won't fit in the diaper bag.  It's like a neck pillow on steroids 😅  Super helpful to have, but VERY inconvenient to pack and bring anywhere, even when we're just driving.

I believe it would count as a personal item since it would need to be put away for takeoff and landing, is my understanding. Hope it works out.
