News and Reviews
Thrupenny Bits breastfeeding pillows were short-listed at the Mother and Baby 2010 Awards in the "Best product for Breastfeeding" category. These awards are cited as The Oscars of the Mother and baby world so to make it to the short-list is a very privileged place to be. Only 8 products were short-listed and we're proud to say that we were the only portable breastfeeding pillow converting to a bag (!) on the list. We like to think that that makes us the best at what we do in the UK.
May 2010 BBC1 Show High Street Dreams with Jo Malone - Selected from hundreds of applicants myself and my Thrupenny Bits made it down to the final 15 in the fashion category (why not the baby category you'd have to ask them!) Still it was a honour to meet Jo and get to the final.
