Introduction

Welcome to the Comia Smartpillow, designed to enhance your breastfeeding journey. This guide provides comprehensive information on setting up, using, and caring for your Comia Smartpillow, ensuring a supportive and informed experience for both parent and baby.

Overview

The Comia Smartpillow offers innovative features to assist with breastfeeding. It includes integrated timers for tracking feeding sessions per side and weighing sensors to measure milk intake accurately. Key components include the Comia Pillow with Inner Cover, Upper and Lower Covers, and a Charging Cable.

Keys to Comia Success

Use the pillow surface as support until milk comes in (2-5 days post-birth).
Prefer weighted feeds for 'full feeds' after baby has not eaten for 1.5+ hours.
Measure milk intake weekly unless advised otherwise by a professional.

Getting Started

To begin using your Comia Smartpillow:

Download and set up the Comia App (available on the App Store).
Sign up for a Comia account to access the full experience.
Prewash the removable upper and lower covers using a gentle cycle with cold water.
Air dry the covers completely before reassembling.
Charge the Comia using the provided USB-C cord. Access the charging port by un-velcroing and unzipping the top cover.

Using Comia

Standard Feeding (Non-weighted)

Strap the pillow around your waist, place your baby on it, and turn on the pillow. Press the 'L' or 'R' button to start/pause the timer for the corresponding side. The pillow tracks cumulative time per side and remembers session data.

Weighted Feeding (To Assess Milk Intake)

Place the pillow on a flat surface. Ensure nothing is on the pillow and press the designated button to enter weighing mode. Once the display shows zero, place your baby on the pillow. Ensure only the baby is on the pillow for accurate readings. Save the initial weight. After feeding, re-tare the scale if needed and place the baby back on the pillow to measure intake. Ensure the baby wears the same clothing/diaper for consistent measurements.

Cleaning & Storage

Cleaning

The removable covers are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Air dry only. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.

Storage

Store the pillow in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid compression and keep away from pets and children. Do not fold for extended periods.

Assembly/Disassembly

Unzip and un-velcro the cover to remove it for washing. Reassemble by velcroing the mesh around the display and zipping the cover back on.
