A maternity or pregnancy pillow can be used throughout the pregnancy and long after. A maternity pillow will support your back and bump as you attempt to get a good night’s sleep. Pregnancy pillows are available in various shapes and sizes – from wedges to U-shapes. This article will introduce you to the different types of cushions and give tips on using them correctly for maximum comfort.

Different Shapes of Pregnancy Pillows

J Shaped

The Ultimate “6 in 1” Pregnancy, Body and Nursing/Feeding Pillow is a J-shaped pillow designed for maximum comfort for you and your baby. A J-shaped pillow supports your back, bump, and knees while not intruding on your partner’s space. The long side of this pillow supports your knees, the top has an indented space for your head, and the back side has short support.

You can use this pillow to prevent rolling over by placing the longer side around your back. You can convert it into a nursing pillow by raising one side and wrapping the pillow arm before you when nursing or feeding. By placing it around your body, you can use this pillow for back support, rest while sitting.

U shaped

U-shaped pillows are popular among pregnant women due to their length and ability to follow the body’s natural curve. This pillow provides extra comfort during the night, stays in shape while not in use, and does not move around while you sleep.

The C-shaped pillow is most commonly used to support the back, with the curved part on the back and the opposite side near the belly. Additionally, its “U” shape makes it an excellent fit for multiple births and feedings. When nursing, simply raise one side of the pillow and wrap the pillow arms around your body. This way, it becomes a comfortable nursing/feeding pillow.

C shaped

C-shaped – side sleeping luxury body pillow provides exceptional comfort and support for your head, neck, shoulder and back. C-shaped pillows are the next best alternative for those who do not wish to have large and space-consuming pillows during pregnancy.

If you place it behind your back, you will benefit from the much-needed support it provides for your back. To reduce lower back pain, you can curl it between your legs/knees for pelvic/hip support. Furthermore, you can tuck it under the belly to support the baby bump. If you want to use it as a nursing pillow, place one end of the pillow behind your back for back support and wrap the other end around your belly.

Butterfly Shaped

The Butterfly Wing design of this maternity pillow ensures that you will sleep better and be more comfortable. This pillow facilitates side-sleeping during pregnancy, allowing ideal blood flow as doctors and specialists recommend. Moreover, it is portable and easy to carry wherever you go.

Whether you sleep on your left or right side, the Butterfly Pregnancy Pillow cradles your bump and supports your back. Its compact and flexible shape makes it easy to turn and reposition in bed.
