Why do pregnancy pillows have different shapes?
May 11, 2015
Because we mothers are different too. We also have different needs, depending on the discomfort created by pregnancy during sleep. Now to be fair, a pregnancy is not a discomfort for a loving mother, but a great joy. Any pain or discomfort is tolerated with love for the little one in the belly.
But a pillow for pregnant women is a great support for both mother and baby! Up to approximately 5 months of pregnancy, the pregnant woman can sleep on her back, as the pregnancy increases, this position is no longer recommended because it creates too much pressure on the inferior vena cava and the blood no longer circulates with pressure between the legs and the head and the child is no longer adequately oxygenated.
While she is pregnant, the mother's center of gravity changes as the belly grows and there is an overload of the back and leg muscles, causing back and leg pain, sometimes the pain spreads to the hips as well. That's why using such a pillow for pregnant women relieves back, leg or hip pain.
The ivory-shaped, C-shaped, B-shaped, U-shaped pregnant pillows, being large and firm pillows (siliconized fluff filling), help a lot to support the body completely and in a short time you will feel freed from all the pressure and pain. In addition, a large pregnancy pillow gives you the freedom to place it as you wish, to sit in the most comfortable positions and at the same time supports your head, legs, hips, belly and knees, etc.
