One of the beautiful side effects of pregnancy is the lack of sleep. The uncomfortable tossing and turning in attempt to find a reasonable position to sleep is enough to make one miserable.
While it’s near-to-impossible to resolve the situation entirely, you can at least get some relief with a pregnancy pillow.
Say Hello (!) to the Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow.
From the Utterly Yours website: The Utterly Yours™ Pregnancy Pillow will help women find the most comfortable resting position with its special revolutionary cubic design. When opened, it forms two triangles. Memory foam on one half of the pillow conforms to the mother’s belly. The other half of the pillow is made of higher density foam to support the back while keeping the body positioned to one side comfortably. The fabric that connects the two sides stretches to accommodate women as their bodies grow throughout their pregnancy.
First off, I have to say… the name cracks me up. I love it Also it was developed by a Mom, not a handful of guys that think they have a clue about women and pregnancy.
My first use of the Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow was a bit awkward as the baby in my belly wasn’t used to be propped up and I could feel her kicking up a storm in protest. The only other problem I found with the Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow is that when you roll back and forth from one side to another the pillows tend to get tangled and you have to actually get up out of bed to rearrange the triangles.
I designated mine strictly as a comfort pillow to use when laying down or for quick naps. But if you don’t move around a lot while sleeping, this is the perfect pillow for you.
The great thing about this pillow is the compact nature of it. It's not like one of those huge body pillows that takes up one half of your bed. It folds up into a nice cube for storage.
The Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow (they also have a breast pillow) comes in a handful of pretty patterns suited to fit any Mommy's taste. Plus it's made with eco-friendly foam so you don't have to worry about not going that whole green route everyone is talking about.
The Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow can be purchased online directly from their website or at select stores.
The wonderful people at Utterly Yours will be offering NYTM readers 25% off online orders when you use code: OBGYN at checkout.
