Side-sleeping stops being a nightly negotiation
As a bump grows, lying on your back gets uncomfortable and lying on your front stops being an option, so you end up on your side whether you like sleeping that way or not. On your side, the weight of the bump pulls your top hip and knee forward, which twists your lower back. That twist is what wakes people up.
A U-shaped pillow fills the two gaps that cause it at once: it supports the bump in front so it isn't hanging, and it gives your top knee somewhere to rest so your hips stay stacked. The tail behind your back stops you rolling flat in your sleep.
From the third trimester, sleeping on your side is what's generally advised in pregnancy. The evidence behind that advice is observational rather than from trials, but it's consistent, the advice is easy to follow, and there's no downside to it. A pillow that makes side-sleeping comfortable makes the advice much easier to actually keep.
- Bump supported, so it isn't dragging your torso forward
- Top knee raised, so your hips stay square and your back stays straight
- Back propped, so you don't roll flat without noticing
- One piece, so nothing migrates to the floor at 3am
The things cheap pillows get wrong
Not a new idea. Just the details that decide whether you keep using it.
- Filling that doesn't pancake: the common complaint about cheap full-body pillows is that they're plump for a fortnight and then flat. Ours is filled to hold its loft through the whole pregnancy and past it.
- A cover that actually comes off: a full-length zip, and a cover you can machine wash. Pregnancy is a sweaty business and this is a thing you sleep against every night.
- Breathable, not plastic-backed: a cotton-blend jersey cover, because most of the year here is warm and a sealed pillow becomes unbearable.
- Sized for a normal bed: big enough to work, not so big it evicts your partner. We'd rather you both still fit.

Three steps, and you're comfortable
- Lie on whichever side you prefer, with the curve of the U over your head and the two tails running down either side of you.
- Pull the front tail under your bump so it takes the weight, and bend your top knee over it.
- Let the back tail sit against your spine. It stops you rolling flat while you're asleep.
What this can't do
It's a pillow. It makes a comfortable sleeping position easier to hold. It doesn't treat back pain, pelvic girdle pain, restless legs or insomnia, and it isn't a medical device. If pain is keeping you awake most nights, or you have pain around your pelvis that makes walking hard, that's worth raising at your next appointment. Reduced movements from your baby always need a call the same day, whatever you're sleeping on.
