Someone that has not been pregnant will never understand the discomfort
it sometimes brings. Because the extra weight your body is carrying and
the disproportionate manner it is situated, areas of your back, hips,
legs, and feet often feel incredible pain and discomfort. However,
pregnancy pillows can be used to ease the pain and support the extra
weight. Pregnancy pillows can be used to sleep with or during the day to
provide extra comfort needed.
Basically, pregnancy pillows are specially designed to fit on certain
parts of your body and add support. There are several different types
made to fit on your lower back, between your knees or thighs, on your
neck, or on your stomach.
As you progress through the stages of pregnancy, it will be more and more
difficult to get comfortable. It will likely get to the point that you
have a hard time sleeping because every way you lay causes discomfort. As
your stomach gets bigger, sleeping on your back will make you feel as
though you can not breathe, and, of course, sleeping on your stomach does
not work. For these reasons, you will most likely end up on your side.
However, the extra weight makes your hips hurt and you are not able to
reposition very well. Luckily, pregnancy pillows provide relief!
The ideal position is lying on your side with a pregnancy pillow between
your knees/thighs and another behind your back. The pillow between your
legs offers support and relieves some of the pressure on your hips, while
the pillow behind your back allows you to lie back slightly when you want
to reposition. This gives you a range of motion and also gives your back
a break. This way, you have the option to lie at almost any angle on each
side, instead of being restricted.

2. Sitting for long periods of time also makes your joints ache when you are
pregnant. A pregnancy pillow behind the back will also help this, as well
as propping the feet up periodically. Some women feel relief from placing
a pillow in their laps to support the extra weight of their stomachs.
These techniques can also be used when driving to prevent stiffness and
discomfort.
There are many models of pregnancy pillows available. Some are made of
regular pillow materials, such as cotton or down, and other, more
expensive models, are made of memory foam. Take your time and try out the
different kinds to pick the most comfortable for you.
