Dreamgenii Pregnancy Pillow FAQs

 

Why should I use a Pregnancy Pillow?

Many women suffer from a lack of sleep during pregnancy, right from the First Trimester. A recent study in the US even showed that a lack of sleep in early pregnancy can increase the risk of complications such as pre-eclampsia. Getting a good night’s sleep is an important part of the healthy development of you and your baby and using a pregnancy pillow can help you achieve this. The dreamgenii Pregnancy Support & Feeding Pillow can also help you to lie on your left hand side which is recommended by midwives as this maximises the blood flow exchange between you and your baby, as well as encouraging your baby to adopt the optimal birth position.

Why should I use a Breastfeeding Pillow?

Many women find that breastfeeding can be uncomfortable, putting strain on back, shoulders and tummy, which is particularly uncomfortable following a Caesarean section. The dreamgenii Breastfeeding Support Pillow, supports your back and elevates your baby to the correct position for breastfeeding, reducing strain on back, shoulders and tummy. Feeding can become a much more comfortable and enjoyable experience for both you and your baby.
