Editorial Review

This is baby's very first pillow--the one Mom needs in the third trimester, when "the bulge" has already taken up half the bed. It's a simple 12-by-11-inch wedge of foam, 4 inches thick at one end and tapering to nothing at the other. It has a medium blue cotton cover with a Velcro closure that makes it easy to remove for washing. The idea that it would make much of a nursing pillow is a little farfetched, though--not big enough and the wrong shape. --Richard Farr

Dex Products Pregnancy Pillow

Whether you’re sleeping in bed or just resting on the couch, the pregnancy pillow gently cradles your tummy providing comfort and support throughout your pregnancy. Nightly use of the pregnancy pillow can help you sleep in the position known to be best for both you and baby. Sleeping on your side with plenty of support allows maximum flow of oxygen and nutrients to the placenta and can help minimize painful swelling of ankles, hands, and feet

5.0 out of 5 stars Dreaming of Baby, December 10, 2003

As a mom and a Doula I can not recommend this product enough!!!! First as a mom who birthed babies over 10 pounds, the last trimester was miserable until I found this product which allowed me to get some much need sleep, in at least some comfort.

As a doula I recommend all my clients get one to well into their second trimester, to be prepared early.

Once the baby is born I found it was extrememly helpful, when my babies had colds and needed to be slightly elevated. It fit nicely in their cradle.

Highly recommend

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect belly support with room in the bed!, March 14, 2005

This review is from: DEX Products Pregnancy Pillow PP-01 (Baby Product)

I started using this pillow around the 4-5th month of pregnancy because my back would hurt as my stomach hung over while I slept on my side. This gave the support that allowed my stomach to not pull down on my back, which made me very comfortable. I continued to use it through out my pregnancy and it really helped. What was wonderful about it is that it gave support, but it still left room for my husband in bed! The only thing that kept it from being 5 stars is that by the 9th month, the narrow end of the pillow began to flatten and slightly curl, but not enough to make it uncomfortable if I remembered to flip it over each night.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sleepless in Florida... No more, March 8, 2003

I just have to comment on this wonderful pillow! I am 6.5 months pg with our first child and couldn't find anything to help me sleep... Until I purchsed this pillow.
Before I bought it I checked the review on it and like the other poster said, when I first saw it I was a bit skeptical because of it's small size. However, I went ahead and tried it out and it is great! I could even easily roll over to the other side and move the pillow with me without waking up my husband. You can move it in and out to have as little or as much support that you need for your growing belly.

If you are considering buying this I would definately recommend at least trying it!
