Feeling comfortable during pregnancy is essential for you and your baby. As your baby bump grows, rest may lower stress levels.
A pregnancy body pillow will contribute to giving you the support your body needs from the first trimester and beyond. Our pillow is optimal for sleeping, sitting, and lying down, and our body pillow covers are made with high quality, long-lasting materials. When investing in a pregnancy body pillow, it’s important to consider everything from quality to support to versatility.
Support
A pregnancy body pillow should provide support for your belly, lower back, pelvis, knees, and ankles so that you have 5-point support. As the stomach grows, the centre of gravity will change. It strains the joints and spine and can create pain. A pregnancy pillow that provides support for the abdomen, lower back, pelvis, knees and ankles may help reduce discomfort.
You don’t want a pregnancy pillow that’s too bulky bbhugme’s pregnancy body pillow moulds perfectly to your body. The shape gives sturdy yet flexible support for every body type.
Expertise
When shopping for a pregnancy body pillow, consider a brand’s knowledge and expertise about the pregnant body. bbhugme was created by three female Norwegian chiropractors specializing in prenatal and postnatal care. In their practice, they met with many sleep-deprived women suffering from pelvic and back pain before, during, and after pregnancy. Realizing that support and care for pregnant bodies were needed more than ever, the three set out to design the best pregnancy body pillow on the market today.
Versatility
A pregnancy body pillow should adapt to your changing body and provide support while sleeping —and even when you’re sitting and reclining during pregnancy or postpartum. bbhugme’s pregnancy pillow is designed so you can have a short rest on your stomach. By tying the ends together, you can form a doughnut shape and create a place for your growing baby bump that allows you to rest on your stomach without adding any pressure.
Look for a pregnancy body pillow with extra covers. You’ll want a replaceable cover on-hand when you toss the other in the wash. A cover should be soft and smooth, and bbhugme’s body pillow extra covers come in an assortment of colours. The covers are machine washable naturally, and the fabric is elastic yet strong enough to avoid being torn when used.
Our body pillow covers and inner pillow are OEKO-TEX® standard 100 class 1 certified, one of the world’s best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. OEKO-TEX® is a global, independent testing and certification system for textile products.
Quality
Your wellbeing is paramount, and sleep is a key ingredient in a pregnancy. A pregnancy body pillow should be comfortable and designed to last. Our pillow’s material is odour-free with natural antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, with a soft and breathable outer cover made with 95% cotton and 5% spandex. Best of all, bbhugme’s pregnancy body pillow and other products are designed for maximum comfort and support by experienced health professionals.

As a mom-to-be, we know that you already have a lot to think about, and when it comes to choosing a pregnancy pillow, all you really want is to get comfortable and finally get some sleep.
Why adjustability matters in a pregnancy pillow?
The problem with most pregnancy pillows is that they are filled with materials like foam or cotton stuffing, which provides static, one-size-fits-all support.
However, the truth is that no two bodies – and no two pregnancies – are alike. As your belly grows and your body changes, it can be hard to find a comfortable position for sleep and rest. Sleep challenges can change from month to month, and even from hour to hour. Pregnancy is unpredictable, and new aches, pains, and symptoms can pop up without much notice.
When you buy a pillow with only one level of static support, you might get frustrated when your needs suddenly change, and it no longer provides the comfort you need. This can lead to spending money on multiple pillows that take up space and can only be used for a short time.
One pregnancy pillow designed for all your changing needs
That’s why when the three founders of bbhugme, all chiropractors and moms, set out to design the ideal pregnancy pillow, they focused on making one with adjustable firmness.
Our pillow is filled with ultra-fine EPS microbeads, which mold to the curves of your body for the ultimate pressure-relieving comfort. The pillow features a soft jersey cotton cover, which is intentionally longer than the microbead-filled inner pillow.
The cover is secured in place with our BPA-free silicone Pebbles at each end. By sliding the Pebbles toward the center of the pillow, the inner pillow becomes firmer. By pulling the Pebbles out and loosening the inner pillow inside the cover, the pillow becomes softer.
We know how important sleep and comfort is to your health and well-being during all trimesters of your pregnancy. You deserve a pregnancy pillow that will meet your needs every step of the way.
