Which pregnancy pillow shape is best - U, J, I, or C?

Deciding what shape pregnancy pillow to buy can be overwhelming. The most popular pregnancy pillows come in U-Shape, J-Shape, C-Shape, or I-Shape. But with so many different designs to choose from, most moms-to-be really only care about two things: less discomfort, and more sleep.

The truth is that no two pregnant bodies are the same, and during those nine months, your needs are going to change – a lot. So why should you have to choose just one shape pregnancy pillow?

Part of what makes the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow so unique is that it you can bend it, twist it, and it shape it to your body to meet your specific needs. While most pregnancy pillows come in a static shape, the bbhugme adapts to you and your body’s changing needs.

Here are some of our customers' favorite ways to use the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow:

U-Shape: By threading the pillow between your legs and tucking it under your belly, you can get back and belly support at the same time.

J-Shape: If you want more back support, you can place the pillow behind you, down the full length of your back and then tuck it between your legs, supporting your knees at the same time.

C-Shape: When sitting up and resting, the bbhugme can be placed behind your back and under your arms to provide comfort and support. This is a great way to use the pillow even when you’re not pregnant, for reading, watching television, or just relaxing.

I-Shape: For full, 5-point pressure-relief, place the pillow in front of you and tuck it under your belly and then between your legs. You’ll get support in all the places you might need it: belly, back, hips, knees, and ankles. This position also aligns your spine, which can help prevent and relieve back and pelvic pain.

Invest in a versatile pregnancy pillow

When investing in a pregnancy pillow, make sure you get one that’s versatile enough to meet your changing needs. In addition to having shape versatility, the bbhugme also features adjustable firmness, meaning you can make the pillow as firm or soft as you need.

While many static-shaped, one-size-fits-all pillows will be useless as soon as your pregnancy is over, the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow can be kept and loved long after your baby arrives.

Every pillow comes with a reusable cotton storage and travel bag to keep your pillow fresh as it continues to live on as a source of comfort and support for the whole family.
