Q. Why is a pregnancy pillow pregnant mama’s best friend?
A. Because it’s got your back (literally), plus so much more…
Let's talk about the comfort of pregnant women. The significant changes that pregnancy brings can lead to discomfort, such as backaches and hip pain. Finding a comfortable sleeping position becomes challenging as the baby bump grows. Regular pillows do not provide sufficient support and cushioning, which is where a pregnancy pillow comes to the rescue. It keeps the spine aligned, reduces pressure on the joints, and eases aches and pains, ensuring a restful night's sleep. However, with so many different shapes, sizes, and filling options available, it can be confusing to know where to start.

The Dreamgenii Pregnancy, Support & Feeding Pillow is an award-winning and patented product that is highly popular among pregnant women from 20 weeks gestation. Unlike many other pregnancy pillows, the Dreamgenii is designed to perfectly fit your body without taking up much space in your bed. It features a soft bump cushion for vital care when sleeping on your left side, a back cushion to support and prevent rolling onto your back, and a unique leg support that comfortably elevates your upper leg to reduce pressure on your knees, back and bump.
Using the Dreamgenii pillow can also help you achieve optimal foetal positioning by allowing you to sleep on your left side. This maximises blood flow between you and your baby while you sleep. It is also super easy to switch between positions, allowing you to sleep on both sides if you need to.

If you are experiencing Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP), the Dreamgenii pillow can help you get into a comfortable position by enabling you to turn easily. In fact, health professionals often recommend using a product like the Dreamgenii to help ease PGP. This specialized pillow has been used by hundreds of thousands of women worldwide and is the only patented pregnancy pillow recommended by UK midwives.
Once your baby has arrived, the Dreamgenii pillow can also be used as a cosy feeding pillow for added comfort during breast or bottle-feeding.
Available with super soft, 100% jersey cotton covers in three contemporary colourways (Grey Marl, Beige Marl, and White), the Dreamgenii pillow helps boost blood circulation, encourages left lateral sleeping, helps with PGP, promotes well-being, comfort, and relaxation, provides much-needed support for your bump when sleeping, and helps you get a comfortable and restful night's sleep.
Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) can affect up to 1 in 5 pregnant women and can occur at any stage during or following pregnancy. It is a pelvic joint problem that can cause pain and stiffness in the pelvis, particularly the midline joint that connects the left and right pubic bones. This can result in difficulty walking, climbing stairs, and sleeping.
The Dreamgenii Pregnancy pillow retails from £49.99.
If you’re trying to conceive (TTC), you probably know that there are certain foods and nutrients that become especially important once you’re pregnant. But nutrition plays a vital role even when trying to conceive, much like laying a strong foundation before constructing a house.
Certain nutrients create that foundation by supporting egg and sperm health (yes, nutrition matters for both partners), hormone balance and creating a hospitable environment for a fertilized egg to implant. In fact, studies show that certain nutrients can help increase fertility and improve success rates for both natural conception and fertility treatments.
In other words, nutrition is a key player in the TTC journey, but getting the right nutrients in the right quantities can be tricky. That’s where supplements come in. Just as you’d take a multivitamin to fill in nutritional gaps for optimal health, fertility supplements can give you that extra nutrient boost.
