Why Pregnant Women Need a Body Pillow
Supports Changing Sleep Needs
As your belly grows, finding a comfortable sleep position becomes harder. Body pillows help by relieving pressure on the hips, back, and legs—especially when placed between the knees or along the side of the body.
Encourages Side Sleeping
Doctors recommend side sleeping during pregnancy, particularly on the left side, to promote healthy blood flow. A supportive body pillow helps maintain this position comfortably throughout the night.
Reduces Back and Hip Pain
SmartSilk’s Silk Lined support pillows cushion joints and reduce tension, helping pregnant women manage common discomforts like lower back pain, pelvic pressure, and leg cramps.
Hypoallergenic and Skin-Friendly
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can make your skin more sensitive. SmartSilk’s naturally hypoallergenic silk lining is breathable, moisture-wicking, and smooth to the touch—ideal for soothing sensitive skin.

How to Use a Body Pillow During Pregnancy
Between the Knees
Place a pillow between your knees while side sleeping to ease hip and lower back strain. This promotes spinal alignment and relieves pelvic pressure.
Under the Belly
Tuck a support pillow under your growing belly for extra lift and comfort, especially in the second and third trimesters.
Behind the Back
Prevent rolling onto your back while sleeping by placing a pillow behind you. This helps maintain safe side sleeping and reduces strain on your spine.
