5 Best Pregnancy Pillows Helping You And Baby Get Some Sleep

For Sleep & Comfort Throughout Your Pregnancy

Counting sheep, or counting kicks to the bladder? Anyone who’s been pregnant knows the difficulty of getting that much-needed sleep during those crucial months. From the increased movement (it’s practically science that fetuses love midnight karate) to the diminishing real estate (oof!), it’s almost impossible to get comfy enough for a full eight hours by the third trimester.

While they aren’t a silver bullet, pregnancy pillows can offer significant support to a pregnant body. Since side-sleeping is an ideal position for optimal circulation, getting that extra support for your neck, hip alignment, and growing belly is essential. We’ve rounded up the best natural and sustainable pregnancy pillows to give you all the extra support you need without any of the toxic materials that might harm you or the baby. Get that sleep while you can, mama!

For sleep support after pregnancy—or for other members of your family—we love these sustainable body pillows.

1. Coyuchi

2. Buffy

Best For | Restless sleepers
Natural Materials | Eucalyptus TENCEL™ lyocell fabric and 100% recycled PET, BPA-free fill
Price | $69

If you are a sleeper who needs a multi-position night of rest, Buffy makes a pillow for you! The Wiggle Pillow is the floppy friend you need to flip from side to side, cozying up to its extra fluffy spun recycled filling (each pillow recycles around 55 plastic bottles!). Tie it, squish it, twist it under your belly or in a loop around your back—this is a pillow that can be molded for your body’s perfect fit. (Note that the cover is sold separately!)

3. Bearaby

Best For | An ergonomic body pillow for before, during, and after pregnancy
Natural Materials | GOLS-certified Melofoam™, GOTS-certified 100% organic cotton cover
Price | $199+

From one of our very favorite weighted blanket brands comes this squishy ergonomic body pillow—perfect for before, during, and after your pregnancy. Called “The Cuddler”, Bearaby’s newest innovation is made of GOLS-certified Melofoam™ (basically an all-natural rubber foam that is soft and conforming). What we love most is that, in addition to the white organic cotton cover, you can select covers in warm and cozy colors to match your bedroom or baby nursery. The only downside (which isn’t really a downside) is that it’s quite large at 82” x 7.5”—our editors wish they could carry it with them everywhere!
