Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it comes with its challenges—especially when it comes to getting a good night’s sleep. As your body changes, so do your sleep needs. That’s where a pregnancy pillow can make all the difference. Whether you’re struggling with back pain, hip pressure, or just general discomfort, using a well-designed maternity pillow offers essential support throughout your pregnancy.
At ACL Imports, we offer a wide range of pregnancy pillows, including U shape pillows, V shape pillows, and more, to ensure you rest comfortably through every trimester.
Why You Need a Pregnancy Pillow
A pregnancy pillow isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity for many expecting mothers. Unlike regular pillows, pregnancy pillows are designed to support your body’s natural curves and reduce strain on key pressure points like your back, hips, and knees
.As your belly grows, you may find it difficult to sleep on your back or stomach. Side-sleeping becomes the recommended position, and that’s where a full-body pillow, like a 9ft U shape pillow, becomes your best companion.
Benefits of using a pregnancy pillow:
- Relieves pressure on the back and hips
- Supports belly and knees for proper alignment
- Helps improve sleep quality
- Can also be used as a nursing pillow post-delivery

Types of Pregnancy Pillows
Choosing the right pillow depends on your body shape, sleep position, and level of support you need. Here are the most popular types:
2. V Shape Pillow
If you’re looking for something versatile and compact, a V shape pillow is ideal. It’s great for upper body support while sitting, sleeping, or even feeding the baby.

3. Maternity & Nursing Pillows
Maternity pillows are specially designed for pregnancy comfort, but the best part is they can transition into nursing pillows once your baby arrives. This makes them a valuable investment during and after pregnancy.
FAQs About Pregnancy Pillows
How to Use a Pregnancy Pillow?
Using a pregnancy pillow depends on its shape:
- U shape pillow: Lay it on the bed and position your body in the middle, with both arms and legs hugging the sides.
- V shape pillow: Place it behind your back for upper body support or between your legs while lying on your side.
For nursing: Wrap the pillow around your waist to support the baby and your arms.
How to Sleep with a Pregnancy Pillow?
Side sleeping is the most recommended position during pregnancy. With a U shape pillow, you can place one side between your knees and hug the other side for belly and back support. If using a V shape pillow, tuck it under your bump or between your legs for added comfort.
Choosing the Right Pregnancy Pillow: What to Consider
When selecting a pregnancy pillow, keep these factors in mind:
- Size: A 9ft U shape pillow offers full-body coverage and is ideal for taller individuals or those needing complete support.
- Filling: Look for hypoallergenic fillings like superbounce fibers, which are soft yet firm.
- Material: Opt for breathable and washable fabrics, especially if you’ll use it for nursing later.
