What's the difference between the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow and Nursing Pillow?
At bbhugme we offer both a Pregnancy Pillow and a Nursing Pillow. Below, we will explain the differences between our two products and their unique features.
The bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow
The Pregnancy Pillow was the first product developed by bbhugme. Our founders, three female chiropractors, couldn’t find a good enough body pillow to help the pregnant women they treated, so they decided to develop a pillow that offers the perfect combination of comfort, support, and adjustability.
While many pregnancy pillows are filled with foam and come in a bulky, static shape, the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow is filled with pressure-relieving microbeads that allow you to customize the pillow to the shape and firmness your body needs, whether you're sleeping or sitting.
As a full-body pillow for side-sleeping, the pillow offers unique 5-point body support in the most critical areas: belly, lower back, pelvis, knees, and ankles. You can also use it in U, J, and L-shapes depending on the support and comfort you need.
Many moms also find that the bbhugme Pregnancy Pillow provides great support for feeding. The long length makes it easy to wrap around your body to support you on all sides and brings your baby up to the level of the breast. The size also makes it great for feeding older babies and twins!
The bbhugme Nursing Pillow
Following the success of the Pregnancy Pillow, bbhugme’s founders decided to design another pillow that is smaller, more portable, and designed specifically for feeding. As mothers themselves, they understood the need to be able to comfortably feed your baby anywhere and anytime.
The bbhugme Nursing Pillow is both smaller and narrower than the Pregnancy Pillow, which makes it easy to transport in its travel bag, whether that’s on an overnight trip or just a walk to the café.
In addition, our Nursing Pillow can be tied around your waist by securing the fabric ends behind your back. This allows you to bring the pillow and your baby up to the correct height on your body, which is important for establishing a good latch (if you’re breastfeeding) and for reducing the strain on your shoulders and neck that can be caused by hunching over. The extra-long fabric ends make the pillow suitable for many different body types.
Adjustable and adaptable to your changing needs
Both our Pregnancy and Nursing Pillows feature adjustable firmness. By sliding the two Pebbles, you can make the pillow as firm or as soft as you need.
Both our Pregnancy Pillow and Nursing Pillow come with a removable, washable cover. To help keep your bbhugme pillows fresh and extend their longevity, we also offer extra Covers and Pebbles in a range of beautiful styles and colors.
