A waist pillow for pregnant women is a pillow that protects their waist. Because pregnant women have not yet found a comfortable sleeping position when they first become pregnant, they need a lumbar pillow at this time. A waist pillow not only allows pregnant women to sleep comfortably, but also has the effect of keeping warm and relieving soreness. So, how to use a lumbar pillow for pregnant women?
Pregnant women can place a lumbar pillow on their waist, and in the later stages of pregnancy, it is best for pregnant women to sleep on their left side. Because in the later stages of pregnancy, the baby in the belly will change to a head position, and sleeping on the left side is mainly to avoid compressing the baby's heart and make the baby more comfortable in the pregnant woman's belly. The two main functions of a waist pillow are to help pregnant women adapt to the left sleeping position and to provide fetal and waist protection.
1. Help pregnant women adapt to sleeping on the left side
It is best to sleep on the left side during pregnancy, but some pregnant women are not accustomed to sleeping on the left side. So at this point, a lumbar pillow is needed to help pregnant women adapt to sleeping on their left side.
2. Assist pregnant women in securing their pregnancy and protecting their waist
Under normal circumstances, sleeping on the side of a pregnant woman can cause the baby in her belly to be squeezed, and the pregnant woman may also feel particularly uncomfortable in her waist. At this point, a lumbar pillow is also needed to help pregnant women alleviate discomfort. Using a lumbar pillow to support the pregnant woman's waist not only eliminates the pressure on the baby in the belly, but also relieves the pain caused by the stomach. Ultimately, it helps pregnant women fall asleep comfortably.
