Pregnancy is beautiful, but let’s be honest — it’s not always comfortable. Between back pain, hip pressure, and constant tossing and turning, many moms struggle to get the rest they need. And since good sleep is essential for both mom and baby, it’s important to find solutions that work.

This is your complete guide to sleeping comfortably during pregnancy — with real tips, expert-backed advice, and the comfort solutions that make all the difference.

💤 Why Sleep Gets Harder in Pregnancy

As your body changes, sleep becomes more difficult:

Hormonal shifts disrupt your natural rhythms.

Growing belly makes it hard to find a comfortable position.

Back and hip pain increase pressure on joints.

Circulation changes can cause swelling in your legs and feet.

Understanding why sleep gets harder is the first step in fixing it.

🛏️ The #1 Doctor-Recommended Sleeping Position

Experts recommend sleeping on your left side during pregnancy. This improves circulation, supports the uterus, and helps reduce swelling. But staying in that position isn’t always easy without support.

That’s where a pregnancy pillow comes in.

🌙 How a Pregnancy Pillow Helps

Unlike stacking regular pillows, a pregnancy pillow is designed to support your entire body:

Belly Support – Reduces strain and pressure.

Hip & Back Relief – Aligns your spine to ease pain.

Keeps You on Your Side – Prevents rolling onto your back.

Improves Circulation – Elevates legs to reduce swelling.

Postpartum Use – Becomes a nursing pillow after baby arrives.

👉 The HerPillow® Pregnancy Pillow is built with breathable fabric, adjustable filling, and a U-shape design for complete support from head to toe.
