The Sleepybelly is an adjustable three-piece pregnancy pillow filled with activated latex which provides the perfect balance between support and comfort.
Some mums-to-be fall instantly in love with their Sleepybelly. However, most of our mums-to-be take a couple nights, to a couple of weeks of trialling different positions to find the perfect combination for them.
We find that what works for women at the start of their pregnancy is different to what works for them further into their pregnancy.
In order to ship the Sleepybelly to you, we vacuum seal the pillow to protect it, as well as making shipping and handling more convenient.
Unfortunately the desiccated natural latex fibres inside the Sleepybelly – used for enhanced support and comfort – don't love this process 😞
It is completely normal for your Sleepybelly to need to be fluffed up and aired out for 24 hours after arriving.
The desiccated natural latex fibres used inside the Sleepybelly can often have a strong scent when they first arrive (being pregnant your sense of smell can be elevated, so this may be more unpleasant for some at first). Freshly manufactured natural latex needs time to breathe. Simply open up your pillow, fluff it up and let it air out for 24 hours.
Sometimes the latex has been compressed for a while and requires a little love to get it to its original shape. Don’t worry, this is completely normal and it won’t affect the comfort levels of your pillow!
You may need to give your Sleepybelly a good massage to break apart the compressed sections, then shake the pillow to spread the fibres evenly around the pillow.
24 hours after you’ve fluffed and aired your Sleepybelly it will ready for your first comfortable night’s sleep!
(Hint: the vacuum seal bag is also perfect for packing away your Sleepybelly if you’re travelling or putting it away into storage).
The long back support pillow is 93cm long and 32cm wide at its widest point with a subtle curve in the pillow which nestles your back providing extra support. It is stitched on the inside along the bottom of the pillow which directs the latex filling up towards your back. On the back of the long pillow is a rectangular velcro panel which connects to the side wedge piece.
The side wedge pillow is a 35cm long and 22cm wide angled wedge pillow which tucks in below your tummy and provides relief for your bump and hips. The side wedge also features a 23cm connection strap which is able to securely velcro to the underside of the other pillows.
The second side wedge is also 35cm long and 22cm wide wedge pillow angled inwards to provide stability which prevents back sleeping. This side wedge does not feature the connection strap but instead has a velcro panel on the underside which connects to the other wedge.
Sleepybelly's 3-piece design allows for optimal comfort, through the duration of your pregnancy however you choose to sleep.
The Sleepybelly surrounds your tummy and back. One side provides support and relief for your tummy and the other side prevents you from rolling onto your back during the night.
Our unique design is easily adjustable to give you the optimal support throughout your entire pregnancy. As your belly grows, increase the width between the pillows using the velcro attachment.
Choose from the long back support for those who don’t tend to wriggle. Or the dual wedge pillow if you like to switch sides. The product comes with all 3 pieces so try both to see what works best for you.
