Getting enough rest when pregnant is important. Unfortunately, it’s also often quite tricky to achieve. Finding the right sleeping position for your changing body is rarely easy but a dedicated pregnancy pillow can go some way to helping that. We’ve looked at the best pregnancy pillows currently on the market.

Wedge pillows can also be useful, and there’s even room for one that makes it possible to still sleep on your stomach. Whatever your preferred sleeping position, we’ve got you covered.
