The Importance of Sleep
As it is commonly known, pregnant women need a sufficient amount of sleep to support the growth of their babies. Lack of deep sleep may reduce the amount of growth hormone released, which can lead to developmental or growth problems in the unborn foetus. This is why it is Dreamgenii’s priority to create a solution for the discomfort pregnant women may feel. Not only is the amount of sleep important but also the position in which you sleep in. The safest position to sleep in is on your side. Dreamgenii’s Pregnancy, Support and Feeding Pillow is designed especially to help reduce the pain associated with side sleeping and to support your growing belly. Back pain is also a common complaint during pregnancy, and it can make sleeping difficult. Dreamgenii Pillows are designed to provide support to the back, which can help reduce back pain. The pillow is contoured to fit the body and support the spine, which can help alleviate pressure on the back muscles and ensures a comfortable sleep position.
Dreamgenii Pregnancy, Support and Feeding Pillow
This pillow has it all. Getting comfortable in bed may be one of the greatest challenges during pregnancy, especially when you’re trying to find the best position to support your body and baby - but the Dreamgenii Pregnancy, Support and Feeding Pillow is approved by many, many mums. The unique and patented shape of the Dreamgenii moulds comfortably around your bump, whilst also supporting your back and knees, as pregnancy progresses and sleeping becomes more difficult.

The snuggly and cosy feel of the Dreamgenii’s jersey cover will wrap you up in a comfortable cocoon and is sure to become your new best friend, (sorry partners!), especially during the last months of pregnancy. Then, once your baby arrives, this long-lasting 2-in-1 pillow can also be used as a feeding support pillow after birth. This multipurpose pillow is ideal for multiple stages of your baby’s growth, aiding side-sleeping and feeding whilst providing optimal relief for your back and joints.

Other Tips to a Great Night’s Sleep
1. Ditch the screens.
Did you know that the blue light emitted by your devices can disrupt your body's natural production of melatonin, the hormone that helps regulate your sleep-wake cycles? Although it's tempting to unwind by scrolling through your phone in bed, try opting for a book instead! It's a cosy and screen free alternative that can help create a more relaxing environment for a restful night's sleep
2. Listen to a guided meditation
3. Stick to a consistent bedtime each night that allows for at least 8 hours of sleep
4. Think about your meals.
Pregnancy can not only cause insomnia but also pesky side effects such as, heartburn, acid reflux, and frequent bathroom trips. Be mindful of your eating and drinking habits as nighttime approaches. To minimise heartburn and acid reflux, it's best to steer clear of spicy, fried, or acidic foods, especially later in the day. By being mindful of your food choices and adjusting your water intake, you can improve your chances of enjoying a more restful and uninterrupted sleep during this special time.
Dreamgenii Pillows are a great investment for any expectant or new mother looking for a comfortable and versatile solution to their pregnancy and postpartum needs. They offer numerous benefits, such as improved sleep, reduced back pain, and better breastfeeding positions. With their versatility, they can be used for a variety of purposes, making them a must-have for any new parent. Remember, every body is unique, so be patient and flexible as you discover what works best for you at this special time.
