But now we have found out a way to help you walk through these 9 months without comprising on the amount of sleep you get. The solution is named the ‘Pregnancy Pillow’. Our website PregnancyPillowMart.com comprises all sorts of necessary pieces of information regarding this amazing product.

One of those properties you should consider while buying a maternity pillow is pillow filling. It’s important because you have to make sure that you are investing in the right pillow that can actually help you with sleeping problems. Because the filling of maternity pillows has an impact on the comfort level and quality of sleep.

 

Styrofoam Filling

Pillows with Styrofoam filling are lightweight and comparatively cheaper. They have tiny white plastic balls filled inside. (Yes, you got it right they are the same balls filled in bean bags.) The advantage of this type of pillow is it can easily fit and adapt to your contours. However, the noisy plastic balls may cause difficulty in sleeping if you are a light sleeper.

 

Micro-beads Filling

Contrary to Styrofoam balls, micro-bead pillows have smaller balls used in their filling. As the name indicates they are very tiny that upon touch it feels like you’re touching the sand. And therefore, they are very soft and supportive. They are also lightweight and can easily be carried around anywhere.

 

Polyester Filling

Though polyester filling is widely used in maternity pillows it’s necessary to consider its both positive and negative aspects before buying. Polyester filling offers incredible cushioning support because of its soft fibers and doesn’t make any noise at all. You may also choose it as per your preference for a firm or soft pillow. Its firmness can be changed by altering the amount of fiber used.

While some of the major drawbacks of polyester filling are listed as:

✓  It can easily trap dust and bacteria that can affect women with dust allergies

✓  It also tends to absorb heat and make you sweat while sleeping for an extended time

✓  It doesn’t allow enough air to circulate through it

 

Memory Foam Filling

Memory foam filling provides firmness to your maternity pillow. However, its soft and supportive padding keeps your body in place. It takes the shape of your body and its impression when you lay down over it but regains the original shape once you get up. It is also recommended as the best pregnancy pillow to help reducing body aches and pains.

 

Feathers Filling

Feather fillings make your pillows incredibly soft and fluffy. Normally, duck or goose feathers are used for this purpose. However, the drawback is that it may trigger allergies (if you have any) or sometimes breathing issues. Also, it is a cruelty to animals.

 

Natural and Organic Filling

Up till now, the best, or we should say eco-friendly option for pillow filling is natural and organic stuff. Natural fillings may include:

  • Buckwheat
  • Wool
  • Spelt
  • Kapok

Buckwheat and kapok are among the widely used natural substances used to stuff pillows and cushions. Since it is said that buckwheat is a hard material it is durable but may cause discomfort while positioning your body during sleep.

Both feathers and organic filling pillows are comparatively expensive than other options available in the market.

Along with different aspects, it is equally important to take a deep look at the filling of pregnancy pillows rather than buying a cheaper one. When you are willing to invest in a pregnancy pillow why not buy something that lasts longer and serves better.
