How to use a pregnancy pillow
According to prenatal chiropractor Dr. Lizzie Sobel of Wholesome Healing Chiropractic, there are several ways to use a pregnancy pillow.

?Pregnancy pillows support your body and allow for greater comfort during sleep and rest. Many people like having some support behind their lower back, between their knees, or even under their pregnant belly. Some like having a big wedge to allow them to safely and comfortably rest on their back, even in late-stage pregnancy," she explains. Ways pregnancy pillows can relieve discomfort
Dr. Sobel says pregnancy pillows can support the belly and back, which puts less strain on our muscles and ligaments. "Used between our legs, they can also help maintain pelvic balance, which can prevent or alleviate discomfort."

Pregnancy pillows can also keep the upper body and wrists in a neutral supported position to avoid carpal tunnel or upper back compression. Sobel notes wedge-shaped pillows are useful if someone is experiencing acid reflux while lying down.
