- Nursing pillow accessories, replacement covers, inserts, and travel-friendly designs
How to choose the right pillow
If you're pregnant
A full-length U or C-shape body pillow supports your back, bump, and knees in one piece, which matters once side-sleeping becomes non-negotiable in the second and third trimesters. Wedges work well if you have a smaller bed, share with a partner, or want targeted lift under the belly or lower back.
If you're nursing or bottle-feeding
A firm, contoured nursing pillow keeps baby level with the breast or bottle so you aren't hunching. Look for a removable, machine-washable cover, this is the single feature parents thank themselves for at week three.
If you're shopping the nursery
Pair your pillow choice with a supportive feeding chair and a sleep setup built for the first year. Browse our motorized nursery gliders for hands-free rocking during long feeds, and the mattress collection when you're ready to think about crib and bassinet sleep surfaces.
Materials and care
Most pillows in this collection use hypoallergenic fills with cotton or cotton-blend covers; organic cotton options are available for parents prioritizing GOTS-certified textiles against baby's skin. Covers zip off and machine wash; check individual product pages for fill care, since some inserts are spot-clean only.
Pairs well with
- Baby gear essentials for feeding, sleep, and on-the-go
- Ergobaby carriers and accessories for babywearing once feeding finds its rhythm
- Lovevery play essentials for tummy time and early development
Frequently asked questions
When should I start using a pregnancy pillow?
Most parents start in the second trimester, around weeks 16 to 20, when side-sleeping becomes recommended and the bump starts pulling on the lower back. Some begin earlier for hip discomfort.
What's the difference between a nursing pillow and a regular pillow?
Nursing pillows are firmer and shaped to wrap your waist, holding baby at breast or bottle height so your arms and shoulders aren't carrying the weight of a feed. A regular pillow collapses under a newborn and forces you to hunch.
Can I use a nursing pillow for tummy time?
Yes, propping baby's chest over the pillow during supervised, awake tummy time is a common use and helps build neck and shoulder strength.
Are the pillow covers machine washable?
Most covers in this collection are removable and machine washable. Check the individual product page for fill care, some inserts are spot-clean only.
