Our Favorite Pregnancy Pillow Is Half Off

A body pillow can make sleep more comfortable for lots of people, but that’s especially true for pregnant people whose bodies are rapidly changing. If you’re currently pregnant (or hoping to be) and haven’t tried a pregnancy pillow yet, our best-in-class pick from Newton is 50 percent off, bringing the price down to a mere $40. What’s particularly great about this pillow is how versatile it is: A two-piece design connected by a simple zipper means you can configure it to be U-shaped or J-shaped depending on your sleep preferences and where you need the most support at any given point during pregnancy. Strategist senior writer Liza Corsillo used this pillow when she was pregnant with her son and found it particularly effective for relieving lower-back pain and cushioning her swollen ankles. The pillow is filled with a mix of shredded memory foam and fiber fill for a nice mix of cushioning and support, and it is covered with organic cotton. And of course, a deal’s a deal, so if you just want an excellent convertible body pillow to use while sleeping, reading in bed, or lounging on the couch, you certainly don’t need to be pregnant to take advantage (at least one not-pregnant Strategist staffer is about to take the plunge).
