Let's be honest about what's NOT working:
The DIY Pillow Fort You've tried stacking your regular bed pillows, haven't you? They compress flat under your weight, shift with every movement, and require constant readjustment. By the time you've finally found something stable, the moment is gone and you're both frustrated.
The Pregnancy Wedge Too small. Only supports one part of your body. You still need three other pillows to complete the puzzle, and you're right back to the pillow fort problem.
The Great Wall of China That massive C-shaped or U-shaped pregnancy pillow?
Women call it 'the devil.' 'A dead alligator you have to wrestle every night.' 'The equivalent of the Great Wall of China in our bed.'
One woman said it perfectly: 'I feel like I can't cuddle with my husband because this thing is in between us.'
And she's right.
These pillows were designed for ONE person to sleep ALONE. They're isolation chambers, not intimacy tools.
They're making your problem WORSE, not better.
And Here's What Nobody Tells You:
The real problem isn't that you need 'more pillows' or 'better positions.'
The real problem is biomechanical.
When you're pregnant:
- Your center of gravity shifts forward
- Your pelvis tilts
- Your spine compensates in ways that create pain
- Standard flat positioning puts pressure directly on your belly (triggering your partner's fear)
No amount of regular pillows can solve a biomechanical problem.
You need a solution specifically engineered for YOUR body, at THIS stage of your life."
