We have found the perfect partner to share our bed during pregnancy. One that doesn’t snore or hog the covers and doesn’t mind us throwing our cramped leg over it.
No, we haven’t found a push-over for a partner (although that would be a bonus). It’s the Nneka pillow ($60) created by Orford, Quebec mom Caroline Gilbert. This multi-tasking pillow is a natural support for our bulging tummies while the organic fibres keep our limbs cool during those last heated months of pregnancy. And when baby arrives, we can count on the six pounds of 100% organic buckwheat hulls to support our little bundles while we nurse (all while keeping dust mites at bay).
When our bundles start growing, our Nneka can adapt to our tyke’s little body. All we have to do is remove some of the hulls to ensure a better fit once our little guy learns how to sit.
If only our partner could be so multi-tasking…
