CLOSED: Select Comfort....for your 'bump' (+ Giveaway)

* Click here to view the name(s) of the winner(s)*

If you have been pregnant any time in your life, you will know how uncomfortable sleeping can get as you progress into your second trimester. I have read that blood circulation is the best for baby and you when you sleep on your left side. I did that with Bunny girl and I do that with Bunny Boo now.

To ensure I sleep comfortably I also sleep with a pillow between my legs, one to cushion my 'bump' and the other behind my back for support....to put it simply I'm a pillow snowman! This helps with the occasional back aches but is NO FUN when the pillow behind my back falls out in the middle of the night. I refuse to get up lest I lose my 'comfort position'. Have you faced a similar predicament Expectant Mommies?

Well just about 2 weeks ago, Select Comfort, a 23 year old bedding retailer from Minneapolis sent me a 'pillow that stays in place' solution......their Sleep Number Maternity Pillow.

The Sleep Number Maternity Pillow is actually two kidney shaped fluffed pillows

that can be attached to each other with the velcro straps on the flaps.

You can adjust the distance of the pillows based on your comfort and then just snuggle in for a comfortable, supported night's sleep.

The Sleep Number Maternity Pillow is 100% cotton with stain resisting Teflon and comes with a 5 year limited warranty.

I love that I'm not minus a pillow behind my back halfway through the night and the soft 'cushiony' feel surround my bump is comforting. (Note: I still do sleep with a pillow between my legs as I somehow feel this gives me additional comfort. )

Buy it:

A Sleep Number Maternity Pillow originally costs 39.99 US$ but till 2/28/2010 you can buy the same online for a discounted price of 27.99 US$.

Win it:

One reader will have the opportunity to win a Sleep Number Maternity Pillow.

By the time a couple has been together 20 years, they’ll have spent over 50,000 hours (roughly 6 – 7 years) together in their bed.

WOW!! LOL.

We’ve long known that inadequate sleep can lead to all sorts of health issues including high blood pressure, a weakened immune system—even obesity and diabetes"

At March 13, 2010 at 2:07 PM , Kathy P said...: Does your partner bring work to bed, or prefer to fall asleep to the sound of the television each night? Sleep experts suggest using the bedroom only for relaxing rituals and sleep. Create a bedroom sanctuary conducive to these activities, leaving the computers and televisions for other rooms in the house.

This was the key discovery in a University of Chicago study that measured sleep duration and correlated it to a 5-year incidence of coronary artery calcification. Those sleeping longer had clearer arteries.

I never really thought about the fact that it could affect my memory, good to know, especially when studying
