Pregnancy Pillow

This ingenious pregnancy pillow is designed for your comfort, safety and support. Suitable for use from pregnancy to two years, the pregnancy pillow will help you and your child to breastfeed under the most comfortable circumstances possible.

The adjustable straps mean that you can adjust the cushion to fit your waist just right and your baby can comfortably and easily feed without you having to worry about holding them.

You can even use the nursing pillow when your child is older and learning to sit upright. This multi-purpose product uses special foam so that your child is completely safe and comfortable.

There are so many functions that the pillow is definitely good value for money, and can adapt and change for different purposes as your child grows up. The only downside of the cushion having so many functions is that it’s quite difficult to transform the pillow and unfortunately, it doesn’t come with a lot of instructions.

But if you figure it out, this pillow is definitely worth the money and can be used for years to come as your child develops.

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I have really enjoyed feeding my week-old baby using this pillow, it has been thought through to fit properly around the waist to keep baby close and plump to keep them at the perfect height, it has really helped our breastfeeding position. I have been taking it when visiting my family and they even use it when giving my little one cuddles as it is so comfortable. The cover is easily wipeable which has been really helpful and it dries very quickly. The seat insert has enabled a safe and comfy place for baby which she loves.

How did this product make your life easier?

We were struggling to get a good position with our current feeding pillow and I was often left needing to put my little one down somewhere while I rearranged after feeding so used cushions on the sofa. This pillow has made our positioning perfect so we are now confident feeding and I can let go of her and she stays at the perfect position with lots of support. I can also let her sleep in the same position for some time after comfortably and know she is safe.

I have really found the ClevaMama ClevaCushion has made our lives easier and it is such good quality, I think it will last a long time and I have highly recommended it to my sister who is due soon. The bold design has already caught my little one’s attention and the attached toys are a lovely touch of detail with the baby in mind as well as the mum. For such a simple idea it has excelled my expectations.

What changes would you make to this product?

I love the pattern and how soft and easy the cover is to clean, however after a few hours I have found that the material attracts a fair bit of dust. It makes the yellow colour look a bit grubby and requires a quick wipe with a sponge to look clean again.

Would you recommend this to other mums?

What a lovely product. I think it's been finished to a lovely quality and I like how adaptable it. I've used it as a floor cushion, feeding cushion and inside my baby’s swing. She seems to find it comfortable and I like how much support it gives her in propping her up as she's suffered a bit with colic.

What changes would you make to this product?

No improvements to suggest other than saying I think the advertising of 10 in 1 seems a bit gimmicky (sorry), it is ultimately a cushion that you can use in lots of places.

Tested by mum Danielle Winstanley for the M&B Awards 2017:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would recommend the ClevaMama ClevaCushion to a friend or fellow mum because it is a multifunctional cushion. It is easy to use and is very comfortable. The material which the cushion has been made with enable the cushion to mould around the body and give good support. It is easy to transport as it is very light which also makes it easy to use. It is very easy to take apart, clean and put back together.

How did this product make your life easier?

Being a mummy to three, this 10 in 1 nursing pillow makes my life a lot easier as it is very versatile, with it being able to be used for a lot of different situations. Being able to take it apart with ease makes it a lot easier to use it with either the pushchair, the carrycot, bouncy chair, as a nursing pillow and a bolster.

I love this pillow. I can use it for various different things that I do daily with my little boy. My son falls asleep on it whenever he is on it. When put in either the bounce chair, the pushchair as support or the carrycot or as the baby seat. It feels extremely comfortable when you press on it and my little boy looks comfortable when laying on it.

What changes would you make to this product?

If I had to change anything about this product it would be to make it so the cushion is a full cushion and went all the way around to support the back as well as support baby when feeding. However, I know this would then make it so it is not a nursing pillow but a different product altogether.

Tested by mum Tamsin Rycroft for the M&B Awards 2017:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

This ClevaMama ClevaCushion was firm with great support provided to mum and baby. The cover was easily wipeable and could be removed and washed in the washing machine. The insert can be used to provide additional support and comfort to your baby in many different situations including a baby bouncer and a car seat. The product grows with your baby and can be used as a baby nest and a baby seat as needed.

How did this product make your life easier?

This product enabled me to experience hands-free breastfeeding for the first time and I was able to read a book easily while feeding! I liked the fact that the flexible insert could be used wherever I needed it and welcomed the suggestions printed on the box the product came in.

Would you choose this product to win?

I was impressed by this product, especially the flexibility of use and functionality. This product is more than just a nursing pillow and as it can be used from pregnancy to throughout the first year, it offers great value for money. It would be a really useful baby shower present.

What changes would you make to this product?

I would prefer for the pillow cover design to be plainer and less brightly coloured. It would also be helpful if a storage bag was included so that the insert, attachable toys and the strap protectors could be stored safely together until needed to reduce the chance of bits getting lost.

Tested by mum Alex Pearce for the M&B Awards 2017:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

The best uses of this product are the feeding pillow and the insert. I have used the pillow to support my back while feeding at night, and as a support on my lap while feeding in the day. This has made feeding so much more comfortable for myself and my baby. The insert was a great help when my newborn was in his car seat as he was a fairly small baby and it was great to be able to support his head. I found this product very easy to use and put together.

How did this product make your life easier?

Having a support pillow when breastfeeding is good for a number of reasons. Firstly I am able to lay my baby in the correct feeding position to ensure he latches correctly. I can give my arms a rest from holding him while he's feeding and for anyone who's has a c-section it means the baby isn't aided on their tummy and causing discomfort.

What changes would you make to this product?

Personally, I would offer this in a number of fabrics rather than the one bright, spotty fabric. I like more neutral colours, particularly grey and would love it if this product was grey, black or beige. It's quite vibrant and not to everyone's taste, and with an RRP of £49.99, I'd want to like the fabric it was made in.
