Pregnancy Pillow Cover

Pregnancy pillow cover in 100% OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified cotton (Class I — safe for babies and skin next to skin) with a full-length YKK zip along the outside curve — sized to fit U-shape, C-shape and full-body pregnancy pillows. Our pregnancy pillow cover is fragrance-free, fabric-softener-free at the mill, and 60 °C hot-wash rated so it can be laundered as often as your body needs.

Why a spare pregnancy pillow cover is essential

A pregnancy pillow is used for eight to nine hours every night for months, and later doubles as a nursing pillow. The one thing every parent will tell you they wish they had bought sooner is a spare cover. There is no time in either of those situations to strip the bed, wash the cover and wait for it to dry when the current one gets soaked through at 3 a.m.

Why OEKO-TEX Class I matters here

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I is the fabric certification for baby articles — the strictest tier of the standard, tested against a longer list of substances than adult clothing has to meet. Once the baby arrives the same pillow becomes a nursing pillow, and the cloth is against their skin for hours a day. Class I is the certification that says the fabric is safe there.

Fits the four main pregnancy pillow shapes

Sized to fit U-shape (full-body wrap-around), C-shape (side-and-back), J-shape (long single) and wedge (under-belly support). Confirm your pillow shape at checkout — the cover is cut to the exact silhouette in each case rather than one generic bag.

How to care for your pregnancy pillow cover

• Machine wash at up to 60 °C (140 °F) — the temperature that deals with fluids properly
• Tumble dry low or hang
• Skip fabric softener — coats fibre and increases irritation on sensitive skin
• Use fragrance-free detergent for the first month after birth
• Buy two — one on, one in the wash
