Majority of standard pillows are made from synthetic material. Typically with foam or polyfill. Some may have an organic cover with a synthetic inside filling. Be sure to check the entire materials list to know for sure. 

The MoonWomb pillow can be beneficial for anyone, especially mothers. Deigned to be a versatile pillow that will relieve your growing belly and pelvis pressure. Because of the low compression, it takes the weight off of your hips, pelvis and spine. You will find that this minimalistic design is much more comfortable and functional than the bulky pregnancy pillows found in large retailers. It is a must have pillow for love making while pregnant. You can use it under your tailbone to support your body and maintain comfort at an angle so your belly has room.

Using the pillow to lay on your tummy, you can shape the pillow into a semi circle and lie down into child’s pose with your belly in the center and your upper body resting on the moon. The hulls hold a lot of weight without compressing so you can enjoy some time to rest your back.
During birth your moon pillow will also help you with lowering baby into the birth canal. Sitting on the middle of the moon with the sides pulled into the center, rest your legs gently over the sides, the opening in the middle will allow your pelvis to sink and open allowing baby to transition lower. It is also a wonderful resting space for laboring because it takes the weight off of your arms. If you are on all fours, lay into childspose with your chest hitting mid moon, similar to the belly relief position. This will give you a nice break from supporting yourself through contractions.

Spending anywhere from 12-16 hours a day feeding your little babe during the first 6 months can be tough on your shoulders neck and back. While breastfeeding or bottle feeding, the Moon pillow takes the weight and strain off of you. While still being close, the breathable naturally temperature regulating pillow will minimize any sweating or discomfort.

To transfer baby from feeding to sleeping, the moon pillow holds the weight of your baby and limits the startle reflex. Oftentimes we try to lay our sleeping one down and they immediately wake up. Using the moon pillow to make this transition is much more successful.
