Katie: Hey, there.
It's Katie from Mattress Clarity.
I've got one heck of maternity pillow [laughs] with me today.
This is the Cozy Bump.
It is an inflatable pregnancy pillow that's really designed for stomach sleepers.
You put your bump right here, and you get a break.
I cannot wait to go into this review with you.
Let's get started.

Katie: Before we get started, if you've got any questions or you want to comment -- maybe
you want a recommendation on a pregnancy pillow for yourself -- just comment below.
I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.
Let's talk about the Cozy Bump.
This looks like [laughs] an inflatable pool toy, I know.
It's really a pregnancy pillow that's designed to give mothers a break by allowing you to
rest your bump and take a break off your back.
If you are pregnant and maybe you've always slept on your stomach or you enjoy lying on
your stomach or you miss sleeping on your stomach, this might really be the best pregnancy
pillow for you.
I have not seen too many of these out here.
The Cozy Bump comes in two colors, pink and blue.
It's made of a plastic material so you can spot-clean it.
It's six feet long and nearly nine and a half inches tall.
There's two chambers you're going to inflate.
You're going to inflate the big piece and then this small circle.
This is what's really going to accommodate any size bump.
If you got a bigger bump, you can deflate it.
Just make sure to accommodate accordingly.
The other piece that you're going to need is a swaddle that it comes with.
The swaddle you're going to lay gently over this hole before you lay down on it.
That's really going to support your stomach as well and really make the whole pillow come
together.
Despite its big size, it's actually easy to deflate.
It comes with a travel bag.
You can just bundle everything up and take it to go.
There are a lot of things to like about the Cozy Bump.
I truly have not seen too many maternity pillows that cater to women who miss sleeping on their
stomachs, who want to take a nice break and get that weight off their back.
There's a lot of advantages to a pillow like this.
It is really easy to inflate and deflate if you have an electronic pump.
Definitely consider getting one of those.
Travel case makes it easy to take with you.
I also really like that you can put a whole sheet and a pillow on here and create a bed-like
atmosphere for it.
It's really truly cozy.
With regards to cons for this pillow, obviously you can see it takes up a lot of room.
This can go on top of a bed.
Just imagine your partner's sleeping next [laughs] to you just needing to share that
space.
It's definitely worth keeping in mind.
Fortunately, for storage purposes you can deflate it.
The other thing to think about here is that it is OB/GYN-and-chiropractor-approved.
It is safe to sleep on overnight according to the company.
I would just recommend checking with your doctor first, just making sure that they're
comfortable with you sleeping on your stomach for a prolonged period of time.
My personal experience was that it was very comfortable for a nap and for a rest or a
break.
I put a pillow right here.
I was able to relax enough to fall asleep for a short amount of time, but I couldn't
last completely overnight.
Now, I am 5'7''.
Although, the pillow is six feet long, that was pretty much a toe-to-head situation for
me.
I was at the end.
If you're taller, maybe 5'8'' or taller, you may have your feet or your head hang off a
little bit.
For those moments during my pregnancy when I really just wanted to take the weight off
my back and lay on my stomach for a few minutes, I was so happy to have the Cozy Bump.
It was easy to inflate.
Just make sure you have an electronic pump or handheld pump available, or you'll need
to buy that separately.
I also wasn't able to sleep on it completely overnight.
I was able to rest on it comfortably for shorter amounts of time.
I would highly recommend checking with your OB/GYN before you try to sleep on it overnight
just to make sure it's a hundred percent right for you.
Now, it is a little bit on the pricey side, around $75 for the pillow.
Then, also you need to consider the pump as well.
If you're someone who used to sleep on their stomach all the time, you're pregnant now
and you just want to be able to do it again, this could be a great option.
Don't hesitate to let me know if you've got any other questions.
We've got a lot of pregnancy pillow reviews up.
All you need to do is google Mattress Clarity Pregnancy Pillow reviews, and check them all
out.
Thanks.
