Pregnancy, Labour & Birthing Cushion – Clinical Front-Lying Support
This medical-grade maternity cushion is designed for pregnant women who need to lie safely on their front. Used in active labour, maternity wards, home births, and professional pregnancy treatment, it provides full support in the prone position by eliminating pressure on the abdomen, chest, back, neck, and spine.
The removable centre section allows the cushion to be adjusted at any stage of pregnancy. The cut-out can be further enlarged by widening the adjustable Velcro thigh supports, making it suitable for use on clinical treatment couches, portable therapy tables, or standard beds at home.
