Dreamgenii Pregnancy & Nursing Pillow
6.6/10 overallAbout £40
A dual-purpose pillow used for bump and hip support in late pregnancy, then reconfigured as a nursing support pillow after birth.
The verdict
The Dreamgenii is a dual-purpose pillow, around £40, that supports the bump and hips in late pregnancy and reconfigures into a nursing support pillow after birth. It's best for parents who want one product to bridge pregnancy discomfort and early nursing rather than buying two separate pillows — though its post-birth nursing support is less specialised than dedicated pillows like the Boppy.
This pillow is designed to earn its keep across two stages: during pregnancy, it supports the bump and goes between the knees to ease hip pressure while side-sleeping; after birth, the same pillow reconfigures into a nursing support shape. That dual-purpose design makes it a genuinely different pick from single-purpose nursing pillows like the Boppy or My Brest Friend.
Against a dedicated nursing-only pillow, the trade-off is that its post-birth nursing support is less specialised — it doesn't wrap and strap like My Brest Friend, nor is it as plush as the Boppy — but you avoid buying two separate pillows across pregnancy and the newborn stage, which matters if storage space or budget is tight.
For parents who want one product bridging late pregnancy discomfort and early nursing support, this is a sensible two-stage buy. For the best nursing-specific support alone, a dedicated nursing pillow will outperform it.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Dreamgenii pillow worth buying instead of separate pregnancy and nursing pillows?+
Yes if you want one product bridging both stages — it saves buying two separate pillows across pregnancy and the newborn stage, which matters if storage space or budget is tight. It also genuinely helps with hip pressure in late pregnancy as well as providing feeding support afterwards.
How does the Dreamgenii compare to a dedicated nursing pillow?+
Its post-birth nursing support is less specialised than a dedicated nursing pillow — it doesn't wrap and strap like My Brest Friend, nor is it as plush as the Boppy — but in exchange you avoid buying two separate pillows across pregnancy and the nursing stage.
What is the Dreamgenii pillow used for during pregnancy?+
It supports the bump and goes between the knees to ease hip pressure while side-sleeping during pregnancy, before reconfiguring into a nursing support shape once the baby arrives, so the same pillow earns its keep across two distinct stages.
Is the Dreamgenii pillow easy to clean?+
Yes, it has a removable, machine-washable cover, which makes it straightforward to keep clean across both the pregnancy and nursing stages of use, when spills and general wear are likely.
