Our customers’ fav for your Tummy: Pillow

This Pocket Pillow is handmade with loads of love for your tummy care after surgery. The Tummy Pocket Pillow has a contrasting pocket and is made from a variety of beautiful color choices.

Are pillows important to surgery recovery?

We recommend that you the pillow over your incision as you cough or sneeze which provides support to your tender belly.

And, we suggest placing a small pillow between your tender incision area and the seatbelt on any car ride. This will make a safer and more comfortable car ride on the way home. In fact, leave your pillow in the car to keep in handy!

Once you are at home, your tummy pillow can also be used to prevent pets and small children from bumping your incisions.

Hands down favorite – Tummy Pillow

We are often asked – “If I can get just one item, what would you suggest?” This is a hard one because there are actually two important products we think will make your recovery much easier and more comfortable.

The Tummy Pillow comes to mind first for your hysterectomy recovery. Not because it is the most important but it is likely to be the product you will want to have with you from the very moment you wake up from surgery.

The Hysterectomy Store’s Tummy pillow is unique in that it is handmade with a pocket on one side for you to insert one of the two cold packs that come with the pillow.

The ice packs provide cooling relief while the pillow provides gentle support –

while you ride in the car (put it between you and the seatbelt)

while you lounge on the sofa to protect your belly from sneezes, coughs,

and protects you from pets who need to be near you….

and (if you have small children) their elbows and knees while they spend time with you.

Our Tummy Pillow with Pocket comes in a variety of fabrics that change constantly. See one that you like? Grab it because stock is always “iffy” and you might not see that particular fabric again!
