Black Out Blinds
View on AmazonCharlotte Recommends: Blackout blinds are highly effective for improving sleep quality by creating a completely dark environment, which is helps the body to produce melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep. By blocking out external light sources such as streetlights or early morning sunlight, blackout blinds help maintain a natural circadian rhythm, allowing youn to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Particularly beneficial for shift workers, young children, or anyone living in brightly lit areas. I used this with my foster kids and also take them on holiday in the summer to avoid the early morning sunshine reducing my 7hours of sleep!

Black Out Eye Mask
View on AmazonCharlotte Recommends: if a blackout blind isn’t possible and you don’t mind something on your head then this mask is my recommendation. The design means there is no contact on eye lashes (which irritate me and stop me being able to sleep with it on). The blocking out of light helps the body release sufficient melatonin to initiate sleep and allows you to sleep longer in the summer months with early sun rises.

Good Neck Pillow
View on AmazonCharlotte Recommends: Cervical contour memory foam pillows are recommended for improving sleep quality and managing pain due to their ergonomic design, which supports proper spinal alignment and reduces strain on the neck and upper back. The memory foam conforms to the head and neck, distributing pressure evenly and minimizing pressure points, which helps prevent numbness and discomfort. I like this one as it accommodates various sleep positions.

Knee Pillow
View on AmazonCharlotte Phelps: Using a knee pillow can significantly reduce pain by promoting proper spinal alignment during sleep. When placed between the knees, it helps maintain the natural alignment of the hips, pelvis, and lower back, which can alleviate pressure on the spine and reduce strain on the lower back muscles. This improved alignment can lead to decreased pain and stiffness, particularly for those with lower back issues, sciatica, or hip pain, by distributing weight more evenly and reducing stress on joints and muscles throughout the night. I like to like on my right side, so put my left leg on this pillow and it really helps reduce my lower back stiffness and pain.

Multi-Purpose Whole Body Pillow
View on AmazonNicky Recommends: Whole body pillows offer benefits beyond pregnancy support, making them valuable for various sleepers. These pillows promote proper spinal alignment by supporting multiple body parts simultaneously, which can reduce pressure on joints and muscles, potentially alleviating back, hip, and knee pain. Additionally, they can improve sleep quality by encouraging a more stable sleeping position, reducing tossing and turning, and providing comfort for side sleepers or those recovering from injuries. Ever since i was pregnant I’ve kept sleeping with mine because it’s just so damned comfortable and gives me really good spinal support.
