A maternity pillow is a specially designed pillow that provides support and comfort to pregnant women during sleep or rest.

The maternity pillow market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $558.04 billion in 2023 to $587.99 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth in the historic period is attributed to the rising demand for convenience products during pregnancy, greater consumer awareness, an increasing incidence of restless leg syndrome among pregnant women, a growing preference for memory foam pregnancy pillows, and a heightened focus on organic fillings.
The maternity pillow market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $727.91 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth in the forecast period is attributed to an increase in the pregnancy rate, higher demand for memory foam pregnancy pillows, the rising popularity of premium pregnancy pillows, health benefits such as pain relief and comfort, and increased spending power. Key trends during this period include targeted advertisements and promotions of pregnancy pillows, advancements in technologies, the creation of innovative products, a growing emphasis on social media advertising, and government initiatives aimed at raising awareness.
The rising incidence of restless leg syndrome among pregnant women is anticipated to drive the growth of the maternity pillow market in the future. Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurological condition characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs due to uncomfortable sensations. The increase in cases of RLS among pregnant women is linked to factors such as iron deficiency, increased blood volume, weight gain, fluid retention, sleep disruptions, and genetic or pre-existing conditions. Maternity pillows can help alleviate RLS in pregnant women by offering enhanced leg support and promoting better circulation during sleep. For example, in May 2022, a report by the National Library of Medicine, a US-based organization, noted that the prevalence of RLS significantly rises during pregnancy, reaching 41.0% in the third trimester compared to 15.7% in the first trimester. Therefore, the rising incidence of RLS among pregnant women is fueling the growth of the maternity pillow market.
Key players in the maternity pillow market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as pillows with adjustable and removable belly wedges, to strengthen their competitive position. These specialized cushions are designed to provide customizable support for pregnant women by allowing users to adjust or remove the wedge, accommodating the growing belly for enhanced comfort. For instance, in November 2023, Momcozy, a US-based producer of momcare products, launched its new F-shaped pregnancy pillow, engineered to offer comprehensive support for expecting mothers. A notable feature of the Momcozy F-shaped Pregnancy Pillow is its adjustable and removable belly wedge, which can be easily repositioned using a Velcro fastener to support the growing belly throughout all trimesters.
In June 2022, Kids2 Inc., a US-based product manufacturer, acquired Summer Infant Inc. for an undisclosed sum.
