Abstract

A prenatal body support upon which a pregnant woman lies, face down, and that functions to remove the weight and pressure of a fetus within her abdomen from within her pelvic cavity and adjacent her spine and that relieves stresses imposed on her pelvis and spine caused by the weight and size of the fetus. The support comprises a soft, compressible and resilient body with front and rear ends, laterally spaced sides, a bottom surface and a top body supporting surface. The top body supporting surface has a high rear pelvis support portion extending longitudinal and transverse the rear end portion of the body, a pair of laterally spaced abdomen support portions extending longitudinally forward from the pelvic support portion, a longitudinally and transversely extending downwardly and forwardly inclined chest support portion forward of the abdomen support portions, a low forward longitudinally and transversely extending head support portion at the front end of the body and a central abdomen receiving recess opening upwardly between the abdomen support portions and between the pelvic and chest support portions of the top surface.
