MOYOAMA Hysterectomy Pillow Post Surgery for Hysterectomy Recovery Must Haves- Surgery Pillow for Abdomen, Abdominal Pillow Post Surgery, Abdominal Surgery Recovery Pillow for Hysterectomy Gifts

This pillow was a lifesaver after my hysterectomy. It came with a hot/cold pack that fit in the pocket for some additional comfort. It was very helpful at nighttime. It helped me comfortably sleep. I also used it when in the car as a barrier between my stomach and the seat belt. The pillow came with straps that could be used so you can walk around hands-free. You could also put your phone in the pocket as well.

This was an absolute lifesaver! I used it on the ride home from surgery and follow up doctor appointments to protect me from the seatbelt. I also used it when sitting in the sofa or recliner to protect me from an overly enthusiastic and entirely ungraceful cat. It helped with pain to have something to hug to my abdominals when I coughed or sneezed, or got up and down from the bed/being seated. The straps are comfortable and adjustable, also amply sized for those of us gals on the extra curvy side. The small pocket proved handy for keeping the tv remote and phone with me when it was not holding the included ice pack (which also came in clutch). The large pocket worked great to hold a small heating pad or one of those larger soft ice packs. The fabric itself is lightly fuzzy, soft and snuggly. I have only spot cleaned it, but it looks like it would hold up well should I need put it in the washer. Though I would probably put it down in a mesh bag and use a cool gentle cycle (hang dry!) to protect the elastic straps. There is a zipper to remove or add stuffing as needed. Of all the things I purchased to make my life easier while healing, this pillow and one of those grabber reach extender things were the most helpful. I probably could have done without everything else, to tell the truth. So here’s where my story differs from most: It’s a year later and I am fully healed from my surgery. The pillow looks no worse for wear and I have definitely gotten my money’s worth out of it. Most shockingly, I actually still use this pillow on a frequent basis. I certainly did not see that one coming! I like gaming on a Steam Deck. If you’ve ever played one, you know they’re heavier than many handhelds and pretty brutal on your wrists and arms for lengthy gaming sessions. This pillow is a perfect rest for that console on my lap and makes gaming for hours quite comfortable. No more wrist pain. :) I even find myself grabbing it when using lighter controllers, or reading a book. It’s just that comfy. So yeah, perhaps we have a new marketing niche for this pillow? haha.

I got this pillow a couple days after a hysterectomy and oh my goodness did it make a difference, the fabric is so soft! Reminds me of a minky blanket, it had just the right amount of padding for me. Anytime I'd cough, sneeze, or laugh I have to brace myself. This pillow worked perfectly for it, super squishy too. The heat pad pocket keep the hot/cold pack in the perfect spot for where my sutures are, the straps helped for when i was walking to keep it in place too, and the pocket infront was awesome for keeping lipsol and snacks in. After having it, I'd make sure if anyone i know is having a hysterectomy or a section I'm getting them the pillow! For me that's saying alot cause I've never been one to in a sense snuggle a pillow on the couch, but now I can't help but snuggle it and I don't think I'll ever be without it!

A must-have for hysterectomy recovery. So soft and comforting. I never used the pocket or the straps, so I could have bought a simpler version of this cushion, but it was a life-saver. I lay on my back and put the pillow on my stomach and felt instantly better. It really supported my recovery.

I was told by a friend to purchase a pillow to use on my abdominal area after my Laparoscopic surgery. As I reviewed many I choose this pillow. I must say I have no regrets. Let me tell you why this one stuck out after reviewing many options. I liked the fact it came with the hot/cold pack. This pack has it's own pocket in the pillow which was great it stayed in place while covering the area I needed. ( I did use a plastic bag in the pocket while using the cold pack just so the pillow didn't get wet.) Then you have the pocket on the front side which is great to put things in so you can keep things close by you so you don't have to get up or reach to far,like the phone, remote a snack, note pad a pen. You get the idea. Behind the front pocket is a place you can put your hands to apply as needed for coughing, sneezing, laughing, or just keeping your hands warm, or adjusting the pillow if needed. The pillow has loose filling inside so you can adjust to make you comfortable without buldged areas. Love the straps one for the neck with adjustable pad, and one strap for the back to keep pillow secure to the waist. Both straps are adjustable as well as elastic, and can be removed as well. You can use one or both straps at a time or just use the pillow. You should take in the car to use under your seat belt.This pillow seems to be well made and washable. It's great if you have small children or pets to protect that area from being bumped accidently. This is well worth the purchase and can be used after recovery as well. I would buy it again.
