Prenatal Therapist Develops EcoFriendly Pregancy Sleep System

According to a 1998 National Sleep Foundation Poll, 78% of women reported more disturbed sleep during pregnancy than any other times in lives. Further, based on a 2011 study, women who have reduced sleep have an increased risk of c-section and premature births.  No wonder, then, after working with thousands of sleepless pregnant women, founder Julie Robbin’s obsession became her mission.

Julie has created the Lotus Leaf, a pregnancy pillow system designed to cradle a pregnant woman’s body and support her in perfect therapeutic alignment.  Each of the 9 different pillows works together and can be customized for a pregnant woman’s body as it grows and changes.

Starting July 14, LotusLeaf Solutions, LLC will be running a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds needed for production and to let women know they can enjoy a blissful night’s sleep while pregnant (http://bit.ly/lotusleafkick).

“I wanted to run a Kickstarter campaign because it was important to me to that the Lotus Leaf was all about being the best, safest and most environmentally friendly option for pregnant women.  Doing this lets me focus on helping pregnant women enjoy truly blissful sleep while protecting the environment, instead of just worrying about the bottom line.” says founder, Julie Robbins.

Julie admits she had personal reasons for creating the Lotus Leaf: she wanted to make sure she had an early prototype during her own two pregnancies.
