Pillow for arm of person holding a child

Abstract

A pillow for a caretaker's arm for supporting the head of a baby. It cushions the caretaker's arm against the arm of a chair in which the caretaker is sitting while holding the baby. The baby's head can thus be properly supported in a comfortable manner yet the perspiration generated on the baby's head will be absorbed by the pillow rather than being placed in contact with the caretaker's arm. The pillow is tubular to receive a part of the arm of a caretaker. The material of the pillow also is yieldable to the touch. It can be of a standard size which will fit the arms of different caretakers. A typical length of the pillow is 7 to 14", the diameter of the pillow is 4 to 9", and a typical thickness of the pillow when collapsed in a flattened condition is about 1 to 3". The pillow can be made of any suitable material which is soft and which preferably can be washed so that the pillow can be used over and over again. The pillow forms a tube when it is expanded from a flattened condition. In a flattened, stored condition, the pillow is comprised of two side-by-side interconnected layers which lie flat and are juxtaposed relative to each other.
