An infant support pillow having an outer concentric curved periphery and an inner curved boundary, the inner curved boundary being provided with a fabric body wrap comprising a T-shaped member having a fabric leg extending longitudinally therefrom and having transversely extending straps attached at right angles thereto, the fabric leg being adjustable in length and the transversely extending straps being attachable in various positions to an underside of the support pillow to form a seat in which an infant can be placed, the dimensions of which seat may be adjusted to accommodate infants of various sizes, the outer concentric curved periphery and inner curved boundary forming a pair of interconnected curved arms which are adjustable inwardly and outwardly with relation to a central circular opening formed by the inner curved boundary to permit the diameter of the central circular opening to increase or decrease, thereby causing the body of an infant to be elevated in a reclining position or, alternatively, causing the body of an infant to sink into the central circular opening to permit the infant to be held in an upright or sitting position, and the inner curved boundary being further provided with a pocket into which the fabric body wrap may be folded and hidden when not in use.
An infant support pillow comprising interconnected curved arms terminating in rounded ends which are spaced apart from each other to form a generally horseshoe-shaped member, the curved arms having an inner curved boundary constituting an inner circular opening and an outer concentric curved periphery having a series of peripheral recessed portions thereon, the pillow being provided with a fabric body wrap consisting of a T-shaped belt having a fabric leg and two fabric straps extending outwardly at right angles to the fabric leg, the fabric leg having an end attached centrally along the inner curved boundary and a second end connected to the two fabric straps, the fabric leg extending longitudinally from the inner curved boundary to the fabric straps, the fabric straps extending transversely across the pillow, the fabric leg of the T-shaped belt having sufficient length to be received through the legs of an infant and the fabric straps having sufficient length to wrap around the arms of the pillow, the fabric straps having outer ends which are releaseably attached to the arms of the pillow, the pillow being of sufficient size and thickness to provide support for an infant, the central circular opening having a diameter sufficient to accommodate the body of the infant wherein the peripheral recessed portions on the outer curved boundary of the pillow provide various locations at which the fabric straps of the T-shaped fabric belt may wrap around the pillow, thereby allowing for adjustment of the T-shaped belt with respect to the pillow opening, the recessed portions preventing the straps of the T-shaped belt from slipping down the arms of the support pillow when the fabric straps of the T-shaped belt and support pillow are affixed to the arms of the pillow.
