Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - PB2-1 prototype
Treatment: Devices - PB2-2 prototype
Treatment: Devices - PB2-3 prototype
Treatment: Devices - PB2-4 prototype
Treatment: Devices - PB2-5 prototype
Treatment: Devices - Ajuvia-Active
Treatment: Devices - Ajuvia-Passive

Other: Control - The first night will be a control night with infrared video recording where only the Ajuvia sleep monitor is worn in passive mode so that each participant can act as her own control for comparison of treatment effect on outcomes.

Experimental: PB2-1 - During this night, the PB2-1 prototype will be worn with the Ajuvia in passive mode.

Experimental: PB2-2 - During this night, the PB2-2 prototype will be worn with the Ajuvia in passive mode.

Experimental: PB2-3 - During this night, the PB2-3 prototype will be worn with the Ajuvia in passive mode.

Experimental: PB2-4 - During this night, the PB2-4 prototype will be worn with the Ajuvia in passive mode.

Experimental: PB2-5 - During this night, the PB2-5 prototype will be worn with the Ajuvia in active mode.


Treatment: Devices: PB2-1 prototype
PB2-1 prototype is a belt-like wearable device similar to the original PrenaBelt designed for pregnant women that permits supine positioning of the pelvis but, when in this position, provides subtle pressure points to the user's body and thereby activates the body's natural mechanism to reposition itself to relieve discomfort. It is expected to significantly decrease the amount of time a pregnant woman's pelvis is in the supine position overnight while promoting comfortable sleep.

Treatment: Devices: PB2-2 prototype
PB2-2 prototype is a belt-like wearable device designed for pregnant women. When placed on the woman's back, this device prevents the pelvis from achieving a supine orientation by maintaining at least fifteen degrees of right or left lateral pelvic tilt. It is expected to significantly decrease the amount of time a pregnant woman's pelvis is in the supine position overnight while promoting comfortable sleep.

Treatment: Devices: PB2-3 prototype
PB2-3 prototype is a belt-like wearable device designed for pregnant women. When placed on the woman's back, this device prevents the pelvis from achieving a supine orientation by maintaining at least fifteen degrees of right or left lateral pelvic tilt. It is expected to significantly decrease the amount of time a pregnant woman's pelvis is in the supine position overnight while promoting comfortable sleep.

Treatment: Devices: PB2-4 prototype
PB2-4 prototype is a belt-like wearable device designed for pregnant women that prevents the user from achieving a supine position as the device allows right and left lateral pelvic tilt but prevents the user's pelvis from settling supine due to virtue of its design. It is expected to significantly decrease the amount of time a pregnant woman's pelvis is in the supine position overnight while promoting comfortable sleep.

Treatment: Devices: PB2-5 prototype
PB2-5 prototype is a belt-like wearable device designed for pregnant women that does not provide positional therapy. It can be worn anytime as a maternity support belt.

Treatment: Devices: Ajuvia-Active
Ajuvia Sleep Monitor senses the user's body position and can be used in passive or active mode with or without the PB2 prototypes. In the active mode, it alerts the woman when her pelvis is in the supine position through a gentle vibratory alarm.

Treatment: Devices: Ajuvia-Passive
Ajuvia Sleep Monitor senses the user's body position and can be used in passive or active mode with or without the PB2 prototypes. In the passive mode, it measures and records the position of the pelvis but does not alert the woman.
