Abstract
A position retaining device for allowing a person to maintain the prenatal position while sleeping. The retaining device has straps passing over the shoulders, and a horizontal strap holding the shoulder straps on the shoulders. Extensions from the shoulder straps provide a pair of sling members in the front, the sling members being such as to pass around the thighs to hold the legs up, somewhat in the prenatal position. A bow knot, for example, can be used to secure the sling members for ready release.
