What I Wish I Knew Before Sitting on 12 Cushions to Fix My Pain
Meet the Founder of SunCloud®
Hi, I'm Babette — founder of SunCloud®, cushion designer, and someone who's lived through years of chronic pelvic pain starting at the age of 5 trying to find a way to sit without flinching.
After enduring endometriosis, nerve discomfort, and countless frustrating moments, I stopped waiting for the perfect cushion… and made my own.
The Journey
I tried it all.
Gel. Memory foam. Donut rings. Orthopedic whatevers from Amazon. You name it, I probably sat on it (and regretted it). Each cushion promised relief, but most left me feeling like I'd just wasted more money — and made my pain worse.
Eventually, I started taking notes, tweaking materials, and combining everything I wished the other cushions had. Turns out, if you want something done right… well, you know the rest.
What I Learned (the hard way)
- Not all memory foam is created equal. Some flattens faster than a pancake on Sunday morning.
- Support matters more than softness. It’s not about sitting on a marshmallow — it’s about alignment.
- Straps and portability are game-changers. If it slides or shifts, your body pays for it.
- Custom sizing should be the standard. We’re not all the same size — why are cushions?
The Aha Moment
The first time I sat on one of my own prototypes, I didn't flinch. I didn't fidget. I didn’t want to throw it across the room after 20 minutes. That was my “aha” moment — and the start of what would eventually become SunCloud® Cushions.
Why I Created These Cushions
Simple. Because I was tired of settling for “good enough” — and no one should have to sit in pain just to get through their day. Whether you're managing pelvic pain, recovering post-surgery, or simply want a better travel or work cushion, I created something real, useful, and yes — a little badass.
