Re: Can you recommend your pregnancy pillow?

Honestly, I don't use a pregnancy pillow. I have been using one of the throw pillows from our bed!

Re: Can you recommend your pregnancy pillow?

Our regular pillows arent doing it for me, so I think Ill have to invest in a big ol' pregnancy one. I would need one to go around my back and one for between my legs. Im thinking that one that does both would be easier than using several pillows...especially with how often I change positiions. Im having really bad round ligament pains that are keeping me up.

Re: Can you recommend your pregnancy pillow?

I got a body pillow from target, and so far it's pretty comfy. It's hard to turn over with it, cuz I get tangled in my sheet, but so far so good.
I just couldn't afford the $50 snoogles at the moment, so my 8.99 body pillow will do for now.

Ugghhh...

I started out with a throw pillow, then went to a regular pillow, used a body pillow 2 or 3 times but it was a PITA to switch sides because it got all twisted in the sheets.
I still have some problems with a regular pillow doing that as well sometimes.

I decided to invest in a pregnancy pillow from wall mart. I wanted something that went all the way around.

I was afraid I'd have the same problem with the Snoogle that I had with the body pillow so bought this from Wall Mart. It should be in next week!

I'll update you!

I use a king size pillow because when I try to turn over with a body pillow I feel like I'm wrestling an alligator.

I bought the back n belly pillow by the makers of Snoogle. It's flufflier and fatter. Right now it is too cumbersome but I think that is b/c I just don't need something yet.

I use a regular body pillow, but I've had it for years so I'm used to it.

Re: Can you recommend your pregnancy pillow?

Ok:

I picked up the pillow on Friday and used it for the past 2 nights.

it's great! I love that I can just roll from side to side without repositioning a pillow everytime.

My Dh can still fit in the bed (we have a queen)

It seems to give just the right amount of support without being stiff.

Cons: the top where it turns to come back down is a little tight.
My shoulder get kind of stuck under the seem if I'm up to high on the pillow. That's really all I can think of.

Thanks! I went away over the weekend and had a very soft bed in a hotel and woke up with no pain at all. We need a new mattress anyway, so we may try to get a soft one.
