Maternity body pillows

Hi there!

I'm a stomach sleeper and am trying to get out of that habit real quick! does anyone have any recommendations on body pillows?

Thanks so much!

Re: Maternity body pillows

I just got mine at Sears a long time ago (Pre-pregnancy).
I've heard of people using the "Snoogle" (sp?)
But honestly, I rarely use the full body pillow, and instead just find myself placing 3 or 4 different pillows in various areas.

I didn't go out and by one. I just grabbed the extra pillow we have and use that to put between my knees for comfort while I sleep.

Re: Maternity body pillows

The Snoogle all the way... It was the best thing I bought while pregnant. I still use it now...

Re: Maternity body pillows

I am also a big stomach sleeper. I bought a body pillow from bed, bath and beyond and I love it. I can't sleep without it.

I loooooooved the snoogle!!!

Re: Maternity body pillows

The snoogle rocks! Its the only way I can sleep!

Re: Maternity body pillows

I bought the snoogle... but wound up hating it. It took up too much of my bed, so i just use 3 pillows shoved in different areas. Of course i had no receipt for the snoogle, and months went by, and after it taking up most of the space in my closet, i threw it out!

Never thought to ask anyone on this board if they wanted it... so dumb i am!

Re: Maternity body pillows

What is the snoogle, and where can I get one? I'm having such a hard time sleeping. I'm only 19 weeks, and I wake up every morning with a backache. I swear it's from sleeping on my side instead of on my back.

Re: Maternity body pillows

I'll tell you the best thing for me in terms of pillows (I forgot to mention this before)...
The Body Cushion!!!
They are my massage pillows that are designed for pregnancy- It allows you to lie face down!!!!!
So from time to time, I take my pillows out & lay on them for a bit, it really helps release my tense back muscles & my aching spine.
They were mucho $$$, but if you ever get a chance to lay on them, like at a massage session, or wherever, DO IT!

Re: Maternity body pillows

I bought the Snoogle pretty early on and loved it. But now I'm 29 weeks and I'm still using it, but I end up also having to use a bunch of pillows too. So basically I think it's pretty great up until your 3d trimester and then it doesn't work so well anymore.
