Pregnancy Pillow?

[Deleted]

I think I want a pregnancy pillow. I'm not sleeping badly now, but I'm sure it's coming.

Preferences? I'm 5'7" and plus sized to start, if it makes a difference.

[ssmjlm]

I just used a regular king sized pillow.

I adore my Snoogle.

My favorite is the pregnancy wedge by boppy. It's enough to lift up my bump when I sleep on my side but it doesn't take up half the bed or make me hot.

[hilwithonelary]

I used a Boppy pregnancy pillow the first time. It was okay, but not great. I had to use a couple of regular pillows in addition to it to get somewhat comfortable. It was destroyed when my water broke all over it, so I invested in a new pillow the second time. It was the best thing ever. I loved being able to flip back and forth without having to rearrange 8 million pillows.

I loved loved loved my snoogle!

[gibbinator]

I love my snoogle, occasionally used in conjunction with a wedge pillow. It wraps around me beautifully and I think it is a big part of why my hips and back fared much better this pregnancy than last when I used an assortment of regular pillows.

I'm 5'3" and slim.

I love my snoogle and I have a target body pillow on the other side of me for when I flip.

If I wasn't already married and the snoogle wasn't an inanimate object, I would have married it.

I just use two standard size down pillows.

Another snoogle lover. DH is going to throw it out someday when I'm not home. I'm 5w pp and can't give it up!

[purplecow0206]

I just used a body pillow and was fine.

Just in case you needed another vote, I loved my snoogle.

All of this.

I had the boppy one and hated it. I borrowed this one from a friend and it's amazing!!

[estrellita]

I use a body pillow to cuddle up to and put between my knees. I'm not sure what I'll do when I have an actual bump though. I really want one of those pillows, but I can't see how H can still sleep in the bed with one of those things!

[osulori]

Another snoogle fan checking in!

[lilac05]

I made a fort with body pillows. My H wasn't a huge fan of the barrier between us, but it worked perfectly.

I just used a regular body pillow on each side & my regular pillow on top. One of my body pillows was super cheap and flattened, so I shoved another body pillow into the case.

I actually still sleep with the body pillow about 1/2 of the time...and can tell when I don't.

Another vote for snoogle. My dh hated it so much because it took up so much room. It now lives on the guest bed, where my pug currently enjoys it.

[brooklyn]

My snoogle was the best thing ever. My H hated it though since I crammed it into our full size bed, along with our cat.

So for the snoogle, it looks like the pillow and cover come separately, so I'd need to order both, right? Is any particular store known for having a good price on them?

We bought the glider already and it reclines. I am kind of tempted to just sleep in that for the next seven months.

It comes with a cover. I used it for my first pregnancy and it pilled pretty bad. I got a new cover this time.

[fortmyersbride]

I use a regular body pillow with a sheex brand cover on it. The sheex cover keeps me from overheating.

[JayhawkGirl]

I got my snoogle with cover on amazon. I loved it after convincing myself a body pillow was fine with my first.

I have the snoogle. I think I am snoogle-challenged because it is really hard for me. I have to look at teh examples every time, and then if I roll over it's all shot to hell and I hav the get example sheet out again, and it doesnt work under the covers because it gets all tangled, etc.

I think I need help. LOL.

[catbear]

Confession: I love my snoogle... and I am still using it 3.5 months postpartum. My husband hates it  (devil)

[lo]

Snoogle 4 life. Although I did need another pillow between my knees as I got bigger. Still using it 7 weeks pp...

It comes with a white cover but I'm going to get a new one next time. Mine is looking kinda dingy, probably from all the excessive sweating and drooling for 9 months (and I did wash it regularly!)

[marie3246]

My snoogle was ok, not worth the money in my opinion. I had to use another pillow for when I flipped and it didn't have enough support between my knees. I think a body pillow would have been the same.
