Snoogle vs. Boppy Body Pillows?

bustle

Any experience with either?  I have read reviews on both and they both seem to get mixed reviews, either people love them or don't.  I also thought about going the cheaper route and just getting a body pillow, but don't know if that will work as well. 

I know side sleeping is recommended and have been trying to transition the past few days.  However, I keep waking up and am on my back.  Figured a pillow would prevent me from rolling over in my sleep.  As I progress further though, will I also need something under my belly or between my legs? 

TIA!

I love my snoogle. It is super comfy. DH thinks it takes up too much room though.

I have a snoogle and loved it more once I had a belly.  The only downside is that it seems to lose it's fluff easily in some parts.  I tried using a body pillow prior to getting one, but it didn't work as well.

I've got the boppy and I love it!  I honestly think the snoogle looks like it might be better though.  I only got the boppy because it was in stock and I was desperate!!  Couldn't live without it now!

I have the Boppy and it is soooo NOT worth it.  I think a regular body pillow would have been much better

This is me exactly - including the DH quote.  We only have a queen sized bed, so it does take up some room, but I love it!

You might like the Leachco Back n Belly pillow. It's horseshoe-shaped so you can switch sides without adjusting the pillow.It gets stellar reviews on Amazon, and they're $50 there.

P>Downside is they're big-we have a king size bed and it takes up a lot room. I've had it for a while and TBH, I found it overwhelming (I may try it again soon now that I'm bigger, though)

I kept wanting to like pillows and have just come to the conclusion after trying both of these and a boppy that I hate sleeping with pillows.  I should have known that I wouldn't like sleeping with a pregnancy pillow because I couldn't even get used to sleeping with a pillow between my knees.  So if you don't mind body pillows now or sleeping with extra pillows you will probably like a pregnancy pillow, if you don't like sleeping with extra pillows I would bet that you won't like pregnancy pillows.  The good news is that I bought the pillows from Motherhood Maternity, tried them, hated them and was able to return them, so at least I wasn't out all that money.

I like my full-size Boppy pillow.  I tried some other brand that had a "prevent you from turning over back panel" and I hated it.

Thanks ladies.  I think I will go with the Back and Belly pillow as suggested.  This way I don't have to move the pillow as I shift sides while sleeping.  Plus it has the best overall reviews online.  Thanks again!

I hate the Boppy. It doesn't have enough "fluff", so when I put the pillow in between my legs it goes flat. I would go with the Snoogle.
