For the past week I can't get comfortable trying to fall asleep, I'm a tummy sleeper but that has to change. So last night I slept on my side and of course I woke up with this lovely stiff neck. So my question is have any of you used one of those pregnancy pillows, do they help??
Re: Sleeping Pillows
I am having the same issue! I have had a stiff neck for the past week and a half. I keep going to yoga and I got a massage which helps but then it is bad again by the morning.
I've heard good things about those pillows but right now I am covered in pillows. One between my knees, two behind my end, and to hug on my side and i am still stiff.
I also have a boppy pregnancy pillow. Everybody else has a snoogle and raves about them but I really love my boppy. It has three separate pillow parts so I can take it apart and customize it how I want. I use the longest part of it to help me sleep on my tummy by wedging it under me so that I'm sleeping at an angle so I don't squish baby.
And when I sleep on my side, I just take the two bigger pieces and put them on either side of me. Usually the head piece wedged under my back to keep me on my side.
Like I said, I really love my boppy. My H even steals it away from me in his sleep when i go to the bathroom at night lol. The only downside is that the fabric is kinda itchy at first but it goes away in a day. But other than that, I think it's fantastic!
This is why I been too hesitate to buy anything. I am 5'1 so I feel they will all swallow me. We also have a queen right now and my hubby is a bed hog and doesn't seem like enough room for it.
Got the Snoogle (full size). It's a little too big for me. I'm 5'2". So it cranes my neck a bit when I'm in it the way the photo shows, and with a sensitive neck, craning for hours is not so good. Also, between that giant pillow and me, there is hardly any room left for hubby in our Queen bed. I just ordered the Snoogle Mini online (apparently NO ONE has it in stock). Hoping that fits my frame better.
Yes - 5'2" and it was Snoogle was taking over the bed. hopefully the mini fits better.
I'm 5'2" and I have a queen size bed too. I bought the snoogle and it's fine in size for me and in bed with us. I have to say I did not love it at first, but it's getting a lot more comfortable now that I'm used to it.... Need time to figure out how to adjust with it at night.
