Body pillow? How soon?

Hey ladies!

How far along were you when you started sleeping with a body pillow?

I've always clutched a pillow in my sleep but I got a body pillow around 8 weeks last pregnancy and I've slept with it ever since. So comfortable.

I always regret getting rid of mine after my pregnancies. I'll probably get one for Christmas and keep it forever!

Thanks! I've always had a between the knees pillow but I've been really uncomfortable sleeping.

Any recommended brands?

About a week ago, I picked up one of the huge double ones (shaped like a U, goes around both sides). It was used but only $7. I tried sleeping with it once and it was like having a monster in the bed. One side kept fall off the bed, and I kept not sleeping with it right. So I threw it in the corner and may try the regular kind.

I just have a plain rectangle one- cheapie from Walmart. Not even branded as maternity. DH threatened to make me sleep on the couch for the rest of the pregnancy if I tried to bring one of the giant shaped snoogies to bed- said there wasn't room for him, the cats, me AND a giant human sized pillow. Which is fair enough.

I have been having the WORST time falling asleep lately... I just can't get comfortable and my body feels so heavy. Though I'm only six weeks along, a body pillow is sounding pretty darn good right about now.

Love my snoogle. DH is out of town, thinking of busting that puppy out!

When I can't use hubby as a body pillow (he's in the military so he's out training overnight a lot) I just use his pillow lol. I need to get a good body pillow I left mine at my parents house when I moved out and regret it

I got a snoogle this past week.  Slept with it twice and I LOVE it.  DH wants one now.  DH and I don't always sleep in the same bed at the same time - I work nights, he's days.  I will be busting that giant, pink, perfect Snoogle out every change I get

I'm not going to lie, one of the first things I thought was, "Sweet, I have an excuse to buy a snoogle.".
