Maternity Pillow!?

iloveluson19

I've been sleeping barricaded in pillows and sometimes still find myself uncomfortable. Has anyone purchased a maternity pillow, love it or hate it, worth it or not?

Omg a coworker lent me hers, completely outta the blue and it changed my life. I'm serious. One of those giant C-shaped ones where you curl up on your side with your head and hips supported. I have endless (ENDLESS!) back and neck problems-even my chiro is fascinated by my unending pillow issues-and BAM! this pillow shows up in my life and it's completely different. Seriously, she may have to issue a warrant for its return after DS is born.

I've got WalMart's version of the Snoogle (same manufacturer- Leachco; same shape; different color - not sure if there are or are not any other differences).  It's been a lifesaver in helping me and my husband sleep.  When I gave in and bought it, I was waking both of us up every night by rolling onto my boobs, hurting them, and trying to readjust.  

Anyways, the main benefit for me is that it generally keeps me kind of positioned well while I sleep.  I've been cuddling up to it more since my hips started hurting, and that's helped, but I'd say more than not it forces me to sleep on my side.

I use a Snoogle and really like it. I got it kind of early in my pregnancy so it's hard to say if I notice much difference in it's effectiveness but I'm sleeping fairly well so it must do some good. I also put a body pillow on my other side so I have support all around.

I got a a snoogle as a gift around 13 weeks and would be utterly lost without it.

Thanks ladies! You have definitely all sold me on it... And from tossing and turning all night! =D>

I was given a hand me down Snoogle. I can't live without it.

I ordered a regular body pillow from Amazon. Cheap and it does the trick so far.

I have had a Snoogle for 3wks. It's a godsend. Buy a pregnancy pillow, you won't be sorry. I would recommend the c-shaped ones. I had a regular body pillow prior, and there's no comparison IMO. I'm not sure about comparison with other pg pillows though. If you get one, enjoy!

Give me all the pillows!!! Seriously, I have the snoogle and a king size body pillow, as well as regular ones. I use them all. :P

I used the snoogle last pregnancy and loved it for the most part but it does make me sleep warmer and takes up a lot of space. I have managed without to this point but the cover is currently in the wash and will be used starting tonight. I have been still doing some tummy sleeping but the last week that option has vanished and sleeping has gotten awful. Hoping that the snoogle will solve my problems this time like it did last time!

I have the giant u shaped pillow now. Last pregnancy I used the snoogle & I got twisted because I had to adjust a lot still. This time it's easier because I move & the pillow stays in place. I went to physical therapy & they suggested a rolled towel to support my belly & back (rolled on each side flat in the middle) & that helps a lot too!

I was gifted a snoogle and I LOVE it! I can't sleep without it. It keeps my legs hip width apart and it keeps me on my side. It has helped me get more sleep at night.

Get a Snoogle. If you have to pay full price, it's worth it and more. But you can use a 20% off coupon a Buy Buy Baby. Best investment I made this pregnancy and I will use this thing long after. I was never one for these types of things but caved when my hips started hurting in the morning. It's wonderful...more than I expected!

I have a hand me down snoogle. It is amazing! I have been sleeping very well between waking up to pee and/or eat.

I was given a Mommy Boppy. I sleep with it every night. I can not begin to tell you how much I love it! I suffer from acid reflux and it helps me sleep on more of an incline and reduces the acid reflux.
