Snoogle Positions

I’m seeing a lot of Snoogle talk pop up lately, and the position descriptions are interesting - albeit confusing. So I found a handy chart of named positions!

And guess what? Polls are cool. Vote & discuss!

I'm a tummy tuck switch to back to back as I need to roll over at night. I like having something between my legs for my hips and having that support under my belly to stop pulling as I get bigger.

My Snoogle model is a little different (It's the big upside down U shape), but I'm a tummy tuck all the way.  Started off at the double up last night since I'm congested.  Blech.

I think I used “nest  rest” or “the swirl” to sleep sitting up and I put a pillow on top to make it more comfy. Why do my positions have to be the old lady positions though?

I'm currently mostly in the Back to Back, but will probably spend more time in Tummy Tuck as I get bigger.  I haven't tried it in any other way yet.

I'm with @kristah2 -- both tummy tuck and back to back.  I've been using it about half the night now and then getting rid of it and going back to a pillow between my legs.  My hips have been so sore when I wake up no matter how I sleep.

I’ll switch to back to back as sleeping becomes more uncomfortable, but for now I’ve got an unnamed position: it’s beside me and I’m mostly on my stomach but a leg is draped over it and I’m sort of hugging it? I don’t even know what I do. But it works, for the most part.

I’ve been trying to work with back to back to keep me on my side (I’m a back sleeper), but last night I straight up kicked the bottom half of the Snoogle off the bed . (I sleep with my back to the edge of the bed). DH tried out the tummy tuck last night, even though he lacks a tummy.

LOL, this poll is awesome. I start off back to back, but through the night pop over for some tummy tuck action.

I love the poll! I do the tummy tuck, except for I lay on my regular pillow and toss the snoogle over the top of it becasue I am super picky (crazy) about sleeping on a fresh pillowcase every night.

I chose back to back, but honestly I rarely use it. I like the idea of propping up to watch tv. My kids always jump in my bed sometime during the night, so that’s probably part of my reason, but also it gets uncomfortable for me too.

I also sometimes put my head on the top loop (with a pillow too) and then swing the bottom loop under my legs to keep them a little elevated from the knee area. super comfy when you need a break from your sides!

This is cracking me up!  I'm a mixture of most of them!

I bought this pregnancy pillow above. And honestly I think my pillow is more comfortable than the snoogle looks.

My dog prefers a variation on tummy tuck.

@kadeephd lol on the dog photo. I forgot to say that I think my dog enjoys my snoogle more than I do.

@kadeephd So cute! 
@asun123 Mine is EXACTLY like that except not square at the top, it's curved!

I'm so excited to breach out the snoogle!  Not sure what I was waiting for!  Mostly need it for Back to Back at this stage, then the Tummy Tuck once the bump gets bigger

I just ordered a cover for mine and I cannot waaaiitttt for it to come in. I've been holding out because i didn't want to spend the money, but my IL's gave me an Amazon gift card for my upcoming birthday! 

It's a bit embarrassing how excited I am to bust it back out. I didn't use it with a cover with DD, but it's been sitting in my office collecting dust and who knows what else. The tag says do not wash (has anyone washed theirs?), so I figured I'd better zip it up in a cover.

Honestly I just got a cheap body pillow at Target last time, and used it basically in the tummy tuck position. Only I use a regular pillow for my head. I’m with @katy0990 on needing the pillowcase under my face to be fresh.
