Body Pillow

Anyone using a body pillow to sleep with? Any recommendations? I am so uncomfortable sleeping through out the night.

Re: Body Pillow

  • I sleep with 2! I just bought two medium weight body pillows from younkers. They = heaven!

  • I've been using a standard one I bought at Target.  I'm a belly sleeper so it helps me to be able to sleep rolled over on my side, but not flat on my belly.  It's working now, but I have a feeling I may need to upgrade to a Boppy pregnancy pillow when I get bigger since there's not much room for a bigger bump.

  • I just bought one from target yesterday and used it last night!  I am a back sleeper so it really helped me stay propped when I tried my side and stomach.  That being said, I chose a really fuzzy cover for it (like a baby blanket feel) and it did get tangled in the sheets a couple of times when I went to switch it from side to side.  I think it will really help me get used to side sleeping though despite the little annoyances.

  • I hate/d my pregnancy body pillow. Makes me soooo hot, plus it's huge & MH gets annoyed with it sometimes (& we have a cal king bed!). I ended up just using one extra pillow between my legs later on in my pregnancy with DS.

  • I'm just using a body pillow from Target for now - I did purchase the Snoggle pillow from Amazon.com and I will probably use that when I get bigger. The body pillow is such a lifesaver, I dont know how I would sleep without it at night!

  • I'm just using one extra bed pillow right now. I have a pregnancy pillow that I like well enough but I burn up using it. I'm hoping when it finally cools off here in AZ and thus cools off in my house (ugh prob not till October) I'll be able to use it more.

    I'm using a Target body pillow. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a pillow and this was a cheap solution.

  • I just have a plain old body pillow (I think from BB&B) that I love!  Works really well for me.  I'm usually a tummy sleeper.

  • I got mine from Kohls last week... between the sale and some kohl's cash I only paid $15 for the pillow and it's case. (The pillow was very fuzzy--like a teddy bear--and I knew I wouldn't like that in this heat right now, so I got a micro-fiber pillow case for it.)

  • I just got the snoogle yesterday and I slept better than I have in months. It totally stopped me from rolling over on my back too- which I've been doing a lot lately. I also had been having back pain when I woke up lately and this is the first day I didn't have any- so although I was hesitant b/c of the cost- it was totally worth it!

     This!  I love my snoogle.  It helps with my back pain and keeps me from rolling.

    I just bought a regular body pillow from Target yesterday, it's perfect for what I need. less than $20 for that and the pillow cover. I used to have a snoogle (or whatever they're called) but threw it out after my last pregnancy because it was pretty worn down. I didn't want to spend $50 on a pregnancy body pillow again.

    Did you get the grey soft fuzzy cover?? I got that one and used it last night, I LOVED it!! Just how soft it was was like sleeping in heaven.

  • I sleep with a plain long body pillow. I tried the Boppy and didn't like it so I went with a less expensive regular one and I really like it.
  • I definitely recommend sleeping with a body pillow. I'm using one that I've had for years now. I don't think I could sleep comfortably without it!! I usually end up putting it in between my knees and pretty much cuddling with it at night. lol
