Had a pregnancy massage today!

I was a little freaked out and planned to tell the massage therapist that I wanted to lay on my side for the massage and then when I got there I chickened out when I saw the big comfy pg pillow! She said that 99% of women use the pg pillow so I went for it. I am naturally a toss/turn side sleeper so laying on my stomach at 22 weeks was bizarre. I could feel my LO moving around like nuts so it was hard to relax (i thought i was squishing him)! Then we completed the massage on my back (still on the pg pillow) and that felt like heaven. All in all it was a nice treat. I just thought I would share in case any of you ladies are a little nervous about laying on your tummy for a massage too!

    I love my prenatal massages, I get them often.  However, I would NOT recommend going to a place that makes you lay on your side....it is not nearly as comfortable as the belly pillow and the therapist doesn't have complete access for a really great massage.  Glad you had a great experience!

    I had one yesterday and it was wonderful.  I laid on my side and had a big body pillow for support.  In my opinion it was way more comfortable than a normal massage.   I will definitely be going back!

    My birthday is tomorrow and this is what I asked my hubby for.  He had no idea what it was but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised that he finds a place that will do one.
