Hi! I'm new here (to my month board). :::waves::: Smile

I have a question! Beginning just a few nights ago, when I sleep on my side, my arms (usually the one I'm laying on) goes tingly/numb almost immediately. I feel tons of pressure in my hand as well... When I sit up, it goes away...

I have been drooling over the Snoogle and I'm wondering if this will even help.

Has this been happening to anyone else? I guess this would make sense if I were further along and huge... but I'm not sure why this is happening now.

Thank you for your thoughts! Big Smile

I think it helps! I like the long part of the snoogle behind me like this and kind of lean back on it a bit. So I'm on my side, but most of my weight is back on the snoogle. My arms haven't been falling asleep this way.

That's such a good idea. I could see that really helping! Thanks for the suggestion!

Yup! I've had the numb arms too.

Even after I get up from the couch I have a numb foot or leg. Totally bizarre.

I sleep with a body pillow and now a pregnancy pillow and for me, it hasn't helped. I still wake up with my arm asleep or something.

I have really bad neck problems. Osteoarthritis - sleeping on my side has been the biggest problem ever. My hands and arms would tingle and give me lots of problems every time I slept on my sides. My Wednesday appointment the Dr said no more sleeping on my back. So Wednesday night I tried so hard to sleep on my side and was absolutely miserable, my neck hurt so bad in the morning. Yesterday I went and bought the snoogle. I slept on my side almost the entire night. I woke up and did not have any pain in my neck at all. My hands never went numb, it was the most comfortable I have been in a long long time.... I would defintely recommend it. And that was just night 1. I am guessing I will only get used it more each night.

That's wonderful! I'm getting one today.
