Help me choose a maternity pillow

I think a maternity pillow would be really helpful but I can't decide which one to get - the snoogle or the boppy. I am leaning toward the boppy but I have heard more about the snoogle. Anyone have a recommendation? TIA!

    I think the boppy looks more comfortable... especially for when you get further along, it looks like it kinda hugs you more...

    My sister swears by here snoogle and just purchased one for me. I can't wait to try it. She says it relieved a lot of the pains she was getting from sleeping before.

    Tbh, I'm really happy with a regular body pillow and the Boppy Wedge. Even combined, they're a bit cheaper than either the snoogle or the huge boppy body pillow, and super comfortable!

    I bought a plain body pillow for $10 at Target and it is awesome. I spent another $10 for the super soft cover and it has been the best $20 I've spent!

    I went for the Snoogle and it should be here today or tomorrow (yay!). I only know one person with the Boppy and she doesn't like it, but the Snoogle owners I know like theirs. I figure anything is better than my current sleeping situation of trying to make two regular pillows in to something comfortable.

    One of my friends bought the boppy and 3 weeks later ended up buying the snoogle.  She said the boppy didn't hold its shape at all.

     I've been using my snoogle for 10 weeks now and loooooove it.

    The boppy is less firm than the snoogle.

    I tried the body pillow, figuring I would save some money.  It helped for a week, but then didn't help at all.  I broke down and bought a snoogle (I had coupons for Motherhood and got it on sale) and have slept SO much better.  It's seriously worth the money at full price.

    I have been sleeping with my snoogle every night since I was pregnant with beanie. I loved it so much I asked DH if he cared if I kept using it. It has held up well after 2 years. In fact now I may head to bed to snuggle my snoogle.

    I got a regular body pillow.  Works just fine, and I continued to use it even after my first pregnancey.  Much cheaper too!
