    I'm not delivering at the hospital, but at a private MW birthing center...and I'm definitely taking two of my fav pillows! I think it may help me be more comfortable too. If your hospital allows it, I think you should bring it just in case it is helpful.

    No.  Mine is borrowed I'd hate to get it soiled.

    I hadn't thought about it, but now I may actually consider it if my hospital allows it!  Thanks for the suggestion!

    I am not taking my snoogle, but DH and I are each bringing at least 1 regular pillow to use.  The hospital pillows are AWFUL!  Ours were tiny, flat and had a plasticy cover on them when I gave birth to DD.  I had to ask for 5 of them to sleep in a decent position. 

    If you want to bring the snoogle, go for it.  The main reason I did not was due to the size of it.

    I was wondering the same thing. I love my snoogle!! I dont no what I would have done without it this whole time. I was kinda worried if I would want it after labor or would I be able to sleep on my side after Labor? I dont no what to do either.. sorry just though I would share that with you lol

    My hospital encourages you to bring your own pillows, so i guess I will do it.  thanks ladies!

    I wouldn't (don't have one) because it is just one more thing to lug through the hospital when checking in.  The first time DH and I went (I got sent home), we unpacked a lot from the bag because it was too much to carry.  I will bring two regular pillows for DH and I.  That's just me.

    Yes!!  I hated not having mine when I had DS.  I could not get comfortable to sleep on my side without it but it hurt my boobs to go back to sleeping on my stomach.  This is my last though so I don't care if it gets yucky.

    I wish, but my pregnancy pillow is quite big and I'd hate to get it ruined so I'll be taking 2 of my regular pillows w/me instead.

    I'm having a c-section and it's going to hurt like hell to roll over, so I won't bring mine. I'm just going to bring my regular pillow because hospital pillows suck. If you do bring your own pillow make sure it is in a colored or patterned pillow case - not white!!
