Pregnancy Pillow Questions

I have done a search on here about the Pregnancy Pillow, but didn't see anything posted by those in the Multiples pages. (I could have missed it, if so I apologize) Do any of you have a preference? Do they help? Are there some that are better than others? Obviously everyone is different, but I'm just looking for some pointers and opinions. Also, what about Belly Bands? At what point did you start using one, if you used one. I'm pregnant with twins, almost 14 weeks along. I don't feel I NEED either one yet, but am planning ahead. Thanks for the help!!

    I used the snoogle up until 26 weeks and then it didn't help me at all. I haven't used a belly binder so ill be interested to see what other MoMs say. On a similar note i heard that the pregnancy wedge helps a lot as your belly gets bigger to keep the weight off your back, I never got one and probably won't since I'm in the home stretch, but it may help you!

    With my singletons, I loved the snoogle body pillow. However, I hate it with the twin pregnancy! I just use two king size pillows and a wedge pregnancy pillow. I got my wedge for 15 by Boppy on amazon. It is amazing!!!
    I also use the belly bandit Upsie baby support band. It's fantastic. Soft with lots of support and can be used post partum. Highly recommended.
    Good luck!
    Edit: on mobile spelling!

    I am 18 weeks now and got a snoogle a couple weeks ago to replace a big body pillow. I like it because I can switch sides easily without moving the pillow.

    My MFM recommended the prenatal cradle for a brace. It has shoulder straps and is supposed to stay cool. My MFM used it and loved it.

    I have a maternity pillow from The Company Store along with a bunch of random pillows.  I've been using some combo since early - 12w or so?
