Snoogle or boppy?

Armstrongbaby · January 2014

I'm only 17 weeks but sleeping is already really uncomfortable. I'm looking to buy a body pillow and the snoogle and boppy body pillows seem to be the most popular. Any of you ladies have any suggestions?

I just use a regular body pillow and I love it!! And it was only $9.99 plus $9.99 for a soft fuzy cover that helps me stay warm at Target!

I love my bump nest pillow

I haven't tried either one but DH bought me a regular body pillow a few weeks back and it seems to work pretty well so far.

My body pillow is too flat so I just bought a boomerang. It was at shopko. Shaped like a boomerang. It was 19.99 on sale and looks similar to other more spendy ones. But it's -50 wind chill and I forgot it in my car. So will have to keep u updated.

I'm also 17 wks and have started using my Boppy one! Very comfy, and doesn't take up *too much space.

I have the snoogle. It's pretty big and takes up a lot of space. I like it, except that it's really hard to move and I tend to flip over a lot when I sleep. I would say if you don't move a bunch or get up throughout the night, then it would be good for you.

The only one I have/tried is the snoogle and I love it! My DH tries to steal it from me sometimes cuz it's so comfy!

I use a hot pink unicorn body pillow that I'm pretty sure is actually meant for children. I named it Paulina.

I got a snoogle for Christmas and I love it. It is big but so comfy!

I have a full-body pillow from my first pregnancy that I love, and 3-years later it's pretty flat and I need a new one. Last week I bought a snoogle, and I hated it....I tend to flip side to side during the night and it was difficult to do. I just bought the Leachco full-body one and will be trying it tonight!

My parents got me the boppy pillow for Christmas but I haven't needed to really use it yet. I've used the stomach pillow once and it made sleeping on my side more comfy.

We have a king size bed so I just used the king size decorative pillow for support last night. Loved it. Best sleep I've had in weeks and not so awkwardly shaped that I couldn't move around. 16 weeks tomorrow

I love my boppy body pillow!!!
It is easy to roll around with and does not take up the whole bed. It's soft but still firm enough to give you the support you need. I'm 18 weeks and can't sleep without it now.

I was looking at getting the Snoogle mini. Does anyone have this one? I have a Queen bed and think that the regular Snoogle may be too big. Plus, I turn a lot at night.

I received the Snoogle for Christmas and it is my new best friend. That thing travels with me from bed to couch everyday. I like all the positions you can twist it into and use it a variety of ways (sitting up on the couch, twisted up to lie at a 45 degree angle when heartburn is bad and definitely snuggled up to it the long way while I sleep.

I tried the boppy and it was alright but I didn't like have 3 separate pieces. I then got the proogle which is Toys R Us brand and is j shaped. Its ok but I tried a regular body pillow and like it better because I move around a lot. I honestly think a couple of regular pillows and a body pillow will the way I go. I just like to switch positions too much to keep flipping the big j shaped pillows around.

We have a Q bed and the regular. I turn a lot too but don't move it - I alternate between having it behind me and hugging it in and then when I turn it's in front of me and hug it. You can still put a leg over it either way.

I have the Comfort-U. It's so comfy and keeps me (most of the time) from rolling onto my back since it goes on both sides. I can also rollover in it and lay on the other side if I want. It's the best! I got it really early on because I'm a stomach sleeper and wanted to start training myself to sleep on my sides, and even now I'm still not fully comfortable doing it, but it's getting easier.

I got the snoogle mini for Christmas. I'm on the fence about it. I'm 5'5 and honestly it feels just a bit too short for me. But I also don't go into the fetal position when I use it - I find I'm stretched out, which might be why it feels short. I'm now debating between getting the regular snoogle or a body pillow. I have been sleeping much lighter than I used to and will wake up to flip onto my other side. With the snoogle mini it takes a bit of focus (and some actual effort) to flip it over with you, which ends up waking me up even more. So plain body pillow might be the direction I'm headed.

I think mine is Leach brand or something like that. It goes in both sides so I can flip without moving it. We have a king bed so it's not a problem but it would be a tight fit for a queen, I think. Husband calls it my nest. I love it.

haha I have been using my body pillow too, it is great if I didn't wake up off the pillow and have my two cats all curled up on it. LOL I guess they think it is their pillow.
