Pregnancy Pillows VS. The Wedge

Hey June Mamas! So we just hit the 20 wk mark with Bebe #5! I’m already getting asked “when I’m due?!?!” (Thanks ppl, I know I’m big lol), 38 yrs young, 5’4” and weighing in at about 172 now (heaviest I’ve ever been… was already “preciously plump” 😜). This one was a sweet surprise so we have had to start all over again with the baby purchases… meaning I had gotten rid of the single pregnancy sleeping wedge I used to use. Like probably most of you at this point, sleep is getting interrupted by not only potty visits, but also the typical uncomfortable side sleep (can no longer breath on my back!), sore hips, and stressful dreams that come from lack of oxygen when I do roll onto my back. I currently sleep between two body pillows, but bc they move out of place, I still end up on my back… ENTER DISCUSSION Q: trying to decided if I should purchase one of those giant “u” shaped pregnancy pillows (which could also double as a nursing pillow later similar to a boppy) OR, should I go simple and just get another wedge or two? Do any of y’all find yourselves still ending up on your back with the big pillows? Would LOVE to get some better sleep if at all possible!!
