Pregnancy Pillows Posted: 03-24-08 15:08pm
I'm 20 weeks today, guess that means I'm
half way there right. So I haven't bought
a pregnancy pillow becuase there kind of
pricey and I thought I could just do
without one. Anyway the last few weeks
since my belly has popped out I can't seem
to sleep a good night to save my life. My
back is killing me, leg cramps, and I just
cant seem to get comfortable, so for all
of you experts out there, are pregnancy
pillows really worth the purchase? I mean
I'm willing to spend the money if I'm
gonna get some good sleep out of the deal,
but not if it's just a waste. Any
suggestions?

after too

ditto. a body pillow is awesome and
they're pretty cheap at walmart and easier
than trying to arrange a million pillows
the right way too. i'd def recommend a
good, firm one.

I agree with the other girls - get a body
pillow. Mine saved my life towards the end
of my pregnancy. I couldn't sleep without
it.

i felt the same way, then my fiance bought
me a body pillow, called scoogle, it wraps
in between my legs and over one shoulder
then the part under my legs can be tucked
under my belly giving me a little extra
support, and helped me sleep better at
night too, id get a body pillow, or some
extra pillows to give you support where
you need it when you go to bed.

I just have a regular pillow I put under
my belly and between my legs. They are
like $10 at walmart and pretty big and
firm. I'd die if I didn't have it...
