Have the body pillows helped any pregnant women?

Question

I am having a really hard time trying to sleep at night. Besides having to get up & peee every hour or two I just can't get comfortable. I'm tossing & turning all night. I was wondering if it would be worth it to get a body pillow? Do they really help? Is there anything else I can do to help me sleep comfortably or am I just going to have to deal with this the next 3 months?

Answer 1

I love mine. My friend said she doesn't know what she would have done without hers.  

Answer 2

i bought one and it helps alot..i still toss and turn a little bit but it really does help! its worth trying

Answer 3

I really really like mine. I put it behind my back and in between my legs so I cannot roll over on to my back - I hate waking up like that because I am so dizzy. However, I just posed a question about nasty hip pain and the pillow doesn't help that. All in all it was a great investment.

Answer 4

Yes the Snoogle helped alot i was on bed rest for 3 months and i don't know what i would have done without it! Also if you have a Banana Par fay Before Bed time it helps keep your blood sugers level so you wake up less. good luck gettin comfy

Answer 5

I went out to Wal-Mart and just bought a regular body pillow and I put part of it between my knees and put the other part behind my back to keep me from rolling onto my back at night. It was a good investment for only $10. Good luck to you!

Answer 6

I got one at my baby shower, it's like and L shape one that is made for me now and will fold into a feeding/holding pillow for Joleen when she's born.  It's the BEST THING EVER!!!.  Sleeping got harder the further along I go but that pillow makes its so much better.  I have it between my knees and legs, under my belly, under my neck, and makes it a million time more comfortable.  I only get up once a night to pee since I got that pillow.

Answer 7

I had one when I was pregnant, and it helped a lot.

I would sleep on my side and position the pillow under my belly for support, and then put the bottom part of the pillow between my knees to help keep my hips in alignment.  It helped me to sleep a lot more comfortably.

Answer 8

I have one.. it wraps around my entire body.. I DO NOT know what I would do without it!

I couldn't sleep without it! It supports both my belly and my back and is so darn comfy. :)

Answer 9

i slept on my side with a pillow between my legs. this helped me.  yes you'll have to deal with it.  sorry and good luck.

Answer 10

my husband spent like 60 bucks on the boppy body pillow, and i hate it. he uses it more than i do. i dont think that there is anything that is going to make u more comfortable than just having the baby. sorry,

Answer 11

i am 22 weeks pregnant and having the same problem. I bought every pillow known to man,and none work. so you will have to tough it out, but at least we will get trained for those sleepless nights!
