Has anyone already bought a pregnancy pillow?

I am finding myself really struggling at night as I am so uncomfortable because of my sore boobs & how bloated I am 🫣 I’ll be 8 weeks in a couple of days so it feels really early to start buying things like that but I don’t really know what else would help at this stage 🥺

Pregnancy Pillow

When did you get or start using your pregnancy pillow? I'm only 8 weeks along, so I feel kind of silly buying one already. But I'm having off and on light cramps that make sleeping with my legs together uncomfortable, so I've been sleeping with a pillow between my legs. Do you think a pregnancy pillow would help wit...

Good affordable pregnancy pillow

Any recommendations for a pregnancy pillow I have just about 3 months left so don’t want to spend a crazy amount as I won’t be using it long ( I should have really hit it earlier) . I want it to have really good support

What pregnancy pillow is the best?

I am feeling quite overwhelmed with the amount of pregnancy pillows available and which would be right for me. I see a lot of good things about the bbhugme but it’s quite expensive, Instagram is constantly sending me ads for BellaMoon and the Momcozy F and U shape the reviews say are very hard. Any help would be app...

Looks like I’ve found a use for the pregnancy pillow once I’m done with it

I have 3 pregnancy pillows, this particular one is only used downstairs on the sofa when I need extra support. I disappeared upstairs to change the bedsheets and came downstairs to this one helping himself to my pillow. I can’t bring myself to move him 🥹 this might be his new bed when I’m done using it

Pregnancy pillows

Hey, are you using pregnancy pillows yet? I have slept on my back forever but according to things I’ve read I shouldn’t be after the first trimester. That is going to be a challenge! If you’ve got a pillow what ones would you recommend?

Pregnancy pillows

I didn’t need one for my first pregnancy, but this second one is killing me off slowly, I’m always uncomfortable. Can anyone recommend any pregnancy pillows that don’t break the bank? Or is it worth spending £50+ on one?

Breastfeeding pillows

Anyone have any suggestions on a breastfeeding pillow? Overwhelmed by all the options, I just know I want the cover to be cotton, so that it’s breathable for baby’s skin.💗

Pregnancy pillow

Does anyone have one and if so do you like it. This is my second pregnancy and I’m having the worst time trying to sleep I can’t get comfortable and when I do fall asleep I’m waking up so much and then I’m up 3-4 hours before my son wakes up so I might be getting 4 hours of sleep a night total. If you do have one w...

Pregnancy pillows

Ladies, what’s everyone’s sleeping situation? I’m 25 weeks tomorrow and still manage to sleep on my belly / side, and feel like I’m not desperate for one, but wondering whether people have already purchased their pregnancy pillows and how they are finding them? At what point did you feel like you needed one?
