Pregnancy Pillow Suggestions

I'm looking to buy a pregnancy Pillow but I'm overwhelmed 🤣 there's so many different types. Are there any that people would really recommend? And similarly is there any you would avoid? Thank you.

Pregnancy pillow

I’m 5+4 and already suffering with pain in my back, hips and feeling stretching in my muscles. Has anyone else started using a pillow yet or can recommend any good ones?

Is anyone using a pillow for their LO?

Been considering it for a while now but haven’t got one as it’s been so hot over summer.

If so, which one do you have or are they pretty much all the same?

Pregnancy pillow worth it?

I'm 13 weeks now, I'm using 2-3 pillows around me 😂 they're all good quality & I'm happy with them. Using one under my head/neck, hugging another +/- 1 more behind my back or to elongate the hug sometimes. I cannot substitute the main tempur head pillow as it's most comfortable for my neck issues so is it really worth removing the rest & trying a pregnancy pillow in addition to the head one or this arrangement should work the same?

Pregnancy Pillow Recommendations

Hey!!

Looking for pregnancy pillow recommendations and when do we need to start using them?
I am trying to be prepared, ideally don’t want to spend a fortune but want something decent and supportive.

Thanks in advance x

Pregnancy pillow…

Hiya.

I’ll be 8 weeks on Monday and I’m already considering a pregnancy cushion for comfort during sleep. I’ve already been tossing and turning so much at night and have a habit of ending up of my stomach. Last night I pulled a muscle in my neck and I’m now in agony probably for a few days and have a toddler to look after 😭 is it too early for a pregnancy pillow… would you consider it silly to get one now?

Pregnancy pillow recommendations?

Hayfever tablets in pregnancy

Hi, just curious if anyone else has had the same issue, i went to a pharmacy today to try buy loratadine for hayfever/allergies. But got refused the sale due to pregnancy and getting told that no hayfever tablet is safe for pregnancy and they will not provide the tablet unless prescribed. It has really confused me as NHS website says it is safe etc.

Pregnancy Pillow

I’m looking to buy a pregnancy pillow as I toss & turn a lot and want to get used to sleeping on my side. Any recommendations?

nursing pillows

hi, can anyone recommend good nursing pillows? I'm not looking to sell a kidney to buy them but I'm currently managing without a proper nursing pillow and it's making it pretty hard! baby is only a few weeks and nurses on their side in cross cradle hold. my breasts aren't small (and they aren't as perky as they were pre-pregnancy either!) so most pillows I've been using are actually too tall, if that makes sense, putting the baby too high in my lap above where they need to latch, while leaving my arm holding the breast unsupported.

any suggestions for good nursing pillows that don't cost an arm and a leg please? thank you!
