I'm up to 5 pillows now at night and I really think I should get either a body pillow or a pregnancy pillow. Just a regular body pillow would be much cheaper. But the pregnancy pillows do look awfully comfy. Are they worth it? What brand?
I'll be getting money for my bday so I might splurge and get one of the pricey ones, but I dunno.

I'm getting a body pillow, I've herd that the pregnancy pillows are a waste of money and body pillows work just the same. Right now I'm only using one pillow between my legs at night though.

I used with Ryan a normal bed pillow wedged under my bump, they do just as good a job as any other pillow!!

I never got uncomfortable while sleeping so I'm no help. I did have a boppy brand pregnancy pillow that I used between my legs. I used that and one regular pillow for my head.

if you do splurge, buy through Baby Depot at Burlington Coat Factory instead of Babies R Us. Much cheaper

I use 4 pillows now to get as comfy as I can but with all the bathroom trips, etc I'm not sure there's any real way to be totally comfortable.

Are all the body pillows the same? I was thinking about the one at Target. I think it's only $10 and then another $10 for the cover.

I had a snoogle. It's really nice because you can have a piece under your head, between your legs, and pressing up against your back. It was hard for me to pay $54 for a PILLOW but I don't regret it.

Oooh, well that may clinch it. I want it squishy! I think I'll get the one at Target and see how that goes.

Yah plus the one at Target it super cheap so you won't really be losing out much if you try that first!

Yep, the Target body pillow is totally what I got, too! I've got my regular pillow under my head and then the body pillow goes under my breasts, belly, and then between my legs - BLISS!

I just use hubby while I am falling asleep lol. I put my leg up on his leg. Once I'm a sleep I'm alright. If he's not there when I fall asleep I use the boppy pillow. Put it in between my legs and under my belly but I'm a tiny person haha.

I've started using a small square cushion this week. I'm a left side sleeper, and i lie with mye left leg straight and my right leg bent up at the knee, which I rest my knee on my little cushion. I see to get quite comfy with this. I don't really want to buy a preggy pillow, they're quite expensive over here.
