I didn't because I was not in the states but I soooo wish I had one towards the end. And will get one for my next pregnancy for sure.

I used the Boppy Total Body Pilllow. OMG that pillow is a life saver. Even now. I dont know how I'd manage without it!!! It even goes on trips and vacations with me.

I also just have a cheap body pillow. DH hates it though so it hasn't been sleeping with me lately. I will probably go back to using it in the third tri though!

Yep, I had the Snoogle and I looooved it!! I had to stop using it towards the end of my pregnancy because I tossed and turned too much (I got tangled in it, lol) but I really loved it from about 15-34 weeks  DH loved it too and would grab it if he was sleeping in the bed without me. haha

just took a nap with the snoogle... and it was AWESOME! It's a bit cumbersome. But it alligns my hips, and you can lean against the pillow behind you. So supportive.

I just used a body pillow - I even named it - and it was amazing. I always got my legs tangled in it!
Of course even at 40+ weeks I was still sleeping 8 hours straight at night and not even waking up to pee so I probably could have gotten away with not having it.

I LOVE MY SNOOGLE!!! That thing was such a lifesaver! I even bought a second cover for it for the hospital, both when I was on hossy bedrest and during my labor. Best pregnancy investment I made, I think!

I'm cheap so I just use two regular pillows... DH doesn't like it because I have one pillow in front of me, one in back, so I take up a lot of the bed! But I couldn't sleep without a pillow between my legs before I was pregnant, much less now.

I used one pillow behind my head. That was it. I don't know how I made it work. I was up about every hour and I tossed and turned a lot so I figured a giant pillow would be annoying. But maybe I will try one next time. Hopefully we'll have a bigger bed!

I just used regular pillows early on and then my sister got me this peanut pillow from Canada...well, she brought it when she visited in December so I didn't have a lot of time with it but it worked pretty well in those latter stages.
