I'm going to figure out which one I like best. The snoogle seems pretty big and too firm for me (I'm 5'2) I'm hoping it flattens out a little but that is why I ordered the mini snoogle. I'm hoping that one is a little softer and may work for me since I'm smaller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513921 Sun, 03 Apr 2016 07:32:21 +0000 csross217 2513921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just use a basic body pillow! I think mine is from bed bath and beyond. It's helped sooo much with my hip pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513779 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 19:23:30 +0000 yin 2513779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pinkcupcake: I had that one, and it is ginormous! Despite the size, I loved it! It made sleep more comfortable, and my body ached without it. I let my sisters borrow it, and they didn't get much use out of it (pregnant in the summer). Surprisingly, I didn't have to use it with my second pregnancy. No aches! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513720 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 17:15:39 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2513720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Snoogle immediately made me feel more comfortable, but it was too firm for prolonged use like sleeping through the night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513621 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 13:06:33 +0000 lady baltimore 2513621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved my $10 basic body pillow from Target. Super versatile as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513524 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 09:59:17 +0000 meadow 2513524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't justify the price of a pregnancy pillow and bought a $10 body pillow from target. (Same one linked above.)</p> <p>As long as I put the pillow under my belly when I go to sleep, then it works great. I have it between my knees to help with my hips but also to hold it in place. Very happy with my decision. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513512 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 09:45:19 +0000 erinbaderin 2513512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also hated the Snoogle - it was too big and too firm. I just used a regular body pillow from Bed Bath and Beyond. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513457 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 07:25:52 +0000 Tanjowen 2513457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved and hated my Snoogle. It is the only thing that gave my hips relief but to extract myself at night to use the restroom was an exercise in frustration ( and also literally an exercise, haha!). I needed it because I"m a back sleeper, so it allowed me to have a back support without really being flat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513452 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 06:47:33 +0000 winniebee 2513452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hated the snoogle. Way too big for me (5'2). Second pregnancy, I just used regular pillow in front and behind me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513434 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 02:25:32 +0000 Nutella 2513434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another Snoogle fan here! But your husband might not love it as much as you do - it's pretty much like a third body in bed 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513420 Sat, 02 Apr 2016 00:24:33 +0000 tofuwad 2513420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The u shaped pillows will be more comfortable but they are huge. Seriously huge. If you want to be able to see or feel your SO, don't get a pillow that goes all the way around! My husband was threatened by my snoodle because I snuggled with it more than him! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513407 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 23:23:01 +0000 Portboston 2513407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>snoogle with another pillow on the side where the opening was. My DH lovingly called it the sex blocker :D I almost didn't retire it after DS was born...I loved that pillow!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513404 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 23:11:42 +0000 californiadreams 2513404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Snoogle hands down. I borrowed it free from a friend. Any chance you know someone who has it or is selling ? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513273 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 19:19:52 +0000 Ms. RV 2513273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pinkcupcake: I just used a king size pillow but I absolutely could not have used a snoogle. At the end of my pregnancy I was flipping between my left and right side all the time not because of my belly but because I was too warm! I would go with a U shaped one because it would be easier to switch sides since you could roll over and not move the pillow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-pregnancy-body-pillow#post-2513074 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 14:37:26 +0000 pinkcupcake 2513074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thank you for weighing in, ladies! :) I'm balking at the price, but at this point, i'm so uncomfortable trying to sleep that i'm willing to pay anything :( </p> <p>does anyone know if the snoogle-type is more comfortable than the pillows that are more U-shaped?
