Back Story...I confess i love sleeping on my belly, well at least starting my sleep that way. i am trying to get myself to fall asleep on my side but i end up more on my stomach side, DH suggested i get a body pillow now to take full advantage of it and to try and get a better night sleep too...
so ladies in your expert opinion what is the best body pillow without breaking the bank???

this might be more than you want to spend. But I thought i would share because i LOVED this pillow. i was very fortunate as i got to borrow it for free from a friend, but omg, once i started sleeping with it, i couldn't go back. i might have kept it up post partpum but since i had a c section i had to sleep on my back pp and have since returned the pillow to my friend.

it was great because it served as a pillow for my head, belly and between my legs and i could cuddle with it!

I was going to get a Snoogle or something, but I actually was able to figure out how to get very comfortable with pillows we had. I require three every night-- firm one under my head, squishy one hugged to my chest and tucked a little under my belly, thick one between my knees and ankles. So I would say to experiment with extra pillows before dropping the money on a body pillow, but if it turns out you need a fancy one, go for it!

Another vote for the Snoogle. I got mine at Buy Buy Baby for around $60 I think.

The Snoogle is freaking awesome. I just bought one this last weekend and it's so great. A little spendy, but if you break down how often you'll be using it, not bad!

Snoogle was a lifesaver for me while pregnant! I'm a back or tummy sleeper normally, so I really had to train myself to side sleep.

I have a normal body pillow and the Snoogle, and I still prefer my normal body pillow. Reason being that I feel like I'm coiled in a snake when I want to flip over and am using the Snoogle! It's also a bit of a tight fit in a queen with DH.

Snoogle was my godsend. Early on, I would make a little nest so I could still sleep on my tummy. Then later I would use it sleep on my back.

I had the boppy total body pillow - I held off for a while because it was expensive (probably about the same as the snoogle) but it was an absolute life-saver. What could be more worth-it than sleep?!

I have the Snoogle and it's amazing. I am pretty sure it's the reason I am still sleeping so well at 31 weeks. I got mine brand new from NBD for $17.99!

I had a love/hate relationship with the Snoogle. Hated that thing but it was the only comfy way of sleeping in third tri.

Another vote for the Snoogle. I've been using it since I was 13 weeks. I wouldn't be able to sleep without it! My husband steals it when I'm not there, haha.

I got a free snoogle on local mommy's group. It was a bit worn, so I just bought a new cover. Check Craigslist?
