I got some money for Christmas and thinking about buying myself one. I had one last pregnancy, think it was a summer infant one but it was pretty huge, took up so much space in bed. I'm not sure what ones are best , seen so many different shapes!

I’ve got the John Lewis v shape one and I love it. It was a lot cheaper than others I’ve seen and now I carry it everywhere with me. X

I have the dreamgenii brought it in my first pregnancy and using it again this time round. I really like it and like that it doesn’t take up too much space in the bed, I also used it as a breast feeding pillow after I had my first.

I recently got the Queen Rose pillow from Amazon and it's incredible. I'm only 13 weeks but I have chronic back issues that have become so much worse in pregnancy. I can finally sleep on my side without pain.

It's huge, so maybe not great if you're sharing a small double, but we manage and my OH is not small.

I have a Greamgenii after it was recommended to me for SPD but I can't say it's helped much. I can see why it would be good for back and bump support and I intend to use if for breastfeeding but would recommend one with a bigger leg support if you have any hip pain.

That was supposed to be *Dreamgenii

Thanks all, I've been googling all day and settled for this one ! It's a similar shape to the one I had before and doesn't look too huge so hoping I'll like it ! Plus I love the air balloon print :)

I did almsot go for a dream geni but I wasn't sure after reading some reviews that they weren't great for larger sizes as you can't adjust the middle section where your back lies? I'm like a size 14/16 so wasn't sure if it'd be too snug

I have a similar one to the one you’ve purchased (By Carla in Morhercare) and it’s brilliant
