Might be a silly question, but why do you need pregnancy pillows?? And don't they end up just taking up the whole bed?!

They help support your growing belly and your back. I’ve had mine since 12 weeks (22+4 now) and it really is a god send! Sleeping and getting comfortable in pregnancy becomes harder as time goes on and having a pregnancy pillow helps with feeling more comfortable. I normally sleep on my stomach, and having the pillow has helped me adjust to sleeping on my side.

If you have one of the huge ones that wrap around your body like mine then yes it can take up a lot of room. Mine has a side that is detachable so that I can make more room. I’ve just told my DH he just has to deal with it 😂 Otherwise he would have to deal with a very cranky and tired wife.
