Can anyone recommend a decent pregnancy pillow whilst in just a double bed 🙈
Trying to limit the chances of me and the pillow pushing the OH out 😂

Don’t bother, they’re too bloody big. I have a double bed and had awful hip pain so got one of the 12 foot ones. It helped with the pain but was such a faff rearranging it in the bed and OH had no space and we both got fed up with it. Baby is a week old today and I used it a Grand total of 3 times throughout pregnancyBlush before giving up and just shoving a normal pillow under my hip. Of course OH could have been kicked out of the bed to make space for it but we didn’t want that

Don't waste your money.

I bought a Dreamgenii. Great concept, but the pillow bits are too shallow.

I went out and bought 2 thick/full/weighty regular pillows. I sleep with one behind me (between me and my OH) to stop me from rolling on to my back.
I lay on my left side with me left leg stretched out and I place the other big pillow in front of me and bend my right knee to bring my right leg up to rest on this pillow. I place a regular size/thickness pillow under my bump for support. It's the only position I can get comfortable in. I also sleep on top of the duvet for extra cushioning for my hips.

I posted this question last week and after some deliberation i got a dream genii - have to say, I love it!! Has made a big difference to my back. I use it in a king size bed and it's fine space wise. Emma's Diary have a code for 20% off at the mo

I’ve got a full-length (5ft?) feather bolster, fits fine in our double bed. I side-sleep with one leg and one arm over it. Because it’s feather it moulds well to the body and doesn’t take up too much space. Doesn’t provide back support but that hasn’t bothered me.

I have a dreamgenii and it has made sleeping a lot more comfortable and I don't wake up with a bad back any more. I have a king size but it doesn't take up a lot of room and would be fine in a double Smile
