I’m currently 15+6 and so obviously don’t have a massive bump yet, but it’s starting to get uncomfortable at night time. I’m getting pains / pulling on the sides of my stomach which I’m assuming is round ligament pain, I sleep with a pregnancy pillow but because my bump is so small that doesn’t really help yet. So I was wondering about a support band for night?
Has anyone got any recommendations or advice as to whether this is likely to help?
Thanks 😊

I personally don't think that would help with round ligament pain but I only used my support band in the day when you are 'carrying' the bump which you aren't lying down.

JoJo do quite a range of support bands

I’m 20 weeks and have been sleeping with a regular pillow beside/under my stomach since 15 weeks and it eases the pulling/uncomfortable feeling hugely. My stomach feels supported and comfortable. I put another pillow between my knees which stops my hips from hurting too. So basically a pregnancy pillow or regular pillows are helping in my experience. I have personally found so far that I haven’t needed to spend money on a pregnancy pillow where normal ones are doing the job for me.
