Weighted blankets while pregnant

Has anyone used a weighted blanket while pregnant before? Dr Google and the results seem to indicate that weighted blankets are safe enough when pregnant so was considering one to try and help improve my sleep currently as I am struggling to get back to sleep sometimes when I wake in the middle of the night after pee no 15. I hear good things about them so would appreciate thoughts and any recommendations too - they are pricey but I think this is something I would keep using after the baby is born anyway so see it more as a long term investment in any case.

If anyone has used one, I would be particularly interested in your blanket/body weight ratio - apparently the best ratio is about 10% (ish) so if anyone is happy to share I would appreciate that too. I am very much a 'between' weight where the lighter 7kg option would be quite a bit lower than 10% for me, but the 9kg option then seems like it might be too much.
