Hi all

Starting to get a bit uncomfortable in bed and looking for people's recommendations on pregnancy pillows. I'm currently 17+1 and trying to ensure I sleep on my side at night but starting to get hip/knee pain because of this. I have always slept on my front up until now so trying to sleep on my side is not something I'm used to or do I enjoy!

Any recommendations greatly received 😀

I had a U shaped one and loved it. Can use it later on as back support/feeding pillow etc so I think more worth it than the dream genie (?sp) one. The Bbhugme looks lovely but extortionate!

Theraline is the best

I'm 21 weeks now but at 17w went through similar. I bought a dream genie and honestly, I hated it. I also sleep on my front normally and I like to switch sides constantly so having the dream genie pillow in place felt like I couldn't easily turn over and it was so big and annoying!

The best thing I've found is a 5cm mattress topper from argos!
(its this one: www.argos.co.uk/product/4116268?clickSR=slp:term:mattress%20topper:2:23:1 )
Its made my bed really lovely and soft so the hip pain has mostly gone. I also sleep with another small flat old pillow that I cuddle up to and put between my knees.

I loved my Theraline.
