So many different reviews online OP, I went for the Kally Sleep big U shaped one and love it

Two months in it hasn’t lost its shape, supports my back / legs / anywhere and I feel like I’m tucked up in a lovely nest. DH less keen as he’s being pushed out of bed

Bbhugme

[TashieWoo]

Another recommendation for BBHugMe, they aren’t cheap but they’re worth it for the comfort particularly later on, and you can use it post partum too.

I wish I’d bought my BBHugme earlier. It’s fantastic

Another for bbhugme, used it every day since baby was born too. Well worth the investment!

[Firsttimetrier]

Another vote for BBhugme. Expensive but well worth it.

I use it on the sofa, when WFH at my desk, resting in bed and also when I’m asleep. I love that you can make a doughnut to sleep on your front and I’ve not had much of a sore back so far (22 weeks though, so still early days).

Asda! I was all ready to go for a bbhugme as got so uncomfortable that I would have sold my soul to find something that would help me sleep. Heard about the Asda one for just under £20 and decided to try that first and it was great!

I went for bbhugme too (2nd hand as was in as new condition ) and it sorted my painful back instantly. I may keep it beyond pregnancy as it’s comfy!

[yorkshireteaspoonie]

BBhugme. Total game changer, it's so light but so supportive

[GinnyBee]

BBhugme. I'm properly in love with it. It may be my favourite thing in my whole house, and that possibly also includes my husband! 😂

[Fleur405]

I love my bbhugme. Baby is now 4 weeks old and I use it get comfy on the sofa for feeding. I bought it with the intention of selling it post partum but it may be my favourite thing so plan to keep it!

[PartridgeCoop]

Another one for the BBhugme. I take it everywhere with me. I bring it from room to room around my neck like a scarf. I bought it and was disappointed on opening the package - I thought I'd been duped into buying a very expensive oversized beanie baby. After one night sleeping with it I changed my mind - and it only gets better as pregnancy goes on. But I guess it's the only one I tried so who knows if I would have fallen in love with any pregnancy pillow the same way?!

[GrowBabyGrow]

To join in on the bbhugme lovefest, genuinely it is a lifesaver. I've developed PGP and it gives me so much relief. I even took it on holiday! My DH calls in the 'husband replacer' and I cannot imagine sleeping without it

[Firsttimetrier]

@PartridgeCoop I was SO disappointed when I opened the bag as it looks like something you could make cheaper, but it’s a total godsend.

[VeronicaFranklin]

I have a BellaMoon and it's very comfy, doubles up got feeding later too x

[Carebear99]

The asda one is rubbish, I have it. In the reviews some people have said the filling has separated and mine has done this. Thankfully asda refunded me

[CurbsideProphet]

Are any of these pillows good for sleeping upright? I've got terrible indigestion / heart burn that is only kept under control if I don't lie flat 😔 I'm nearly 11 weeks so hopefully would get my use out of it.

[Carebear99]

@CurbsideProphet you are best off work a v cushion. Asda and argos sell them

[TashieWoo]

@CurbsideProphet I use the BBHugMe with a wedge pillow from Amazon to keep myself upright and that works well, I also suffer with heartburn and sleeping upright stops me from waking in the night to be sick, that and Gaviscon before bed.

I have this one from Amazon and it's fab, I do sleep-ins at work and it comes with me 😬 I had a really bad lower back from around 8 weeks - 11.5 weeks so I bought one quite early on and it's been a lifesaver.

Lidl body pillow.

I bought one during my first pregnancy more than 10 years ago. Then bought another 2 (and several cases!) 2 years later when they appeared again. Still sleep with one, one is on the couch and my youngest has the other 1 to stop him falling out of bed.

All still very comfy despite a decade of use/abuse and plenty of washing.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! There are many options out there for pregnancy pillows, but I highly recommend looking into a bamboo pillow. The best bamboo pillow offers a supportive and comfortable sleep experience, which is exactly what you need during pregnancy. Additionally, bamboo pillows are hypoallergenic, breathable, and eco-friendly. Cariloha bamboo pillows are a great option to consider, as they are made with a unique blend of bamboo and microfibers, providing excellent support while also being soft and breathable.

I think the OP will have already bought a pillow seeing as this thread was started a year ago 🙄
