Maternity pillows - any opinions?

[PhoebeLaura]

I'm looking to buy a maternity pillow to help me sleep on my left and to ease the pain in my hips which I seem to get from lying on my side. I am currently using a regular pillow between my knees but am finding it a bit cumbersome and would like something designed for the task. I'm thinking of either the Dreamgenii or the widgey baby support cushion which can be used as a breastfeed/baby support post birth. has anyone bought either of these? Opinions would be gratefully received before I shell out good money on a funny shaped cushion...

Thers a syuperlong one they have in costco at the moment, about as long as you,

I have it as although Im only early on I get SPD so am trying to get into a habbit of sleeping comfy now.
Its only about £16 so not a bad price.

I LOVE my Theraline Big V pillow. They're dear (around £40?) but it enabled me to sleep really well through 2 v. uncomfortable pregnancies with hip and pelvis pain, and was used as a baby seat too once ds started sitting up, and a friend has used it for her pregnancy - got her from not sleeping at all to a full night too. It's like a long sausage beanbag which you can arrange between your knees, under your bump and cuddle with your arms, and because of the beans it's easily adjustable. I really hesitated to buy it first time round but it was one of my best purchases.

I've got a C shaped one from Mothercare which I originally bought as a support pillow whilst pregnant. It was nice for putting behind my back to help me sit up straight but I found it a bit cumbersome to put between my knees at night.
However, since my son was born, it's been great as a feeding cushion and he's currently sitting with it behind him in case he falls. Also good for tummy time etc.
Sorry, probably not very helpful at all as it wasn't good for supporting hips but I loved it for everything else so thought I would mention it!

I got one from mothercare - it's very long and can also double as a feeding one afterwards (alhtough i think most of them do). It was £27.99 and I highly recommend it (although my DH might object as he claims I'm taking over more of the bed now!)

Dunelm have synthetic and feather v-shaped pillows for a fraction of the cost of similar ones in Mothercare/specifically 'maternity' pillows. We're still using them almost 2 years down the line(though not for feeding with/sleeping!)
