those are a couple older threads.

i have heard good things about the V pillow, the snoogle nest, and just getting a bunch of pillows everywhere. i think each woman is different.

good luck!

For my first pregnancy, I had just a long body pillow, and a little wedge from Boppy that I put under my tummy. For this pregnancy I used a V pillow, and it was awesome. Dh hated it though, said it kept getting in the way and "who IS this guy?" Couldn't wait for my pregnancy to end so he could kick it out.

I love my Leachco Back 'N Belly (at amazon). It is like a double snoogle, so I had support on both sides and didn't need to rearrange anything when I flipped over in the middle of the night.

With my first pregnancy, I just used a bunch of regular pillows. I decided to treat myself this last time around. So worth it! I brought the BNB pillow to the hospital too and now use it to snuggle with the baby in bed. It's our little nest. :)

It is very comfy for me. My friend has the same one, however, and thinks the head part is too poofy for her. I liked it in pregnancy because I had heartburn and I propped myself up pretty high with pillows.

LOVED my V pillow and ended up getting two of them--one for my head and back and one for my front. It was awesome. I tried the Leacho in my first pregnancy and it was just too heavy and I like sleeping on my left side with my lower arm under the pillow. But the pillow was heavy enough that I always felt like the arm would fall asleep. But I know it worked great with other women--so it may depend on how you like to sleep and your body shape/size, etc. One of the reasons I loved the V was because it was very lightweight, but still extremely supportive.

I was planning on getting the Back n Belly Pillow because I like to switch sides pretty frequently and I didn't want to have to shift a big body pillow around. I liked that it had two sides and had the head support...

I ended up buying a Nova Memory Foam mattress topper for our California King bed at Costco. My Chiropractor recommended it to me and so happy he did. I'm 26 weeks pregnant with twins (abdomen is measuring at 32 weeks) and I don't know how I'd live without it. I love that it forms to my entire body and I never feel my belly "hanging" or sore hips etc. Very relaxing and comfortable no matter which way I'm laying or up at night reading a book. DH loves it too! I also like the fact that we will be using it after the pregnancy. That would be my recomendation! ;)
