Which husband replacement?

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
i must get a real pregnancy body pillow like a snoogle. i have a long body pillow now but it's just NOT cutting it. i keep rolling onto my back while asleep and i am starting to worry about cutting off blood to the baby. anyway.....if you have one which did you get and how's it working for ya? there are several different ones. i definitely need one that will support me in not rolling on my back and several look as if they would work. i wasn't going to get one since we only have a queen bed and the body pillow already takes up 1/4 of the bed but i think i NEED one.

This is the one I have, and absolutely LOVE IT!!!

It does take up a lot of space, and hubby thought it was going to relegate him to the couch, but he's finding it nice to snuggle up to, too! I also use it as a back support if I'm sitting up in bed, and when used as a back support, the "legs" can be wrapped around your waist and can serve as a boppy pillow for nursing baby!

Anyway...love love love it!

AND, it's rather cheap considering how big it is!!!

I have a snoogle, which I love, but I am a little jealous of 2boyzmama's HRU. I just use an extra pillow on the open side of my snoogle. I like that the snoogle is easy to pull up in between my legs.

I just got a snoogle, the C-shaped one. Last night was the first night I slept on it. I found it to be really cozy. Didn't want to get out of bed this morning. I like that it didn't seem as bulky as some of the other designs out there. We only have a double sized bed, so anything bigger really would have left DH on the floor. He was joking last night that as long as I leave him at least the square footage of a thermarest(his favorite camping sleep pad) in the bed, he's fine. I think the Today's Mom pillow looks good too, if you have a larger sized bed to fit it. The snooogle can be wrapped around in different ways for sitting up in bed, for nursing while laying or sitting, so its got some versatility and you can potentially use it for more than just the next 3 months. I think you'll be happy with whatever you choose.

My husband is begging me to get on of these ever since I woke him up at 4am to give me a massage.

They just seem so expensive, yk? But all of the reviews say that they are so worth it.

I have the Boppy Cuddle Pillow:

They also have a longer, full-body edition that I've been thinking about picking up:

I really like the cuddle pillow, but it doesn't seem like it would prevent rolling over. I'm SO SUPER JEALOUS of 2boyz' ginormous body surrounding pillow - that looks like it would really help what you're talking about.

i have the same one as 2boys and i love it. it is big but worth it. things i like about it are that it is contoured in the exact right places. it comes in at the parts that go under my belly, between my knees and under the small of my back.

also because i move so much these days, its great to just roll over and not have to flip a pillow to the other side also.

my dog enjoys cuddling up in it as well
