Pregnancy pillows
Hi mummies, what pregnancy pillows are y’all using? I’m planning to get one to promote sleeping more on my side. Im a back sleeper. #1stimemom
I’m using doomoo’s pregnancy pillow, which can be converted to breastfeeding support cushion later. I’m a back sleeper too. I find it of like ok-ok help cos spend $ alr confirm will try to use. Tho I still feel more comfy on my back. Gynae said it’s ok as long as I don’t feel breathless lying on my back tho. Will help if can prop up some pillows when lying on back, but do check with your gynae too. What I do is I try to hug the pregnancy pillow in a U-shape (with half of it supporting my back) to sleep on left/right side. Then if I toss and turn and find myself lying on my back in the middle of the night, then I repeat again lor. Hope this helps!
Read moreYeah, didn’t think it was necessary to spend on specialty pillows per se. Just used whatever pillows I had at home like bolsters and smaller pillows, cushions to support the bump. Also found using a large towel rolled/folded up provided more versatility to my various position whist trying to get comfy. Also takes up less room on the bed
Read moreI am using the banana shaped pillow but honestly, I would suggest to get the U-shaped instead so it’ll support your belly and your back. I got it from First Few Years in Paragon and it’s cheaper than Mother’s Care. #1stTimeMom here too ✌🏼
Didn't want to spend money on a pregnancy pillow so I just use bolster for my front and a pillow for my back. I toss and turn a lot; sides and back throughout the night and it works well for me.
I love using baa baa sheepz XL pillow. Baby can also use after you give birth. I use it even before pregnancy as a bolster.
I’m using a double wedge pillow. Supports the belly and back, and doesn’t take up too much space.

Personally, pregnancy pillow is a waste of money. To me it’s similar to bolster
I absolutely love Hugsie pillow!
