I didn’t take my big one with my first but I did take a looser breastfeeding pillow and used it behind my hips and a little straight neck pillow. I used the breastfeeding pillow like a less plump hemorrhoid pillow for the first 2 months or so postpartum. That’s what I plan on taking with me to the hospital as I am likely to sleep elevated on my back for the first 2 weeks or so.
I took my bbhugme with me last time and it was a godsend! I had a c-section and I could wrap it round the front of me to rest the baby on and I also used it to block the gap to the side of me at night so I could lie on my side with baby in my arms. Def taking it again this time (my partner did eye roll at walking in with it and the suitcase 😂)
I’m taking my regular pillow and my dockatot nursing pillow 🤣 if I could take a quilt and my own bedding into hospital with me would!! Deffo take your pillow
I never took anything first time, I was that exhausted I’d sleep standing up 😅
I deffo would, just been released and I only had one pillow the whole time I was there. Plus if it's anything like my ward my husband was only allowed to stay 2 hours in morning and night so first overnight with baby was difficult and was so sore x
I took mine with both! It’s a god send 😅
I've found there's not that much space on the beds, I'm having a section so planning on taking a travel pillow to sleep while sat up slightly
I didn’t even think about that but that’s an amazing idea 🤣 I can’t get comfy without it my partner despises it hahaha it will not be going in the bin when baby arrives no way 🤣
