Pregnancy pillow recommendations pls!

I got one from Amazon but I feel too hot in it, also doesn’t really support my back. The cover was velvet and I’m not happy about it (see pic of what I got)

Suggestions on pregnancy pillows?

Hey guys, I’m 15 weeks pregnant with our first and wondered at what stage did you start using a pregnancy pillow? And what one worked for you? There are so many options, and I wanted to give it a try to get used to it before I really start to need it. Thanks in advance!

Pregnancy Pillow

I have seen a lot of videos of mums to be using a pregnancy pillow however I haven't felt a need to use it yet. I am 26 weeks currently but just wondering if it is really required and if yes then from which week ?

Heated pillows

My back pain is awful due to previous spinal injury- what are people opinions on heated blankets or heated cuddle cushion ? Are they safe to use when pregnant? I was told hot water bottles are a big No 😕

Pregnancy pillow help!

I cannot for the life of me find a pregnancy pillow that doesn’t make my hips/pelvis/lower back WORSE! What is going on 😂 I’ve tried the ones in the pics. The Frida Mom one I just don’t understand at all, feels like it provides no support. The small one feels unreal but I wake up more sore than I would usually be.…

Maternity pillows

Desperate for a decent maternity pillow, the one I have is the huge one that is like a large “U” shape. It’s too big for me. I just want weight off my bump/hips and a back part to stop me rolling over so much. Any suggestions on tried tested successes? Thank you ♥️♥️

Pregnancy pillow recommendations

Hello, time for me to buy a pregnancy pillow. Do you have any recommendations? Not looking to spend more than £50. I don’t want a huge one but I need something that supports my back and inbetween my legs when I’m side sleeping. Also something that prevents me from rolling onto my back. Thank you!

Wedding

I am 39 weeks and heading to a bestie’s local wedding. None of my nice shoes fit me, and I don’t want to be uncomfortable in heels anyways. This leaves me to wearing ugg boots (and knockoff ugg boots at that) with my dress. How bad is this…?
