Nursing pillow

My sister in law suggested getting a nursing pillow as she used hers all the time but I’m not sure which one to get. Some from Amazon have mixed reviews (poor quality, not firm enough for a newborn etc) and others are really expensive and I’m not sure if they’re worth the money. Has anyone used one or could share ...

Pregnancy pillows

I know it's super early but has anyone bought one yet? I've been struggling to sleep for 2-3 weeks now and get a lot of round ligament pain on a night I prefer the look of the small ones that go front and back with a knee pillow but unsure if those are comfy or if the bigger L or U shaped are best

When is the time to start using these I’m only 16 weeks but my sides are starting to ache and last night I kept dreaming my sides were being pulled, is now the time for extra support?

38 weeks and uncomfortable

Any other moms in the last few weeks of pregnancy and find it super uncomfortable to lay down ? What has helped besides a pregnancy pillow (I refuse to buy one because I’ll no longer use it after pregnancy)

Pregnancy pillow

When did you buy your pregnancy pillow? I am 5+2 and also sleep with our sausage dog in the bed who is currently clingy with me. I wake up with backache and what feels like a stitch most mornings but wondered if it was too soon for a pillow

Is it safe to use a hot water bottle? I’m 23 weeks and recently getting bad back pain. I’m not sure if it’s from the pregnancy pillow or just the weight of baby getting bigger but just need some advice on what helps.

Is a hot water bottle safe to use on your back during pregnancy as it’s very hot and I don’t know if it had to be a certain temp like when they tell you not to have hot baths?

Did you use a pregnancy pillow, if so what one do you recommend? The big U shape ones or the long straight ones that can curve too?

Pregnancy Pillow for back sleepers?

Pregnant with my first, 12 weeks and uncomfortable already. Looking at pregnancy pillows and just looking for some recommendations. I almost always end up on my back in the night and this is terrifying for me in terms of still birth risk. Does anyone have any recommendations for pillows particularly for back sleepers?
