Are you supposed to stop sleeping on your stomach as soon as you know you are pregnant? I have still been sleeping on my stomach.... oops!

But the past two nights I have had horrible nights tossing and turning and unable to sleep. I want a snoogle![/quote]

I love my snoogle, although some nights I wake up and my feet are on top of the pillow and I'm sleeping on my back while DH is hugging the pillow. I guess I move a lot in my sleep. I also love it for lounging on the couch, feels like being wrapped up in a soft cocoon.

Sounds like my house, I get into bed and DH asks "Are you using the Snoogle tonight?" :D

So glad you like it! I've already done some traveling with mine - and be warned that it takes up a LOT of room in a suitcase! ;)

A pillow can't stop the spreading of your hips;)[/quote]

It may not stop it, but, perhaps make it more comfortable in the meantime for sleeping. I'm trying to keep a positive outlook on things ;) [/quote]

I wasn't trying to be critical! Sorry! Yes, of course you want to be comfortable.

I am so glad you like it!! My LO is almost 3 months old and I still sleep with mine! I was a total tummy sleeper before I got pregnant and I tried to sleep without my snoogle the other night and wasnt nearly as comfortable, so it's back!

Dont forget to take it to the hospital when you give birth as well....it makes the hospital beds almost bearable and I found it very handy for nursing especially after having a c-section.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it!! I LOVE my snoogle as well. I think it just might be my favorite pregnancy item so far. I assume I'll keep using it after Baby comes until I can sleep on my stomach again.

Body Pillow:

Snoogle:

**My hips and back feel GREAT in the morning now. You can clearly see the difference. :)

how different is a snoogle from a body pillow?

I generally sleep on my side using a body pillow and find that there is a spot on my hip that goes numb after awhile, but sleeping on my back isn't all that comfy either. :(

Good to know they're worth the investment.... Do they ever go on sale :D

Hmm, a snoodle. I am going to have to look into that. I get wicked hip pains that make me get up much earlier than I want to! I thought I was the only one.

Yay! I'm so glad you love it! I don't know how I would have gotten through this pregnancy without mine. I'm in love with it too.

Thanks Kiwi! I found that with sleeping on my side, my hips and back would be so sore in the morning. It was actually waking me up and making it very difficult to stay in a deep sleep.

It would be a great world if Doctor's handed them out to us preggo's at our first appt. ;) :w00t:

I haven't been sleeping very well. I've always liked to sleep on my belly, I miss it deeply.

Ever since the rave reviews about the Snoogle pillow, I decided it sounded worth the $67 (with tax) for a decent nights sleep. All I have to say is I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! :w00t:

Now I must make room in my suitcase for it to come with me on our trip to Ontario. I don't want to leave it behind!

I definitely recommend the Snoogle. :)
