Maternity pillows-worth spending a bit more?

Question

Hi ladies,
First time mum here. I’ve been researching different pillows and the range is massive, in price too (£10-£100)! I’m always happy to pay for quality but I’d rather not pay crazy money for something that for £20ish will do the same thing. I want it to help me stay sleeping on my side, support my back/bump when sleeping and double up as a nursing pillow later on. Any recommendations please?

Answer

I have a BBhugme pillow, it’s amazing - it was definitely top end of the price range but I tried it against some of the others and found it much more comfortable, it’s like a big bean bag which can be adjusted to make it softer or firmer. It’s been a life saver to me as I’ve been struggling with my back throughout pregnancy!

Answer

I just have a normal pillow each side. I've had a maternity pillow before but didn't like it and the hot weather we've been having, I think it would just make it worse

Answer

I'm just using a normal pillow from the spare room seems to be working well once I found the right position for it.

Answer

I went with a C shaped instead of U. I had a feeling like I was going to feel trapped in U shaped ones🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ 
I LOVE it. I cannot sleep without it now! The open parts give you the chance of letting your belly or bootie out🤩 Not very expensive and defo worth it!

I got a huge U shaped maternity pillow from eBay for £20. It was amazing, I regret not buying it earlier, it helped after the birth too

Answer

I got the big one from Mama's and Papa's. Really helped in the second trimester and works as extra support in my third. The padding isn't amazing but it's like £20

Answer

I got a big 9 foot pillow on eBay and it’s great, stopped my rolling over (not that I can anymore 😂) I wish I had gotten the 12 foot though as I still need another pillow between my knees, I have bad pgp

Answer

I paid £45 for mine from mothercare, when you think how much you use it I think it’s well worth the money personally x
