wonderful product helped me get comfortable

It helps you to lie on your left side in bed and gives great bump and belly support. The comfort it provides helps with improved sleep.

The pillow has gone a bit soft (due to 2 years constant use!). The cover is a pain to change. I did not find it useful as a breastfeeding pillow (I got a Widgey cushion which was great).

I continued to use the pillow after I gave birth as it is so comfortable - worth every penny. I am now using it for my second pregnancy.

OK but could be better

Helps a bit

The bit to go between the legs isn't long enough, it's also a bit skinny and not quite padded enough

The ad says that you don't need to turn it around to sleep on the other side, but if I do lie on my right the bit for the legs only comes about as far as my knees so is pretty useless.

Apparently there is a bit to support the bump, but I don't find that it does really, it more squishes into it

Not really padded enough to use as a back support in pregnancy or as a breast feeding pillow.

Didn't bother with it for second pregnancy :(

Not long enough, or padded enough.

Don't get me wrong, I do think it's a great idea, and I've generally found it more comfortable than anything else I've tried, but then as I generally can't get comfortable full stop that doesn't count for much at the price

I can't sleep without it!

I was struggling to sleep before a friend recommended this to me, I'm so glad I bought one! I have slept like a log every night since I started using it, it provides great support for my whole body, especially my ever expanding bump! I couldn't sleep without it now!

Quite large, but it does fold up into its small zipped package for storage.

Fantastic product, well worth the money!

This pillow stopped me going insane with sleep deprivation during my last pregnancy!

Very comfortable to sleep with and did stop many of the aches and pains that I had started having in me 2nd trimester. It did help me sleep a lot better and therefore had a big impact on making the pregnancy easier for me.

Quite expensive and the cover is a bit tricky to replace after washing it. I also didn't really find it healpfull as a feeding pillow.

Great pillow, I only wished I would have purchased it during my first pregnancy and not waited untill the second one!

Love it!

For someone who is a very active sleeper I have found this really useful to keep me in one place in bed, helping both me and my husband get a good nights sleep! It is easy to get the hang of turning over, although I have found it to be most comfortable with the longer side on the front. I was bought it as a present at 23 weeks but would recommend it from earlier than this, especially if you have had any back or hip pain.

It is a little pricey but does save the hassle of struggling with lots of different pillows that can move around if you tend to change position lots in bed.

A well designed product with some funky new covers.
