 - Finally I can sleep!I got this pillow when I was almost five months pregnant. I really wish I had gotten it sooner. I went through almost a whole month of waking up at least five times a night. Then, the pillow came into my life! I sleep so much better since I'm not worried about rolling onto my back or stomach. My husband is a cuddler, so he's hating the pillow in between us, but we're both happy that I can get more rest at night. I have a king size bed, and yes, it does take up almost half the bed. Also, I wish I could purchase extra pillow cases (maybe I can, but I just haven't figured out how). It is a pain to put the pillow case back on. Overall, the pleasure of waking up less at night makes any negatives inconsequential. I plan on using this through all my future pregnancies, even if I have to buy a new one each time. Rating:  - THIS IS AWFULToo thick, to short, and uncomfortable. I had a different body pillow before that I loved, but didn't want to spend $100 on a new one, so I got the cheapy based on these recommendations, I used it once and I HATE IT. 1. OVER filled so you are propped up in weird places (your head is high, and legs are high, while your center is drooping down). 2. Cover does not go back on once it is washed it is HORRIBLE. It is cut so there are larger and smaller parts on the cover, my husband and I both could not get this thing back on. 3. the curve at the neck base is sharp so you either have to have your arm over the top so you can rest your head on it or you have to scoot way down so it doesn't cut into your shoulders. 4. Base is too thick to support your belly 5. Fluffing or flattening the pillow doesn't work, it is stuffed to the max 5. I am 5'3 and it comes to the top of my knees on one side and if it is cutting into my shoulder in the top it will come to my lower back. 6. To keep your whole hip/let supported you need to have your legs really bent as shown the pictures. 7. It doesn't fold up or lay neatly anywhere 8. Not breathable SPEND THE EXTRA $40 AND BUY THE COMFORT U WITH FIBER FILL, IT BREATHS, IS ADJUSTABLE WITH THE THICKNESS IN AREAS, AND IS LONG ENOUGHT TO COVER YOUR WHOLE BODY. FOLDS IN 2 SO THAT YOU CAN PLACE IT UNDER YOUR PILLOWS WITH YOU MAKE YOUR BED..... I WISH I WOULD HAVE STUCK WITH THAT... Rating:  - PillowEverything is great with this product except a couple of things, it's hard to remove and replace the cover when cleaning. Also, the top portion of the pillow is not very soft. Overall it's a good buy for support while sitting or sleeping. Rating: - Soooooo worth the money!!!!I purchased this pillow when I was about 25 weeks and starting to have back pain in the mornings. It is like climbing into a soft, comfy, cocoon. I was hesitant about spending $50+ on a PILLOW but it is so worth every penny. I climb in bed at night and go "Ahhhhhhh." You also don't have to switch the pillow back and forth with you because you're covered on both sides which means less interrupted sleep. It does make it a little more difficult to get out of bed at night but I'm willing to put up with that. And, the cover is a pain to get back on but again, this pillow is well worth the hassle. Rating: - Too large and hurts shouldersI am currently six months pregnant and having trouble getting comfortable at night. After reading the rave reviews, I purchased this pillow thinking it would be so great for me. I was disappointed when I tried it. Here's why: 1. Getting the cover on and off to wash is a real pain. 2. The curved part digs into my shoulder and really hurts. I've tried to stretch the cover and shove another pillow there to help but the seam just really cuts into me. 3. It is absolutely HUGE and heavy. Since I cannot really use it as intended because of the shoulder problem, I flipped it upside down so I can use it as a regular body pillow. This is OK but the end of the pillow hangs off the bed and is heavy when I try to flip over with it. I toss and turn a lot so this creates a problem. 4. This pillow makes me so hot I wake up drenched in sweat. I would recommend something smaller and more manageable. I don't feel that this has helped me sleep better at all. I will keep trying different positions with it to see if I can make it work since I did pay a lot for it. I can't really return it since we've already used it and washed the cover. :-(
