Boppy Prenatal Total Body Pillow

I purchased this pillow at the end of December 2010 but did not begin using it on a nightly basis until mid-February 2011. It's now April 2011...and the pillow is already flattening and losing its shape.

That said, it is still useful, and I definitely still get some benefit from using it. The part that goes between the knees is still fluffy enough to provide support and I can wedge the middle bit beneath my belly to get some support there. Unfortunately, the portion for neck/head/shoulder support is just not holding up. The filling is becoming lumpy (no, I haven't washed the pillow yet, so it's not from washer/dryer) and it's just not quite as comfortable as it was initially.

I expect the pillow will last until the end of this pregnancy, but I won't be saving it for the next one...I doubt it will be able to hold up through another. I'll probably look for a different body pillow the next time.

My husband bought me this pillow while pregnant with my first baby to help me sleep at night. It was fantastic! You can use the pillow in so many different positions. I would use it to help support my tummy, other nights I'd wrap it around my back if my back was achy..it turned many sleepless night into heaven.

The point I'd really love to make, which I didn't see in too many reviews is this pillow is awesome AFTER the baby is born. I used this daily for breastfeeding with both of my children. It was incredibly comfortable for both mom and baby and snuggled them in just right. On top of that, both of my babies LOVED to nap on this pillow. The pillow sort of looks like two attached crescent moons (more or less)and if you place them together it makes a big circular pillow (again, more or less). Well we'd place the babies right smack in the middle and they'd fall asleep right away!

This is a MUST HAVE for soon-to-be mommas. I still have my pillow almost 4 years... Read more

I LOVE this pillow. It offers the support that I need without being overwhelming in bed. I can turn back and forth from side to side with it relatively easily. It also doesn't take up too much space so I don't kick my hunny out of bed while using it. I like the options with it as well. You can fold it in half and prop yourself up to read or watch tv, lay it on one side of me so I can lay more on my back with support or all the way on my side with it between my legs and rest my arm on it. Plus, I know I can use it when the baby comes too to prop him up while relaxing or breastfeeding. It's the perfect "fluffiness" and hasn't deflated like some other reviews stated. I was skeptical when I saw how small it is when its in the packaging but it's been a life saver thus far and I plan on using it as much possible. I HIGHLY recommend!
