Good for shoulder pain
I’m not pregnant but I love this pillow. I use it in bed and around my house. It’s supportive but also soft and comfortable. It’s the perfect size for me to curl up in, but isn’t too big like some of the other ones on Amazon. I got the one with the zipper which is great because you can detach a portion, but also kind of a pain because that arm gets all twisted. Overall, I recommend this pillow.

Pregnancy pillow
Starting the end of my 2nd trimester I used this pillow every single night and every single nap. I would’ve been lost without it. It gave me support, was so soft and I looked forward to laying with it. My fiancé and my dog would steal it and sleep with it when I wasn’t in the bed if that gives you any idea about how great this was.

Got this for my (not pregnant) boyfriend!
As silly as it sounds, I thought a pregnancy pillow would be a great Christmas present for my boyfriend & it really was! He usually needs to put a pillow between his legs to fall asleep and this pregnancy pillow works like a charm.It needs about 48 hours to fully fluff up, and it opens up so that it doesn’t take up too much space on the bed. I love this! Great buy, I highly recommend for both the pregnant and non pregnant 🙂

Best option in this price range imo. Ideal size if you have two people sharing a Queen.
These pictures are taken about 2 hours after unpacking. It definitely took the full 48 hours before it was really at it fluffiest. At first you would have thought it was fairly flat, despite how fluffy it looks in this picture. By the second or third night it had puffed up considerably. For me personally it was still not as thick and firm as I prefer, which I had anticipated based on the reviews. Luckily I purchased memory foam filling and was able to stuff the portions that I felt needed it. I have a super tall partner and I was worried about getting one of these because I assumed it would take over the whole bed. Fortunately it really only takes up half of the bed and my partner doesn’t mind resting on the half that falls onto his side occasionally.It terms of support and pain relief, it has been extremely helpful, although as I mentioned before I did add some memory foam stuffing – so it isn’t exactly as it was sold. I have sciatica brought on by pregnancy and it has really brought the flare ups down to a minimum. I also have had a lot of hip pain from not being able to sleep on my back and tucking this under my hip/leg has really been a game changer.All in all it is extremely comfortable and helpful if you are pregnant and looking for some comfort and relief. Also very affordable and if you spend another ~$20 on extra stuffing it is essentially no different than the extremely pricey memory foam or cooling brands.

Magical pillow
Ordered this the day after a hysterectomy when I couldn’t get into any comfortable sleeping position. This thing is pure heaven and I feel like I’m sleeping in a cloud when I climb into it.It’s a bit firm but I like that bc it’s supportive on the sides. I got the natural cotton one bc it would ship same day and it looks like the cover zips off to wash which is great.My husband says he’s been replaced by this pillow. It’s seriously the best thing to cuddle, and the best sleep I’ve ever had in my life.I tend to sleep hot and this doesn’t make me sweat at all, I get itchy/sensitive to sheets that aren’t mostly or 100% cotton and this feels very soft on my skin.Sorry husband. 🙂

Great sleep support
This is an awesome product, it helps you sleep on your side easier and stay sleep longer. I like that the fabric is cool to the touch, the material feels soft but it’s thick enough to keep your leg separate over night, yet relieving you of any pain in your hips. I highly recommend this body pillow.

Very comfortable with wish it was thicker for better support
Sleeping very well with this even on my back. I’ve been using since I was 10 weeks pregnant and now almost 6 months. It’s very comfortable and I love that it’s organic. After feeling a thicker pillow- I wish this one was thicker.

Can’t get enough
My husband tried to fight me for this pillow. It’s the only thing that keeps me from having belly pain from sleeping on my side. I unzip the pillow off and tuck it under my belly and the mattress. It is the perfect amount of support to keep my belly “level”

Not As Puffy As Expected
This wasn’t as supportive or squishy as I was hoping it would be, but it’s still comfortable. However, I bought the discounted color so this may be why. Surprisingly I actually am not a fan of the dangly pillow part of it. I wish both sides were the same as the sculpted half. That being said, if I tuck both sides under my hips and sleep with a (different) pillow between my legs it does reduce my hip and lower back pain at night!

Perfect for early trimesters
I bought this when I was three months pregnant. This is great for maybe the first six months but by your last trimester you will want something a little bigger/thicker.

Great price
I think this will work for most people. My husband recently had his fourth prostate surgery and then, two weeks later, an emergency gallbladder surgery. We knew he’d be spending a lot of time recovering in bed. I have neck and back pain. Between the two of us, we figured one of us would like it. We are both side sleepers.We ordered the star print and the price point is excellent. It is very so slightly itchy but I’m sure a cover could fix that. His issue is that he is 6’6″ and it wasn’t long enough to do what the photo shows. He would have to move it from side to side every time he moved as one side is thicker than the other. No big deal. It didn’t support his lower legs at all due to his height.My issue is that the pillow where your head goes is too puffy. I would wake up with neck pain from my head being too high in the air. One side has a removable section for your arm, which is truly lovely and well thought out. But the other side doesn’t. So, again, you have to move it each time you move. (I sleep with my arm under my pillow.) I wish I could have flattened just to the top part where my head laid.I think this would be wonderful if you wanted to watch TV or read in bed. It also takes up a lot of the bed. I have a twin XL and one part was falling off. My husband has a California King and this wasn’t an issue (we are sleeping separately for now due to his surgeries).I’m giving it four stars. The price is stellar and I’m guessing this works in a lot of situations.

Very good quality!
I got this for my daughter who is in her first trimester of pregnancy. She absolutely loves it! I have to admit just buying this pillow made her think I’m the best most supportive mom in the world and she was very happy with it! The packaging wasn’t as great as pictured it was a little mangled however it did not effect the product what so ever. The organic cover is very soft and looks like it will be easy to wash. I would also like one of these for myself because it is that comfortable and supports the entire body. It’s like sleeping on cloud 9! Definitely would recommend this product! Thank you

Get this!
If you are pregnant this a must buy! I slept sooooooo much better with this pillow while pregnant. It was comfortable and had pretty good support for my back and belly. I did find that the pillow would move around slightly at night partly due to the material of the cover and my sheets but I also move a lot in my sleep. ha! This pillow helped to keep me cool in the heat of the summer and I took it with me whenever I went out of town overnight. I didn’t want to sleep without it lol! I highly recommend purchasing this pillow if you’re pregnant and honestly even if you’re not. It’s like a comforting hug while you sleep.

Hesitated for a while but so glad I purchased!
Woke up a new woman! I debating purchasing for weeks based on bad reviews and the prop 65 warning (which I didn’t see on my package?). Did some research on prop 65 and sounds like it’s on everything coming out of California and quite frankly, my other pillows and bedding could having this warning as well if they were made in California. That being said, being PAL, I can’t be 100% certain and totally understand the hesitation in purchasing!!!Unboxing: it was hard to wait but I did let it air out for 24 hours. I am a slight germaphobe when it comes to my bed lol… so after letting it air out I took off the cover and washed it and then I put the pillow part in the dryer on high heat with some dryer balls and lavender oil. That definitely helped it puff out more.As for sleep: wow! I only woke up once in the middle of the night (compared to my usual 3 or 4 times) and my hips don’t ache this morning! I’ve also carried it with me to the couch for night time tv and morning coffee. It has nice support for sitting up and feels cozy.

Would not have gotten through pregnancy without it!
I swear this has been a saving grace throughout my pregnancy! It was the first thing I bought when I found out I was pregnant and I have used it legit every night since. It travels with me if we go anywhere! The cover is easy to remove for washing, and I love the fact that you can remove the extra piece as my husband did not love it in between us all the time. Very happy with this purchase.

Great pregnancy pillow! – give it time to poof up
UPDATE: The pillow has poofed up quite a lot after using. Looks just like the photo now! 48 hours isn’t enough for it to poof up so it will take about a week or more but it will! Just be patient.It’s not as poofy as advertised. I kept it open & didn’t use for 48 hours as advised on the box. I still have to use a regular pillow on top for the head. I actually prefer less poofy as the really big ones tend to make me feel suffocated but i can’t imagine this working for someone who is bigger.

Nice pillow – soft support
I like the size and contour of the pillow and that a piece can be removed. I let the pillow sit for 2 days per instructions to allow it to expand but found it didn’t puff up as much as the stock photos show. The neck support wasn’t enough for me so I did flip the pillow around so I could use my regular pillows but still have the support for side sleeping.

Amazing
I had bought a regular body pillow from Walmart a while back. It helped for a little while, but when my belly started to get bigger and it was becoming harder to roll over with the pillow, I bought this. Best decision ever. I sleep so good (when insomnia isn’t heavy) and it keeps me cooler. I was a little worried because I sleep hot and can’t if I get too warm. This pillow stays cool, even under the blankets. Soft, supportive, and so comfortable. Love it!

So glad I got this! Wish I would’ve gotten it sooner. It took a day or two to break it in but it’s been a game changer. I gave 4 stars because I do with the filling was organic as well. Other than that, great product.

Great quality for the price!
I had surgery and needed to lay on my back for an extended period of time; this ‘pillow’ has been amazing for support and has allowed me to be comfortable while I heal. I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to sleep on my back but the shape, sturdiness, and overall use of this pillow has allowed me to be comfortable while sleeping.
Ms. Barb –
Great gift
My daughter loves it and no matter that the pillow is huge, she takes it wherever she sleeps over!

Astounded! Best sleep I’ve gotten in a while!
Holy cow… this pillow is HEAVEN.Third trimester has been a world of discomfort for me, from belly discomfort to body aches to muscle cramps.Sleep used to be a respite but by the time third trimester came around, I could never get comfortable. My body was always so awkwardly positioned that I always developed new aches to the ones I had during the day.But goodness, I am lying on this pregnancy pillow right now so comfortable, so we’ll supported all over that I knew I had to write this review and share the news! I tried all sorts of numerous mini and individual pillows in hopes they could replace this huge gift, but I’m so glad I finally bit the bullet!Luckily I was able to get in on sale, so it was about $30. SO WORTH IT! Get this, ladies! It helped me find comfort in bed again.

Great comfortable pillow
My only complaint is I get hot using it, but that was a symptom of pregnancy beforehand. Id probably go for a “cooling” one next time, but for the price this one is very comfortable and provides the support I need to sleep.
Amy –
If you toss and turn between sides, you need this pillow
The nice thing about this pillow is that no matter which side you’re laying on, you’ve got enough pillow to hug and put between your knees. Unlike other pillows where if you were to switch sides, you’d have to flip the whole pillow.

Daughter said it’s amazing
This is a gift for my daughter. Her first pregnancy and she works on her feet 20nto 12 hours every day. She says this pillow helps a lot at night when her back is aching and she has difficulty getting comfy. She cuddles with the pillow and it support all the right spots to make her sleep better.

Pregnant woman to pregnant woman just get the pillow
I really thought I would have lasted until the end of my pregnancy with my conformed king size body pillow but it was not happen once I reached 30-32 weeks. I had tried a few upedy brand pregnancy pillows and they all sucked. This one give the right support everywhere. If you are a tucked arm under your pillow sleeper you will love this pillow even more.

Amazing pillow
*** updated***The company was gracious and sent another pillow. My sons girlfriend absolutely loves it. The replacement is perfect. Thank youI bought this for the new mommy in our family and she was so excited. Only for it to not rise past 2 inches.

Stole it from my wife
So I initially bought this for my pregnant wife but she didn’t feel comfortable as this took up a lot of space on our queen bed. I stole it from her and I started sleeping with this a lot lol. It’s very comfortable.

Sleeping through the night
I am only 16 weeks pregnant but it has been so hard to get comfortable. I would hug a pillow, put a pillow between my legs and still feel like something was missing. It was the back support that was missing.I am now sleeping through the night when I was waking up 4-5 times. The only thing I don’t love about this pillow is the detachment feature. For some it might be helpful but for me I realize I would rather it just be one big piece. I still don’t regret the purchase and I will continue to use it! Be advised that it is a rather large pillow. We have a king size bed but I feel like my poor husband gets smushed to his side. He says he still sleeps fine and he doesn’t even realize but he’s also the sweetest guy and wouldn’t tell me to stop using it even if he was uncomfortable.

Great Pillow
This is my fourth pregnancy and fourth pregnancy pillow and by far the best one. I also don’t feel like I get hot and suffocate like I did with some of the others.
Elyse –
Great for side sleeping
There comes a point in your pregnancy where you can not sleep on your back & side sleeping is recommended. This pillow is great to grip while sleeping on your side. Easy to open, make sure you give it time to re-inflate. My three year old son also loves it as well.

Loved by mom & her pup!
I got this for my daughter and not only does she love it but her dog try’s to make it his when she’s not using it. So cute!
Zach Smith –
Just what she needed
During the first trimester, my wife struggled to be comfortable, often trying to stay off her stomach. I purchased this as an “early Christmas gift” and it changed the game for her, allowing her to sleep easy through the night and supporting her position comfortably. She tells me that this pillow is going nowhere after our child is born, and will continue to be put to use.

Omg! If you are pregnant or have back pain when you sleep this is a must have.. I love it made my sleep during pregnancy so much better I wish I would of bought it sooner! Definitely a gift to give if someone is pregnant

I use this to sleep in it every night and has helped with the new growing belly and leg and hip pain when side sleeping

Pregnant Wife is a big fan!
I ordered the pink pillow, and the second my wife tried it in bed, she said she immediately felt more secure a snug, which is a feeling she had been wanting during pregnancy when she wanted to get good sleep. She had previously tried wedging pillows behind her, to no avail, as they would shift and move in the night. She LOVED this pillow. Once it fully fluffed up after taking it out of the package, she wouldn’t let it out of her sight!

👍
My sleep quality improved with this pretty well. I’m typically a really hot sleeper so this material is great for that. I don’t wake up sweaty or anything. I’m sure there are better pregnancy pillows on the market but this gets the job done reasonably well, especially for the price. Biggest complaint is it’s a pain to wash. The cover is challenging to take off and put back but other than that I’m satisfied with this purchase.
Son –
Preggo Loves it! I’ve slept with it before and actually like it myself!
it comes in a very tight packaging so you gotta air it out and puff it out to let it expand. It’s soft and not too rigid but works well and for the price for a pregnant woman, its totally worth the try!

My husband hates it
Yes you read that right, my husband hates this pillow! We no longer cuddle at night because I’m too comfortable wrapped up in my pregnancy pillow. Now that I’ve given birth, I still use it for feeding and as a pillow wall for cosleeping. I love the detachable arm for when you need more room. Fold the arms behind you so you can sit up and relax. My husband hates it but I love it so much.

Not firm at all. But does the job
My partner really needed extra support, so if that’s what you’re getting this for shop somewhere else. Pillow is still great and very versatile. I regret to inform you I use it more than my pregnant partner though. I love it though!
Dayna –
Best pillow ever
I’ve got a dozen and a half pillows in my house of 2 people trying to find one to help me get comfortable at night so I can get a good nights sleep. This is the pillow that made it happen and more than half the costs of what I paid for other pillows. Love it
Amazon Customer –
Very supportive
The pillow is OK as far as what I wanted from it. It is not as plush as it appears in the photo. However, my girlfriend being is in her 2nd trimester and had been experiencing severe back pain. This pillow has helped to ease that quite a bit and she is now also able to sleep longer.
Graham Dodge –
My wife loves it, but now there’s a pillow wall
If you’re like me and got this for your wife because she wanted one, don’t worry she will love it, it’s as described and doesn’t smell weird or anything. Only problem is now I can’t get close enough to her to snuggle, not that we always snuggle, which is probably why she wanted one, but now we can’t, at least not without feeling like I’m Mr. Fantastic stretching my arms and legs over a void. On the plus side, we already have enough kids, so this may help with keeping it that way.

Sleeping much better and back pain is reduced
I am 8 months pregnant and my back pain has been severe as I approach the end of pregnancy. I was hesitant to purchase another pregnancy pillow because I had already purchased one with a different company and it made my back pain worse. My friend recommended this one to me and I’m glad I made the purchase. My back and hip pain have both been reduced and I’m sleeping in longer segments. I still get up a couple times throughout the night to pee, or course, but overall the quality of sleep is better. I will say though… the pillow is not as full/fluffy as seen in the advertisement. At first I was disappointed but then after sleeping with is, I realized I wouldn’t be able to prop my belly on a pillow so full/fluffy. I think it’s just right though it is misleading.

Overall Good Pillow
I really like that the “U” shape can transform into a “J” with just a zipper. But washing it is a pain!! It gets so lumpy and doesn’t like to smooth out. It is great for pregnancy AND breastfeeding baby. **not to mention your child will love it so much they steal it!**
Sai Prapoorna –
Depends on Person!
I suggest not to buy this product based on the reviews. Because this product would be comfortable based on the person and it will be different form one to another for sure! At first you will think the pillow is too flat later you will feel that it is good and gain you might feel its too high/low.The quality of the product is good. The shipping is little slow but acceptable. Even after using this for a month sometimes you might feel its good and sometimes its not!Summary: Buy it, Try it. But opinion keeps on changing when you use it on daily basis.

It goes flat.
I wish they would have made the filling better quality. It never fully fluffed up and then got flat by the head pretty quick. I just use a pillow under it now for head support. I like that the cover is washable. Definitely buying a different brand next pregnancy.

A must for pregnancy sleep
I’ve always been hesitant on having a bulky pregnancy pillow, but after sleeping with this I regret waiting so long to order it. I managed to get by with all my other pregnancies but this time was harder with twins. This is a must to get when your pregnant and I think I’ll be using it a lot postpartum too.
Shayna –
Definitely worth the price when on sale
I love how soft the organic cotton cover feels, it’s like a well loved cotton t shirt. It’s not a firm pillow, but it feels like you’re being hugged and it’s a very cozy pillow. I’m looking forward to seeing how this does when my baby bump grows bigger.

Great for people with rheumatoid conditions!
I have ankylosing spondylitis and have really struggled with pain management and sleep. When your body constantly hurts, sleeping well is almost impossible. A poor nights sleep really becomes your normal. This pillow is really a game changer. I have had more quality nights sleep than I have had in years. I even had a coworker notice a change in my demeanor. Not saying this is a miracle cure for those of us with differing types of arthritis, but it absolutely helps with relief.

For the man in your life, too
I bought this as a gift for my son at his request. He doesn’t even have any children. Lol! He just heard that these were comfortable for sleep. He likes his. Now his (not pregnant) sisters want one, too. If the price continues to be competitive on this one, I may be back over the next year to buy more.

Works great for post mastectomy!
I bought this to use after a double mastectomy to help provide incline and support. It has worked great but I do use it with my bed that is adjustable. I love the side that unzips and you can put your arm under it. It is pretty large so not so easy to move around but it is a keeper!

Great support! Love this pillow its helped so much!
Offers great support but the head portion was a little too high for my liking but thats just a personal preference. The pillow is a great material and stays cool throughout the night. I like the belly support it proved and I slept better. It also provides good hip support. Is say this is a great purchase.
Lily H –
Decent purchase.
Love hate relationship with this pillow. It’s zipper broke the 2nd day of me having it and it takes up a lot of space. Not great for crazy sleepers. But on a positive note it is comfortable and does give better stability then just a regular pillow.
