Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Total Body Pillow provides total body support in many different sleeping positions during pregnancy and takes up less room than other full-sized body pillows. A removable soft Pima cotton slipcover makes washing easy. The Total Body Pillow can be used under the head and between the legs while sleeping, or it can be used for a back support.

Product Description

As baby grows, it becomes more difficult for mom to get the rest she needs. The dense foam of the Pregnancy Sleep Wedge cushion supplies support when positioned under the belly. Its lightweight portability makes it easy for mom-to-be to move it about during sleep. A lavish 360-thread count cotton slipcover makes for easy washing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good inexpensive alternative to body pillow - keep a couple of regular pillows on hand too., July 22, 2007

This review is from: Boppy Pregnancy Wedge with Cotton Slipcover (Baby Product)

I bought this pillow around 18 weeks because I didn't like the inflexibility of body pillows (which always stay the same shape) or that reviewers complained that the stuffing in the big pillows shifts around inside.
I do like this wedge a lot and will not travel without it because it defeinately takes the weight off my back by pushing up my tummy. I reccomend having a couple of other pillows though, one behind the back (to keep you from rolling over on your back while you are asleep) one under your head and one or two between your legs. This ends up being alot of pillows but they are more flexible than the body pillows and a lot cheaper. I can also throw this in a suitcase or take it to the living room for a nap or watching television on the couch, which I couldn't do with a larger pregnancy pillow. It is also comfortable to sit on (as is the regular boppy pillow) if you are on the floor for some reason or sitting up in bed.

UPDATE - not so hot after about month 7 or 8. I think this was great in the beginning, but don't expect it to solve your pregnancy related discomfort for the entire pregnancy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better for back support, November 29, 2005

I bought this despite hearing that it is too hard, and now I wish I would have listened. I am in the last half of my 2nd trimester, so maybe I'll use it more later, but for now it works best for back support when I'm sitting on the couch. When I have used it for sleeping I wake up with a sore abdomen, because the wedge is hard. I also have a snoogle pillow, and find that it works better alone, instead combined with the wedge. I hope the manufacturer will improve upon this wedge by making it with a material more like memory foam, which would make it softer, but still supportive. I am only 5'2", with a very short abdomen, so maybe the wedge made me sore because it went under my ribs, which were the most tender when I woke up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, October 19, 2005

This cushion has to be the best deal out there in terms of pregnancy pillows - at least for women in their 3rd trimester. I paid a lot more mid-pregnancy for a big "Snoozer" body pillow that has been in storage for several months now. For several weeks before buying the Boppy, I was waking up repeatedly with a lot of lower back and hip pain even though I was using a regular pillow to support my belly. With Boppy, I'm now sleeping much better and with a lot less back pain. I just wish I had tried it earlier!
