 Definitely HelpsSep 14, 2009
Since early in my pregnancy, I had been sleeping hugging one pillow to rest my belly on with a second pillow in back of me to keep me from rolling onto my back in my sleep. When I hit week 30, this was not enough support.
I just bought this pillow at a local store and used it for the first time last night. First impression: very comfortable. I set aside all of my normal pillows and used only this, similarly to the picture shown here, only I had the top part (that the woman is hugging) shorter, and a longer bottom part on which I rested my tummy. I am 5'5" with a long torso. It fit me fine. When I turned over in the middle of the night, I just extricated my legs, turned over, and hugged the long part instead. Both directions worked for me, and I didn't wake up on my back with dead legs! I give this product four stars because it really, truly gave me the support I needed to help me rest. It is very comfortable, support-wise, and it takes up far less room in the bed than my previous double-pillow arrangement.
On the down side, I do have some complaints. The cover is 100% cotton, which sounds great, but it is extremely coarse and rough. I tossed an empty pillow case over the part I rested my head on, but I wish that I had the whole thing covered in a higher-quality, smoother, softer, gentler pillowcase. It chafed my thighs a bit. I also hate that the interior is 100% polyester. I can really tell. It made me sweat a lot. It's not hot because it's a big pillow, it's hot because it's polyester. Fortunately we're heading into autumn, but I don't think that I could use it if it were high summer. Of course, we don't have air conditioning or anything, so we just suffer it out in the heat. If we had AC it might be okay. Just something to consider if you are thinking of buying this in the summer. Considering the low quality of materials that go into this pillow, I would have expected it to be less expensive.
I thought about giving a three-star rating, but decided that I couldn't rate the pillow that low if I wouldn't be without it. It really did improve the quality of my comfort, rest, and sleep. I just wish it were made of higher-quality materials.
 At least the baby can use it...Aug 26, 2009
It was nice at first. Not anymore. It is cumbersome, and makes me sweat. It is a pain in the butt to flip it over during the night, just if I want to roll over.
We have a queen sized bed, and with me trying to snuggle the pillow, I take up half the bed! I am not a very large person (even with my growing belly).
Some reviewers have said they had problems with the length because they are taller, I'm average height at 5'7 and I don't have an issue. Typically you would be in the fetal position to use this thing comfortably, so I dont see how height could be an issue anyway.
Frankly, I feel stupid for thinking I need a special pillow to sleep well. But this is my first pregnancy and I was trying to suck in all the perks I could. A special pillow sounded awesome! In hindsight a regular body pillow would work just as well, even better, it would be lighter, cooler, and pillowcases are not hard to find...well I think I just convinced myself to go buy one.
The neat thing about this Body Support Pillow, is that your baby will be able to use it. So to make myself feel better about this purchase, I am now telling myself that I "bought it for the baby".
comfortable, but...Aug 20, 2009
Its pretty comfy, but it was a while before I could actually use it, the smell of chemicals where so strong when I first got it, I had to take off the cover and let it off-gas for at least 2 weeks before I felt comfortable sleeping with it. I also had to wash the cover a couple of times to get the smell off the cover, and it was a little difficult getting it back on. I don't think I would actually use this as a cushion for my baby just because its so clear that its either full of formaldehyde or other some kind of flame retardant chemicals.
 uncomfortable pillow and the service was lousyAug 13, 2009
People do not buy this pillow it is very very uncomfortable never got a chance to enjoy it due to the bulky uncomfortable shape.Never thought that it could be that bad, even regular pillow is much more comfortable than this one. Another negative thing about this seller is that they do not give you a return label and you have to pay the shipping cost from your own poket which is $25.00 due to the size. It does not deserve even a one star...
 Can't live withoutAug 13, 2009
I bought this while pregnant, and 19 months later still use it. During a really hot spell I had to put it aside or I'd sweat to death, and I FELT it. Very excited when the weather cooled and I could use it again. Only complaint is the zipper being exposed, but it's never actually caused me pain, it's just kind of annoying. SO GOOD.
