Leachco Snoogle Original Maternity/Pregnancy Total Body Pillow, Ivory 60 Inch

I really, REALLY wanted to be one of those moms-to-be who glows through her entire pregnancy. You know the type, with the perfect, round bump, rosy cheeks, who craves pickles and ice cream and runs around the house "nesting" in anxious anticipation of her little bundle of joy's arrival. I REALLY WANTED TO LOVE BEING PREGNANT. Well, I wasn't able to live up to that picture of pregnancy perfection (and really, who does?)... I'm more of the puking, raging, bumbling, miserable rhymes-with-witch kind of pregnant woman. You know the type, the sleep-deprived, overly irritable, bloated brain-dead zombie with leg and back cramps, and agita that won't quit. Up until I got my Snoogle, I EFFING HATED BEING PREGNANT. Now, I can't say that the Snoogle made me into the kind of mom-to-be I had dreamed of being, but it's made my life a whole lot less miserable. For one, I can finally sleep at night, and in a bed, too! Before, I got maybe three hours of sleep on the couch if I was lucky. It's great to be able to sleep in a real bed again, and honestly, it's only because of this big freaking pillow that I'm able to. I stayed at my mom's house two nights this past week without it and UGH! WORST. SLEEP. EVER. It's hard to explain this to someone who's not pregnant, but if you're reading this, I'm guess you are pregnant (or someone close to you is... someone close enough to you that you'd consider buying a $55 pillow because you care that much/really need to shut them up/miss the "trying" part of having a baby and hope this will do the trick, at least)... but pregnancy makes you NEED weird things. Me? I needed something bolstered up against my back. I don't know why. Basically I needed cushions to hug and or smother me to sleep. Well, Snoogle delivers a nice hug, without too much smother. It doesn't smother my husband in our queen size bed, neither, nor does it take up too much room so that he's forced to sleep elsewhere, which is (usually) a good thing. My cat, Pickles, also seems to have claimed part of it as her bed, so she's happy with it too. As if sleep isn't a good enough reason, the Snoogle also helps with the agita, as I can prop myself up a bit at night, and my restless legs can rest a little easier with the bottom part between my knees. I'm not the picture of pregnancy perfection, but I'm a lot less terrible to be around now that I'm rested and overall much more comfortable. While I can go on and on about the wonders of the Snoogle, I'll spare you. I will say, however, that YOU NEED TO BUY THE BETTER PILLOWCASE SEPARATELY. For the love of god, DO NOT FORGET TO BUY THE PILLOWCASE UPGRADE. You can find some good ones here: Snoogle Chic Jersey - Snoogle Replacement Cover with Zipper for Easy Use - Charcoal And yeah, they're another $25. For $55, you'd expect the actual Snoogle to come with a soft, easy to remove and replace cover, I mean it should! But it doesn't. As if babies don't cost enough as it is... Still, this is probably the best 80 bucks I'll spend during my pregnancy, especially considering I was on modified bed rest for weeks on end. After all, you really can't put a price tag on a happy, or at least less miserable, pregnancy. I love helping out others (especially moms-to-be!) with my experiences, so if you've found this helpful, please click yes below to let me know!

I am 8 months pregnant and have been using this pillow since I was about 4 months. I wasn't having any trouble sleeping, but figured I'd get ahead of the game by getting this pillow....and I absolutely love it! Even at 8 months, I am still sleeping really well. I find this pillow to be very comfy. I've read of others using this in addition to other pillows, but I actually use only this pillow. I mainly use it the way the pictures here show, with having the long part in front of me being my favorite. Aside from sleeping with it I also fold it up and use it to prop myself up in bed, or to put under my legs to elevate them. There really are a bunch of uses for it. I enjoy it so much that I've brought it with me when staying at either a friend's or a family member's house to ensure I sleep well. I have a lot of discomforts from pregnancy, but surprisingly back pain is not one of them (even though I had back pain pre-pregnancy) and I really think it's because of this pillow. I may even consider using it post-pregnancy for this reason alone. As others have mentioned, there are some not so awesome qualities such as the pillow case being a bit difficult to get on and off. Honestly, I'm not sure how they'd avoid that, it's a long, skinny pillow. If they used a zipper or buttons it would just make using the pillow uncomfortable since there's technically no top or bottom so at some point you'd be laying on them. I do wish there were pillow cases to put over it though. The material can get a bit scratchy and mine has a few patches of lint balls, but it's just a minor problem for me. And it certainly larger than a standard pillow, but that honestly doesn't bother me too much. I've been running quite warm during my pregnancy so haven't been getting under the covers anyway, so it really hasn't posed a problem for me, but I can see where people may be annoyed by this. All-in-all, I have thoroughly enjoyed my pillow and while it's not a cheap pillow, I feel it was worth it.

Very uncomfortable - not worth the money

مخدة مريحة ولكن مختلفة عن الوصف باللون بيج ووصلتني ابيض+ لايوجد تاق بإسم البراند كما هو واضح بالصور!! ف لا اعلم اذا كانت الاصلية او مقلدة بالرغم من سعرها المرتفع؟

Good quality item. Authentic and worth buying. Wife loving it as it supports her back and tummy well.

Perfect. My wife just loses herself in to sleep as soon as she comes to bed. She is in her 5th month now. She enjoys being with her Leachco Snoogle total body pillow. The size is appropriate for Indians. Material is really soft and good.

The pillow tore while putting back the cover. The cover isn't soft, rough and pricky on face. Irritates the skin, make you feel itchy. Stopped using after a couple of uses. Not comfortable at all.
