AngQi Pregnancy Pillows, U Shaped Pregnancy Body Pillow for Sleeping, 55 inch Maternity Pillow for Pregnant Women with Cooling Jersey Cover, Grey

I have had this pillow now for six months. I have used it both during pregnancy and after and could not be more pleased with it. It has provided a wide range of benefits uses. The cover is a soft jersey material that unzips for easy removal. I wash it once a week and the material and zipper have both held up nicely. It is a little bit of effort to replace the cover after washing due to the size and shape of the pillow, but the generous opening makes it fairly easy. The pillow itself has a zipper also so you can customize the level of stuffing, more or less, to your liking, though I left it as is and found it to be perfect for my needs. During pregnancy the pillow helped me stay on my side comfortably. I could move the sides of the pillow where I wanted them for optimal comfort and no more aches and pains in my hips, back, or shoulders. Now that I have had baby I throw one leg of the pillow behind me on top of the headrest and it becomes a nice back rest for late night feedings. After baby is back asleep in his bassinet I bring the leg of the pillow back down and enjoy a few more hours of pain free rest. I wish I had this pillow years ago for my hips, back, and neck and I expect I will continue using it for years to come. Now that I am able to sleep on my back once again I find having the support for my shoulders and ability to adjust the legs of the pillow to prop up my knees to be very comfortable. As a woman with previous sexual trauma, sleep was always something difficult for me but this pillow provides me that sense of comfort as it hugs me from both sides and I have had much more restful nights as a result. When my husband and I want to snuggle he moves one leg of the pillow out of the way so no problems there. Great pillow with many benefits and uses.

I suffered through sleep with my first pregnancy with an assortment of different pillows gathered from our bed and couch. This pregnancy, I decided to splurge on a real pregnancy pillow. Boy am I glad I did. It made resting comfortable again.I was afraid that it would be difficult to have proper neck posture, especially side-sleeping, with this pillow. I have serious neck tension problems which lead to debilitating headaches, and regular pillows of all thickness and firmness levels have all let me down most of the last decade. I had planned to turn the pillow around and put the "U" between my feet, but amazingly, it felt perfect under my head, and I have had nary a neck tension headache in the time I've been using it. That in itself is pretty phenomenal. But in addition to that, it helped support and recover my belly and back and hips through some serious pregnancy pains, including back strain so bad I couldn't straighten up for over a day, and symphysis pubis dysfunction, which is pretty horrific.I suspect that this pillow, along with chiropractic, played a role in helping my joints and ligaments align for optimal baby positioning for a good birth. Our firstborn was anterior and on the right, and I had awful, awful back labor and was in labor for 42.5 hours after my water had broken and had to be induced with Pitocin. With this pregnancy, the baby aligned her back to my left side around the beginning of the third trimester and rarely moved. When it was time to go into labor, she moved down easily (if that can be said of any labor) and rotated perfectly for a fast and effective labor with far less back pain.

I've had this pillow since 12 weeks (now at 21). I sleep in pretty much every position, on my stomach is by far my favorite. While nothing can ever truly replace sleeping on my stomach, this pillow has helped a ton. It allows me to throw my leg over it while still being on my side, which I can sometimes trick myself into feeling like I'm almost sleeping on my stomach. The U-shape is perfect for me because I toss, turn, and change positions to frequently that I don't have to take the pillow with me at every time, it's already there. It has helped a lot with back sleeping too, which is my second favorite sleeping position. I can prop myself up just enough to relief any pressure that might be on my vena cava, but still feel like I'm sleeping on my back.It has also definitely held it's shape extremely well and shows no signs of flattening. I also chose this specific item for the promise of a cooler pillow. I get very hot at night and could not fathom the idea of using one of those velour-like pillows. This cover has been extremely soft (not at all itchy as I've seem some other comment - and I'm pretty picky about that kind of thing), comfortable, and cool. I haven't gotten to summer time yet, but feel confident that this pillow will not cause me any trouble. Other bonuses: It's helped a little with acid reflux and keeps my dogs from sleeping on top of me (instead they snuggle up to the sides)!

I absolutely love this pillow. Only thing I would improve to more stuffing. I have bought three of these since covid began and I always end up going to buy additional stuffing from hobby lobby. These are super supportive for a side sleeper like me and my dogs love it when I’m not using it
