Leachco Snoogle Loop Contoured Fit Body Pillow, Ivory

I bought this pillow to make the transition to sleeping only on my side easier when I became pregnant. It is a wonderful pillow--except the area where your neck goes is very uncomfortable!

The seam of the inside curve on both ends is sewn while pulled very tightly, so when I position my head on top, this tight seam digs into my shoulder. I have tried to ease it by pushing it up against the headboard, or making sure the whole pillow wasn't held taut, or draping it with an extra pillowcase, but nothing I do has helped. I wake up with a sore shoulder, which stinks because I love the rest of the pillow! I'm going to see if it's returnable, and I'm going to try the one shaped like a "6", and use my own pillow for my head. Oh well!

I bought this when I was 19 weeks pregnant after a friend recommended it. I'm now 23 weeks, and I don't think I could sleep without it! It completely alleviated the back pain I was starting to feel while sleeping. I was using five pillows wedged around me to sleep, and I would constantly have to readjust them during the night. Now, this is the only pillow I use, and it stays put. My friend that made the recommendation bought the original Snoogle that doesn't loop all the way around. She said if she had to do over again, she would get this one instead. I agree. This one gives back and belly support, and doesn't need to be readjusted if you turn over. I originally thought this was too expensive for a pillow, but it's worth every penny.

I've had the original Snoogle body pillow for two years now and absolutely loved it. It held up great over time, great in the washing machine and was super comfortable during my first pregnancy and beyond. I literally cannot sleep a night without it! (preggo or not) I'm now pregnant again with baby #2 and saw this new Snoogle Loop that has a longer side than my original. I decided to retire my old one and bought this one... SO GLAD I DID!!!! What a wonderful difference! Just when I thought the Snoogle couldn't be better... it truly is!! It's fluffier and hugs my body all around. I don't know how any pregnant woman sleeps without having a Snoogle. This particular one is the absolute best!!

I really like this pillow. I can't sleep on one side for the whole night so I was looking for a pregnancy pillow that didn't need to be re-adjusted every time I turn over. This pillow supports my back and my hips. The only down side is it doesn't really support my belly all that well. I have to use another pillow for that.

Want Leachco Snoogle Loop Contoured Fit Body Pillow, Ivory Discount?

I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I suffered from previous back injuries in the past but it never fully recovered, so I started feeling slight back pains during the first trimester of pregnancy. I had trouble keeping on my left side when sleeping which led to more back pain. I tried using snoozers and pillows, but nothing seemed to work. We looked at the local maternity stores around but they only sold the C-shaped maternity pillows, and I figured they would be just the same as the snoozer at home. Originally, I was eyeing the Comfort-U Total Body Pillow Full Support Pillow CU9000 by Moonlight Slumber, but they wouldn't ship to Hong Kong, and I was slightly reluctant to pay $100 for a humongous body pillow that I would only use for a few months (although my hubby reassured me it would be worth the money). It was Chinese New Year and the shops in Hong Kong were closed, and I really needed the help, so I paid a little extra for priority mail and the snoogle loop pillow came in three days! I used it straight after I received it, but it did take me some time to get used to on the first night (I'm still not used to hugging something to sleep), but yes, the fact that it loops around the whole body, prevented me from sleeping on my back during the night, and the shape of the pillow ensured that my sleeping posture is correct. It also keeps my legs elevated so that I don't find myself having swollen feet in the morning. In fact, the snoogle loop pillow isn't as big as others said it was (it takes up less space than me hugging a snoozer and with pillows behind my back) we have a Queen size bed and I don't even take up half the bed yet! It's very comfy and firm, except the inside curve where the head goes, the seams are sewed a little too tight, but I usually sleep a little further down so that's not much of a problem (and there's still lots of room for me and I'm 5'5"). Others have complained about the fabric being too rough on their skin, but I've had no issues with this despite having very sensitive skin. During the day, I fold the pillow up so it becomes like a cushioned chair and I lean into that when I'm reading or using the laptop. It's so comfy, I often find my hubby snuggling it during the night! The only downside is the part where the head goes and I find that it doesn't support my neck enough, leaving me with neck stiffness, but now I put a very thin pillow (it's actually the pillow I used when I was a baby) underneath the snoogle loop pillow and everything is fine now! I just wish they had nicer patterns for the case, as they currently only have ivory white, but I would say, it was definitely a good buy and very worth it.
