I recently found out I'm expecting my second child which is extremely exciting! What's not exciting is how uncomfortable I am at night. It seems like I can't get comfortable and my stomach already seems very heavy. In my last pregnancy with Scarlett, I went many weeks without a pregnancy pillow but I need one a lot sooner this time around. There's nothing like having total body support to give your body the restful sleep it craves.
Boppy is your one-stop shop for everything baby and pregnancy related. Whether you're expecting your tiny bundle of joy, or have just given birth, there's a product that will fit you or baby's needs. Choose from nursing pillows and nursing covers to pregnancy pillows and newborn loungers. You'll also find baby carriers and a lot of accessories to keep baby happy all the time. Keep the brand in mind for baby shower gifts that will surely come in handy.
If you're looking for a fabulous pregnancy pillow, Boppy offers many including a pregnancy wedge, support pillows, side sleeper pillows, and more. Since I was looking for complete body support, I opted for the Multi-Use Slipcovered Total Body Pillow. This one piece pillow offers head-to-toe body support that will make you so happy. Whether you want to sleep in bed or prop yourself up on the couch to watch TV, the body pillow will support you however way you'd like.
Since I have trouble sleeping at night, I was most interested in using the pillow in bed. It's hard for me to sleep on my side and I find that my side hurts after a while. I'm not comfortable on my stomach, and as your stomach grows it's not safe to sleep on your back either because of the weight. Sounds challenging, huh?
As soon as the total body pillow arrived, I was ready to use it for bed that night. I had a pregnancy pillow with Scarlett and it was a lot longer and wider, so I was happy to see that this one was more compact and will take up less room in my bed. The stylish neutral pattern will fit in with any room or bed decor easily. The soft and inviting pillow was calling my name and I couldn't resist trying it. What I found was that I was most comfortable with the pillow underneath my stomach and my legs between the pillow to get the most support. As my stomach grows I know I'll need that support more than ever. I was very thankful to have a very restful night's sleep without all the tossing and turning I normally have. The pillow is extremely comfortable with a firm softness to it. The cover comes off for easy washing in the washing machine.
When I relax on the couch during the day, I like to have the pillow half on my back and half on my stomach. It alleviates some of my back pain and offers the support that I need. I'm very thankful for this pillow and will certainly be using it throughout my pregnancy.
Boppy also sent a Newborn Lounger in the Hello Baby pattern. I chose this adorable pattern since I don't know the gender yet and I'll be able to use it for both a both or a girl. This newborn pillow has a recessed interior which provides the ideal place for baby to coo and kick in comfort. Mothers everywhere will appreciate a safe place to set your tiny bundle of joy down for a hands-free moment. The pillow is soft and comfortable with a bright and vivid pattern.
I know the Newborn Lounger will come in handy once my baby is born. I envision using it in our playroom or family room to put baby down safely while I make a bottle or quickly help Scarlett with something. It won't be too long before I get to use it, and I can't wait!
If you're looking for quality baby items to add to your registry or to gift a new mom, Boppy is a perfect choice!
