    Farmgirl: Not a stupid question There are none I've been told!

    Anyway's I sleep with my body pillow running under my bump and between my legs. Then when I roll over I hold onto it with my legs and just re-position it under my bump. I find that because of the length of it the body pillow gives me greater support. I do find that, even with the body pillow, my hips go numb sometimes. I'm guessing that's from the extra weight that is being put on them at the moment and would happen no matter what type of pillow I was sleeping on.

    When you are no longer using your body pillow as a body pillow it also covers the full width of a QS bed, so you can snuggle up to DH without having your head between the pillows

    FG - To provide support for your belly and something for between your legs it is helpful to have a much bigger pillow, and if you happen to have the bed to yourself you still have something to cuddle. If you are a back sleeper it also provides enough support to be under your hip without the rest of your body twisting because it goes from shouler to mid calf (or knee if you are really tall) which helps to reduce stiffness.
