Review on C Shaped Maternity Body Pillow For Sleeping - INSEN Pregnancy Pillow With Velvet Cover by Alejandro Anaya

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for a momma that naturally sleeps on her back and now has to side sleep

Let me start by saying, I am an avid back sleeper. Being pregnant it’s dangerous for me (and all pregnant women) to sleep on my back and I must learn to sleep on my left side (hints why I need a pregnancy pillow bad).I ordered the PharmaMeDoc pillow first and then the INSEN pillow and this is my observation:With the PharmaMeDoc pillow, when I went to sleep, the pillow was in place. When I woke up I was on my back without any support… made it hard for me to fall asleep in fear of ending up on my back again. It’s because the U shape allows you to escape the pillow. The stuffing wasn’t the greatest either. If I would of kept it, I would of needed to go buy stuffing to fill it.A friend of mine, who is a back sleeper as well, told me to get the INSEN Pregnancy Body Pillow that’s the C Shaped Full Body Pillow. So I took a picture to compare the two pillows.The PharmaMeDoc pillow is not quite as stuffed as the INSEN pillow (though the reviews for the INSEN pillow, people say the pillow isn’t stuffed enough…maybe I got the unicorn of the INSEN pillows lol). The PharmaMeDoc pillow is not a bad pillow it just wasn’t the support I needed since I’m a back sleeper and having to train myself to sleep on my side.Also, I got the PharmaMeDoc pillow that was meant to stay cool. Being pregnant has my body on heat over drive at night and unfortunately the "cooling” didn’t work for me. I kept catching myself hot and kicking the pillow away. So if you choose the PharmaMeDoc pillow, get the color you like, not because it says it has "cooling technology”.Why I like the INSEN more: the design makes it to where I can’t kick the pillow away from me and end up on my back. It literally hooks around me. Perfect for learning to sleep on my side when all my body really wants to do is sleep on my back.Both are good pillows and soft but if you naturally sleep on your back, I’d recommend the INSEN over the PharmaMeDoc.
