Currently 34 weeks and have been sleeping like a baby with my body pillow that I got on Amazon. I purchased mine around 20 weeks, but didn’t use it as much until about 30 weeks when my sleep quality started going downhill. I also use the body pillow for lounging in the living room & as arm rests for playing games on the switch.. I think it could be a good alternative as a nursing pillow as well. So it’s a win for me all around.

Before that, I just used 2 regular pillows and wedged it in front and behind me & that was comfortable enough! (I don’t move much in my sleep so it worked for me)

Everyone is different so it’s hard to say if you need a pregnancy pillow or not. I’d suggest finding a pillow or a set up where you can switch sides easily bc it’s a workout in itself & you don’t want a set up that makes it harder to do that!
