Will a body pillow help my pregnant fiance?
May 21st, 2010 | 
Author: She is 18 weeks pregnant and has a lot of back pain, she has a very small frame and has gained weight and her body isn’t use to it. She is having a hard time sleeping she is very restless and I feel so bad I want to do something. What if I drove to the store and got her a body pillow for support would that help? I am up at 5 am because I feel bad and I really want to do something for her. Thanks.
Also she has had back problems in the past.
Actually I do feel bad lady, and I put that I am up at 5 am because i was giving my reason for being up. I dont need strangers to tell me I am a good partner I know that I love my fiance and I was just asking for advice. I am sorry if I offend you by expressing my concern.

Depending on the type of back pain, and the person, a body pillow can be a godsend. I sleep with one because of it. They are relatively cheap at Wal-Mart. The velvet-like covered ones at Wal-Mart last longer, in my experience. They cannot be washed. I recommend a pillowcase specific for body pillows. My only warning is that having a body pillow in a bed with two people is like trying to juggle a third body. But it worked for me during and after my pregnancies.
And if you’re making a 5 AM Wal-Mart dash, might ask if she wants ice cream, or whatever she’s craving.
YES! I’m 18 weeks too, also cant sleep and I think one of those would really help. Can you get me one while your there please? Thanks!
i just put a pillow between my legs i get bad back ach and sciatic nerve pain. Helps alot, so a full body one would be even better!
You’re not asking this because you need advice, you’re sweeping for compliments about how nice a partner you are
“I feel so bad I want to do something, what if I drove to the store….I am up at five am….”
You don’t need to tell us that, I call “FISHING POLE”
But yes, a body pillow will help, but really- no amount of cushy makes the last half of pregnancy any less uncomfy.
