Amazon.com Product Description
Pregnant moms who struggle to find a comfortable position will love the Leachco Back 'N Belly Contoured Body Pillow. Moms-to-be can sleep well and wake up without aches! The big, roughly U-shaped pillow has two contoured "legs" so you can sleep on your back or either side, tuck the end of the pillow between your knees, and elevate your head to ease heartburn.

The Back N Belly provides support for the back and belly at the same time. Simply reverse the ends of the body pillow for a "double decker" head support. It elevates and aligns the hips to help ensure a natural position, which relieves stress on joints. This Leachco body pillow helps relieve carpal tunnel, sciatica, gastric reflux, and nasal congestion.

The Back 'N Belly is made of cozy, warm polyester and comes with a custom cover case which can be removed for washing. It can be used in positions not shown in the illustrations: Mothers of different sizes, shapes, and sleep preferences can experiment, as many have, to find just the right configuration.

1 out of 5 stars A pain in the neck - literally   October 6, 2008
The Girl in the Red Sweater (Texas, USA)
I chose this pillow because it had so many high ratings, but I wish I had read more of the negative reviews first. The main problem is the part where you're supposed to put your neck is shaped badly. Every night, my arm fell asleep and my neck had a painful kink. I had a hard time getting in and out of bed because it's so bulky, and it takes up more than half of a king-sized bed. It helped with my hip pain, but the neck pain was so bad it wasn't worth it.

I also found the cover extremely scratchy; if I'm going to spend this much on a pillow it should come with a soft pillowcase. It's a nightmare trying to take off the cover to wash it because of the weird shape.

That said, I can sometimes prop myself up by sitting in the neck of the pillow with the ends up by my head. That keeps me in a reclining position that prevents the hip pain. But it's so hard to adjust it so my neck is supported that I would rather just have a big wedge pillow.

I loved this pillow while I was pregnant. I used it every night from the day I got it to the a week or so after I delivered. It was wonderful. I never had a problem sleeping. It took up a lot of room in our bed, but my husband, dog, myself and pillow were all still able to sleep in our queen size bed with little complaining from my husband.


5 out of 5 stars Pregnant woman's cloud   September 24, 2008
Jean Alam (Northvale, NJ USA)
I did a lot of research before purchasing this pillow & was a little Leary with the mix reviews it got. But it is this pregnant women's dream come true. I am only 9 weeks & already having difficultly getting comfortable, due to the 1st trimester blues. When this pillow arrived yesterday I pulled it out of the box & immediately gave it a test run. Well, it's like being on a cloud & in a cocoon at the same time. The extra plus it is great protection from my 1st baby, my silky terrier, when he tries to jump on me. I am looking forward to using it for the remaining of my pregnancy & there after. One down fall is that you don't want to get out of bed in the morning.


5 out of 5 stars A Must Have!   September 13, 2008
Michelle Hsieh (Phoenix, Az)
I absolutely love it. My pillow finally arrived and I lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve it and thought i would share! I think someone else posted they bougt it a while back and loved it as well. Its soooo comfy. Lately some nights I'll have back, belly, or leg pains and some nights i just wasn't able to get comfy -but this pillow is sooo comfy. Unlike other one sided pregnancy pillows like the snoogle -its the same on both sides so no matter which way I turned, (I'm a tosser) I was comfortable -I was even comfy on my back -but was safely never flat on my back -always with my head elevated and leaning one way or another. Right now I am sitting up in bed with my laptop and have the pillow half bent up against the headboard so I'm sitting comfortably. I'm sue I'm going to be using it sleep even after pregnancy.

I was skeptical of buying it online at first because you can't return a used pillow, but after reading a ton of product descriptions and reviews online I decide on the Leachco Back n Belly pillow. It is the lowest priced on amazon at 54.99 w/o taxes or shipping

The only thing negative I found true from reading the reviews is that it has a traditional type pillowcase that is a pain to lug on such a huge pillow -and if you buy it from amazon like I did -it is in 'ivory' white so it can get dirty easily if you don't wash off your makeup first -but i just draped a soft bath towel over the head part -or a small soft baby blanket would do too.




5 out of 5 stars Love It!!!   September 6, 2008
J. Hanewich (Chesapeake, VA, USA)
I started having trouble sleeping through the night at 4 months into my pregnancy. Normally, I sleep on my stomach, so when I had to switch to side-sleeping instead it was REALLY uncomfortable! After many sleepless nights, knowing that I desperately needed my shut-eye, I searched the net for a solution. After reading all the reviews, I decided on this pillow. It arrived with supersaver shipping in 2 days!!! This body pillow is amazing. I have not slept without it since. We even took it on vacation and it made the hotel beds much more bearable. They NEVER give you enough pillows anyway. Now, when I wake up, I can shift to my other side and not have to shift multiple pillows into position to support my growing belly. The back support is a huge plus as well. I highly reccomend this pillow!!!
