Wifey wants a maternity cushion

rich_melly · Nov 25th, 2008, 17:29 PM

Her back, side and legs are hurting when she is laid in bed. She wakes up in pain too and says she can't walk for a while....

She has mentioned a cushion or something. Does anyone know of any good ones that she can lean/lay on in bed to help support her body?

I gonna be a good hubby and get her one, but being a bloke, i have no idea what i am looking at!

Thanks in advance!

Ah poor woman

SPD? Has she got it checked out?

You can get different shapes of pillows ...v shaped long straight pillows! I was very achey through my pregnancy and my OH bought me a long maternity pillow:

It really helped because I could hug into it throw my leg over and stuff

lol rather than fight with a v shaped pillow (hope that makes sense).

PS: Buy your self one through my pain I had to fight my OH for this bloody pillow!

lol

LOL no he bought me that MAT pillow I linked to above ...I had to then fight him to use it

My MW fobbed me off too it was near the end someone listened to me and the hospital nurse said 'only one way to cure this ...birth'! 3 days later I gave birth!

Does she click alot? *Ouch*

click? not really.... i don't think..... and she doesn't think she does either! TBH we don't know what you mean! lol

Haha

You'd know. We've all had the clicking of bones when you get off the floor or something? I get that constant with pregnancy and it hurts later in pregnancy I can't move without pain because I'm about to crack/click. Its awful even OH eeks at it sometimes

I'm sure she will really appreciate it

my oh just bought me lots of normal pillows, i would have 3 for my head, 2 under my back, 2 between my legs, one under bump! I remember when my waters started leaking I couldnt get out of bed for the pillows!

I have used a maternity wedge since my bump became big enough to and I couldn't sleep without it! It's only about a tenner from Mothercare so it's cheap too.
