Buy this pillow right now! I purchased this pillow for myself at week 17 of my pregnancy (just two weeks before I started showing) and it has been amazing! It has brought me so much relief and I was shocked at the difference it made in my sleep right away! I was incredibly uncomfortable sleeping for the entire first half of my pregnancy and wish I had gotten this sooner, even though my belly hadn’t “popped” yet. My husband and I share a small full size bed and so I knew I didn’t have room for one of the classic giant pregnancy pillows. After using this for the last 8 weeks, I’m convinced this does the job perfectly! I have zero interest in even trying a classic “pregnancy pillow” because I sleep so well with the Hiccapop! I sleep mostly on my side with it wedged under my belly, but it is also wonderful for back support when sitting up in bed or on the couch. There are some nights where support between my legs works best. I move a lot in my sleep and switch sides often. This is pillow great because it is light weight and I can easily move the pillow to the best position in the middle of the night. It is advertised to have two different sides with different levels of firmness. Honestly, I don’t notice the difference and perhaps that’s because both sides feel fantastic. The fabric is soft and the pillow inside gives the perfect amount of support. I was very skeptical when I first made this purchase, but am so in love now that it has prompted me to write my first review on Amazon! I would highly recommend this item for anyone who is pregnant, or not! It is just so comfortable and I will continue to use it even after pregnancy! You really can’t beat the level of support and the convenient size and price of the item! This is a MUST have! I really can’t say enough about what a difference it has made in my quality of sleep for the last two months! I’m 25 weeks pregnant now and am sure this will continue to be my best friend until the very end! I even plan on bringing it to the hospital for my delivery! Purchase the Hiccapop now, you won’t regret it! Read more
I have ordered 5 different types of pregnancy pillows to try out over the course of the last few months. At this stage in my pregnancy (about 6 months), this pillow has been my top choice by far. I thought I would want the type that had a wedge/support for both my bello and back, but I ended up preferring the single wedge style. I tried two different single wedge pillows and this one exceeded the other by far. The option of the soft and firm sides was what really put this one over the edge for me. It's a little larger than the other one I tried, so I can't quite get as close to my partner at night for cuddling, but it was honestly not a big enough size difference to matter when you consider the difference that having the soft and firm sides made. This pillow supports my bump and helped my hip and back pain immensely. I have almost zero back pain anymore! I still get some hip pain, but I think it's pretty much unavoidable from here on out in pregnancy 😅 this pillow still helps a lot. I have also tried sleeping with it between my legs, which worked great. You can position the wedge in a way that fits with your curled-up legs and its just pretty comfortable. I have also used it as a cushion for my butt when sitting on the floor and that was a game changer as well. I just really love this pillow overall, and I highly recommend giving it a shot if you're looking for a wedge pillow. The customer service has been great, too! The company reached out to make sure my pillow arrived and that I was happy with it. They also offer a free lifetime warranty, so that's cool! I haven't registered for it yet but plan to asap.

Bought this pillow for my wife and she loves it so far. It has a firm side and a softer side which makes it versatile based on what you find comfortable. She has one of the bigger full body pregnancy pillows, but wanted more support for under her belly when she lays on her side and this does the trick. She was also surprised how comfortable it was as a between the legs pillow and as back support when sitting in a chair. Only downside was it smelled like the plastic it was wrapped in when it arrived but it was super easy to wash, which got rid of the smell. 10/10 recommend. Read more
I purchased this in my third month of pregnancy, when I started having round ligament pain, and am now in my sixth month. I have used it most nights, although I still roll away from it in my sleep (more often the bigger I get.) It definitely helped lift my belly the little bit it needed during the round ligament pain stage. It has a less firm side for earlier pregnancy and a more firm side for later pregnancy, which is nice for me now since I never know what will let me get some sleep. I love that this is a small solution that still allows my husband to sleep close to me. It is high quality and washable and has not lost its shape or support at all in three months. It rolls up into a tube shape and comes with a carrying bag. I've been able to bring it with on long car trips and camping trips. My only negative feedback would be that, for me, the pillow is a little too long or too short. I find that it supports my entire belly and half my... milk makers... which can be extremely uncomfortable and pinchy as they expand right along with my belly. Or I move it up to fully support the ladies and then my belly is only half supported. (I assume the intention is just to support the belly, but because I curl up my legs a bit, the pillow can't be moved down enough to be fully below the ta's up top.) I am 5'4 with a long torso so I'm not sure how its length would work for other women. I do also think this is becoming less functional for me as I grow and I will have to cave and get something additional to keep me on my side, as I wake up on my back several times per night. Overall, I would recommend as an affordable and high quality option to try. I'm pretty sure nothing will have you sleeping through the night throughout your pregnancy, but for the price, this is a solid option to try out. Read more
