I'm pregnant, having difficulty adjusting to a new position of sleep, and thought a body pillow might be the solution. I wasn't willing to spring for the super expensive ones, and after reading the reviews thought this one might be satisfactory. I'm so far very impressed with it. While some might prefer something more solid, this is pleasantly fluffy without any sign of flattening before its time. Indeed, this is a pillow that puffs right back to its intial shape. The size is perfect for me, and it compacts well for snuggling. Love it.
