Last night...

With my wife's pregnancy she's been having a little bit of back pain at night and bought what's called a snoogle to help her stay on her side. Here's what they look like:



Last night I came to bed at around 11:00. As I was getting ready for bed, my wife was engaged in a full-on struggle trying to free herself from the snoogle.

What an interesting invention! I love to sleep on my side, and put a pillow between my knees as well to prevent back pain in the morning. I will have to put that on my shopping list for after the tax rebates come in.

Mr. T, this has actually helped her back a lot the past couple of nights.

Esteban, I'm glad I could be your source.

Yeah, when I was awaiting the birth of Mister Awesome, I used one of those full length body pillows. It gives that between the knees support, and also something to cuddle on topside, but without the feeling that C is for Constriction, and hey, that's good enough for me.

It appears that she's gotten used to the new pillow and it's really helping her back. We use a full length body pillow for our regular pillow. They're nice.
