Okay, I have been pregnant before and had many pregnancy pillows in my life so I am going to review this as honestly as possible, with all the knowledge I have on these things.I LOVE this pillow.Upon opening it was vacuum sealed pretty tight and I was skeptical of how large it would get, but after letting it “fluff” up for the time that the package suggests, it has gotten to a very nice size! It was actually a bit larger than I expected.I ordered the colour purple grey, but I would say it is more of a blue colour than purple. This doesn’t bother me at all- but if you’re expecting purple you aren’t going to get purple.It is incredibly soft, didn’t have any weird smells although I washed the pillowcase before using as the package suggested.It does a really great job of supporting my belly, as well as my back (which has helped my lower back pain immensely!). I also just love that I can completely wrap this pillow around myself and “nest” in it. It’s super versatile- I can fold it for extra support where I need it and it’s even really comfy for putting my legs/feet up when they get swollen.Unlike other pillows I’ve had, this doesn’t deflate. It isn’t scratchy. It isn’t too hard. It’s perfect.Incredible value for the price, and something I will keep after baby as it is just SO cozy. Big fan of this one!
