The Boppy Total Body Pillow is designed in more of a C shape than most normal body pillows. Supposedly it also takes up less room than the average body pillow, for which many husbands are probably very grateful for when it comes to their beds. This pillow is designed to be used for your entire body - from your head to you legs. One end is used instead of your normal pillow, while the other end goes between your legs to support your growing belly.

The pillow itself is thinner on one end and thicker at the other. It is covered in a pima cotton pillow case that is removable and washable. You can also place the pillow behind you for back support.

This is the perfect pillow if you find that the average body pillow is too big or too fluffy. This is a no nonsense pillow and there is not extra padding to get in your way. This is why it also works really well postpartum to help with nursing and sitting up in bed after you've had the baby.
