I bought a v-pillow last week in M&S for £10 (including cover) - I had my op yesterday and it really helped me get some sleep. I would highly recommend getting one. Rach x

i got one for like £6 in linens direct

by rachyg1 13th July 2011, 8:25 pm

I thought it said £15 on the shelf but was a tenner on my receipt. Still good value at £15 as comfy. I think Argos do them cheaper still.

V Pillow was the best thing I bought, still use it now as it's so comfy to prop myself up in bed to read.
I got mine from argos and it was £6.99 or thereabouts.

Are these also known as cleavage pillows? not sure how you would use one? under Neck or around boob? ( I know this is a silly question) sorry girls!! :doh:

Hi Lookoutgirl!

I think you just prop up with your back to the middle of the V, that way you can sleep in an inclined position but and have our arms rest on the pillow part. Hopefully this will encourage you to stay in that position as well for some time.

In general, I don't like the idea of sleeping in an inclined position!! I tried it for a nap today and really had a hard time!!!!

oo I need one of these... x

This might sound really stupid, but I've never used a V pillow before and want to get one for my lift and BA, but how do you use it??

Does the V bit go at the top so your head is on it or at the bottom so the bottom of your back is on it?

i wouldn't have a clue either rach.. i used one when i was preg's with my twins.. but my belly lay on it.. lol

i without anyone to tell me different.. i would probably put the V bit at the base of my back.. i would of thought it would arch me backwards slightly, so not hunched over. and the 2 ends would hold my arms up

anyone ??

bey i got that completely backwards.. lol

Hi - 'V-pillows' are a god send and only £7.99 from Argos, althought you could use 2 single pillows to create the 'V'. IMO the more pillows the better.

Here is a picture of my partners 'arm chair in a bed' creation! Sooo comfortable and makes it easier to get in and out of bed. Note the one inch space left for him to sleep on bless him LOL!!!

The v pillows are the best! It really helped prop me up in bed and sit up in the morning with the dreaded morning Boob! There's no way I could gave got up out of bed lying flat. I used my pillow behind my bk to rest my arms on when I was sitting on the couch too xx

I bought a V pillow and used it for the week before my op it was so comfy and I took it 2 hospital with me it was great! Would def recommend as it keeps you propped up and makes it easier to get off the bed. Mine was £8.99(?) in argos xx

Is there a website where I can buy this pillow?! It looks like it would work so well! I must be prepared for my surgery...:)

by stokesy88 15th August 2011, 10:29 pm

Confused!!!!! Thought I would write on this thread as it is relevant...im just a bit thick i think!! I am looking for a V-pillow but im confused...on the Argos website they have one that says 'neck and head' and is £10, or they have a 'full body' one that is £20...will the £10 pillow be big enough?! xxx

by kiwigirl 15th August 2011, 10:45 pm

I think most girls on here get the one for a tenner that comes with the free pillow case x

by stokesy88 15th August 2011, 10:46 pm

Ok, thats what I thought, lol knowing me it would be a tiny one like those blow up neck pillows on the planes!! I looked at some of the reviews and it seems to be the right thing! I'll get one tomorrow! Thank you!! xxx

by kiwigirl 15th August 2011, 11:22 pm

HA!! Wouldn't that be a failure! It shows up, and all it does is help you rest your head on your own shoulder!!! Hehehe, no, I think you're on the right track v pillow? 184153

Prettyinpink I LOVE that wallpaper!

I bought one but didn't use it much. I mainly used lots and lots of normal pillows.
