Body Pillow
For those of you who had an abdominal hysterectomy, mine will be my old C-section scar, is there any specific type/shape body pillow you would recommend?

Re: Body Pillow
I used a small throw pillow from my couch for coughs and sneezes. For sleeping, I placed a full pillow over my abdomen to protect myself from nighttime cat visits.

Re: Body Pillow
I am using 2 body pillows right now. I have one on either side of me so when I turn over in the middle of the night I'm not uncomfortable.  I sleep on my stomach normally but now I'm sleeping on my side with my knee on the body pillow. Very comfortable for my belly. Hope that helps.

Re: Body Pillow
A small pillow is also helpful for car rides!
