The verdict
Not everyone wants to wrestle a five-foot pillow into bed, and the Boppy wedge is the answer: a small, firm-yet-cushioned triangle you tuck under your bump, lower back, or hips for pinpoint support. It's cheap, travels easily, and works alongside your regular pillows instead of replacing them. The catch is that it only supports one spot at a time, so if you want head-to-knee alignment you'll still want a full-body pillow. Skip it if you're after all-over support, but for the price it's a near-no-brainer add-on, especially for travel or smaller beds.
