| My DIL is 9 weeks out from having a baby. Her body and joints are really hurting - no contractions. Have any of y'all used BOT when pregnant? I have contacted BOT tonight, but don't expect an answer until tomorrow. I don't have people BOT, only the saddle pad and mesh sheet. |

Location: Opelousas, LA | Not sure about the BOT, but my doctor gave me a script for a muscle relaxer and told me to only take half a dose at bedtime, helped way more than I thought it would. If it's in the budget, it may help to get a new mattress, softer was better for me. |

Location: Southeast Louisiana | I have a BOT t-shirt I wore while I was pregnant. I had terrible back problems. I didn't find that it helped that much. But, then again, I have honestly never found it to be much good FOR ME for aches and pains. I wear it routinely to sleep in. It's just like wearing an extra heavy t-shirt. Keeps me a little warmer, but that's about it. Like everything else, it probably works great for some and not at all for others. It's like that for horses, too.
It might be worth a try. You never know what might work and I'm sure she's desperate for some relief.
Sorry. Hope she finds an answer for her body aches. She's in the home stretch, but I remember how miserable that was. I carried a stool around with me, I couldn't walk ten yards without my back hurting so bad I had to sit down. |

Location: on the fine line between insanity and geniusness | I have a HORRIBLE back. My dad and I were in a wreck in 2010... before I got pregnant I got injections every 90 days and have already had hip surgery. Pregnancy was miserable for me until I bought my BOT blanket. I literally lived under it. I was on bed rest for 7 weeks and stayed under my BOT the whole time. Literally the best money I've ever spent! If she doesn't want to buy the human blanket, wash your mesh sheet and let her wrap up in it! That's what I did until I got mine. I LOVE my BOT products. |

| THANK YOU LADIES SO MUCH! I appreciate your replies and I am going to ask her if she wants to try my BOT horse stuff. I wasn't that miserable when I was pregnant so it just kills me, my husband and my son to see her in pain. She is not a complainer, so to me, that makes me feel worse for her.  |
