Sleep and comfort are two things that are very tied together and also very elusive. It can be hard to find either of them at times, especially when the latter often requires the former. People have a number of tricks they can try to employ to get comfortable enough to sleep and various aides like weighted blankets and body pillows can help with this. But let’s say you wanted a more… unique body pillow. Something that’s a bit more, “a-peal-ing” than usual? Then we’ve got just the thing for you.
You NEED this Banana Pillow!

This is a banana body pillow. But unlike a standard banana, this one is not an actual fruit and also happens to be 70 inches long. For those who don’t readily convert inches to feet, that’s two inches shy of 6 feet. So, when it claims to be a body pillow, it really is a pillow fit for most people’s bodies. The exterior is polar fleece (also unlike real bananas) and you have two choices for innards. You can either get the pillow pre-stuffed, or get it hollowed out and stuff it yourself with whatever works for you. You want to stuff your giant banana with a bunch of regular bananas? Knock yourself out. Though maybe prepare yourself for the invasion of fruit flies you’re going to have.
Obviously everyone is different and is going to have different sleep styles, but body pillows can help those who feel like they need to do something with their arms, especially if you’re a side sleeper. Some people with back or leg issues often will use a pillow between their legs to which a body pillow can also work to that end. If you’re pregnant and looking for a good C shaped pillow, this would fit your needs. And if you’re going to give that a shot, why not do it with a giant banana? Worst case scenario you still have an interesting conversation piece if you throw it out onto your couch instead.
