Seatbelt pillow.

I just got my seatbelt pillow today in time for surgery tomorrow morning. Velcro it in the car all ready to go. It looks like it going to be really helpful so I just wanted to share. It was on Amazon and it’s for Caesarian’s or Mastectomies. I just thought If it was fastened to the seatbelt it would be far less likely to shift in an accident (god forbid) leaving the seatbelt loose than my bed pillow . It was $19.99 for the one that could get here overnight. Here is the link if anyone is interested. https://a.co/d/8nw1RdU

    I read some ones advice on here to take a bed pillow and hug it on the way home. Our roads here are full of pot holes and it did help somewhat.

    Yea. That’s what I brought for my sleeve and it did work but I worried about the seatbelt being loose if we were in an accident. I was excited to find this because it shouldn’t slip off in an accident

    That's similar to the one that I got for myself from Amazon. When I was sleeved I used a stuffed animal, he was a long, flat, squishy dog. Whatever works! ?

Just an update. I will be three weeks out tomorrow and I of course had to move it to the drivers side but I am still using this pillow. It helps keep it from running at this point and i hope that I don’t have to slam on the brakes but if I do I hope it helps some. ??‍♀️
