I know I've seen old threads on this before, but search isn't working right now.  I need a ****yx pillow.  I now have no ass, and I have a big road trip in a little more than a week, and with 10 hours of driving a day, I need one for the car.  Anyone have any recommendations?

Right now, I'm looking at these two:

Anyone have any advice?

I have the cushion in the second link and love it. I  could not sit in my office or go on a long car trip without it.

I have some (not like yours) and could not imagine being in a car without one. 

Also -consider lumbar support-uncles your car really have good one.

Good call on the lumbar.  Fortunately, the car we're taking does have a pretty good one, so I should be okay.  Thanks.

I am so right there with you ! I also have no ass after surgery ('08) . I use a swim ring looking thing from cvs drug store. I went on a super long road trip & all I can say is "don't forget it" !! Went from Fl to ME & it was a Godsend ! I also brought along other pillows to put behind my neck & even one I could put up in the window of the van to put my feet up with! I will absolutely fly next time !! I do miss my ass though (sigh)

The Boppy Breastfeeding pillow is a WAY better coxyx/hemorrhoid pillow than anything I've ever had.  Link below.

Oh man, we had one of those when my daughter was born!  I wish I would've kept it now!

After an 11 hour flight to Brazil where I thought my ass was broken, I started a search. This is what I use when I'm traveling now.

GSeat Ultra

 

Its not soft a cushy, but it does the job for me. I carry it wherever I go now.

Thanks for this reminder!  I'm flying to Norway in a week (omg, a week?!) and I should remember to take my butt pillow.
