For the last 3 weeks or so, sleeping is a nightmare! I feel like my hip bones just push and grind together all the time. I haven't had many complaints during this pregnancy, but this has gotten to be really bothersome, I was up from 3:40AM to 6AM, I had to get a bath at 4:30 because I was so uncomfortable!
It's my lower back, my hips, and my butt. I have tried lots of pillow tricks... like one wedged behind my lower back one folded and in between my legs, I even tried sleeping in like a sitting position the last two nights because I'm at least slightly more comfortable when I'm on the couch. But... it seems like when I don't move for a little while, everything kinda jams together when I go to stand up! If I get off the couch or bed I feel like it takes a few minutes before I get the courage to move.
Anyways... I'm just wondering if this is something a lot of you are experiencing this far along or if it seems abnormal?
p.s. I hit 35/35 yesterday whoo! Just gotta make it a little longer. ;-)
