Bed resters - leg/foot/hip discomfort? WDYD?

Hi ladies,

Perhaps I've just been crazy lucky to have gotten to 32/3 with minimal discomfort, but last nite, my hips, legs, ankles and feet were (and still are) so uncomfortable!  I sleep with a variety of pillows, have a fabulous husband who, even at 3am, will massage my back, but nothing helped.  Suggestions?  

Thanks!

    I found I had a lot of aches and pains the first day or two at home after my first two weeks in the hospital, but it just kind of went away after a few days. Agree the hospital beds are probably more supportive than bed/couch at home. Sorry I don't have any suggestions!

    I think it was an acclimation (on top of 11+ weeks of bed rest!) - last nite was better :)

    Thank you both.
