Do you have a body pillow? I used a body pillow for basically my entire pregnancy. Good luck!

Have you tried sleeping in a recliner?

olga13ny · July 2010

yes i have a body pillow but it works for me sometimes.. i had it since i found out i was pregnant maybe i will buy a new one.

i tried the couch lol i dont have a recliner .. i am guessing she is in my back because every time i laid down she kept moving and i couldnt get comfortable

Oh I remember those days. All I could do was surround myself with pillows, but I still woke up all night long. Hang in there!

are you comfortable sleeping on your stomach? I normally laid on my stomach for about 10 minutes at the beginning of the night just to relax/get comforable. The doctor told me as long as I was comfortable it was OK to do this for a short while.

I naturally sleep on my stomach but if i try now she starts kicking the crap outta me lol..

thanks guys for you suggestions and encouragement Big Smile

I hate to say it...but the exhaustion I felt at 32 weeks PG was nothing compared to 40 weeks PG...which was nothing compared to weeks 3-16 of life with DS.

I'm sorry you are uncomfortable though. Sleeping by myself helped sometimes!

Yep, the best I can recommend is lots of pillows... I basically built a fort around myself every night (DH LOVED that Stick out tongue ). Body pillows never worked for me. Regardless, I was still up hourly during the end of my pregnancy AND the last few weeks I was dealing w/insomnia, too - I could NOT fall asleep for anything. So irritating. I ended up napping whenever I could get comfortable.

Honestly, I'm up 1-2 times/night w/DS now, and even w/that, my sleep is SO much better because the time in between is much better quality sleep. Hang in there; you only have a few more weeks to go!
