Sore hips!

JulesFo · February 2012

Oh man, it seems to be happening earlier this time. Sleeping on my side makes me feel like my hips are bruised. And then there is the low backache that accompanies it. I've tried the wedge pillow, but not much help. DH just brought home a memory foam pad...fingers crossed! Anyone have any luck with anything?

This is happening to me too! I wake up every 30 minutes and have to switch side. No advice just wanted to tell you that you are not alone.

I just got back from Disneyland and sleeping on the hotel's huge pillows (and I'm sure the large amount of walking) made me wake up with such bad hip pain. Last night was my first night back in my own bed with my snoogle pillow and I slept great w/ no pain! I'm a believer in the power of the snoogle- I went through 2 pregnancies w/ out one and I'm SO happy to have one now!

Squats seem to help me, but I'm noticing the pain coming earlier this time too.

I don't remember it being this bad last time but ug my hips kill me. I don't know what I will do when I can't sleep on my stomach.

Oh, I can relate. Even before I was pregnant I had some really bad hip and sciatic pain, even from sitting just slightly off-balance. It's HORRIBLE now. Between hip and back pain, bathroom trips, and waking up with painfully numb fingers/hands (I'm thinking the last one may be carpel tunnel, I work in an office), sleeping has been interesting to put it mildly. I'm apparently 23-going-on-104. I hope you find something that works for you!

I am only a lil over 11 weeks and already have this problem. It started 2 weeks ago. And when I was pregnant with DS it was awful!! Time to invest in a snuggle or body pillow!

Update--- the 2-inch memory foam really helped me!!! DH got a twin size one to put on my side of our king bed. Then I used my wedge pillow to prop up the tummy a bit. Big difference this morning! Hope everyone gets some relief.
