My hips were extra achy weeks 6-9. I always sleep with a body pillow and have a temper pedis mattress. If you're new to side sleeping this could be the problem. If your mattress is tough get a nice foam topper and get a body pillow. Essentials for side sleeping.
Yes, I usually sleep on my stomach but since I've been feeling so nauseous all the time I've switched to my side. I wake up with sore hips, sore ribs and for some reason sore ears!
