I've always been a devote stomach sleeper. Since being pregnant means no more of that, I'm sooo uncomfortable sleeping on my sides. My hips feel terrible! Does any one have any recommendations on positions or pillows! I can't keep doing this for another 19 weeks!

Or sometimes I just use one of DH's legs and an arm to curl up with )

I got lucky and my best friend gave me her snoogle since she is done having babies. I sleep with it to my front, and kinda spoon it with my top leg over the pillow.
I have had really bad hip pain too, but stretching really helps. There is a prenatal yoga video on the site below that I love for this, called "helpful hip openers"... it's pretty great.

ETA: I put the pillow between my knees.
Eta words. Ugh.
I have a snoogle and I'm kind of "meh" about it. Usually putting a regular pillow between my legs works just as well. I also can't sleep in the same position all night---I have to switch sides, and that is a pain with a big body pillow.
I have been waking up a lot on my back. I know they say not to worry, but it's a little disconcerting. I guess I should try the snoogle again--at least it makes it hard to move.
