Sleeping in a sitting position?

Question

I have a pregnancy pillow and I sleep with a pillow between my legs, plus one extra pillow behind my back for added support and still I wake up throughout the night with extremely sore hips from trying to stay on my side. It's so painful that it's hard to get next to any rest at night.

I've had to start propping myself up with all the pillows into a seated position and elevate my legs just to get some shut eye and relieve some pressure from my hips. Does anyone else do this or have any other solutions that have worked for them?

Answer

I had the same issue. What has helped me is leaning into my pregnancy so I'm tilted into it with part of it under my belly. This helps relieve your hips and knees because you aren't entirely perpendicular to the mattress.

Answer

One of my fb friends suggested this on fb. She said its bigger then it looks you put your stomach in it, it's really comfortable and helps her sleep with out all the pressure on her hips

Answer

I have found that laying on my side with a pillow behind my back helps - with the pillow behind you back, I then lean into it. Hope that makes sense because it REALLY helped with my hip pain. So you'll be between side and back laying.
