Sore legs when sleeping... anyone else

Jessica • 👨‍👩‍👦👼👼🌈

I have always slept on my side, but now pain in my legs is waking me up. I don't have any bruises, but best way to describe it is from my hip to my knee I feel like Im laying on a very tender bruise. Does anyone else have a sensation like this? It's essentially my upper thighs. I'll fall asleep for awhile then wake up in pain and rotate to the other side and do this all night. Exercise and stretching doesnt help, nor make it worst. I sleep with pillows between my legs. Is it b/c of my weight gain? Any advice? Thank you
