Abdomen pain/pressure while sleeping

Bailey

This is my first pregnancy, so maybe this is normal? I’m 25 weeks today and sleeping has become very difficult. I’m woken up 10+ times per night because of extreme pressure in my abdomen, to the point where it’s painful. I sleep on my left side like the doctor says to and I have one of those pillows that keeps me on my left side. But every time it wakes me up, I have to stand up and walk around to relieve the pain, before I can lay down and try to fall back asleep. Is this typical?
