Ask your dr for a sleeping pill. I am 32 weeks and the sleeping is bad and gets better then gets worse again. I have a really bad bladder infection right now tho so I'm sleeping terrible! But my dr allowed me to sleep on my back til I was 24 weeks. If its easier for you to do that I'm sure its fine. Baby is still tiny right now so its ok if that's more comfy then sleep on your back.

I put a fan directly on me and slept on my left side with a pillow between my legs and a small blanket wedged into my chest so i didnt roll on my belly.

I found pregnancy pillow helped me  it was one that wad like a normal pillow with a long pillow down the side for your body. and a fan in your room. Try your best to.sleep because when baby comes you won't sleep Much. Enjoy your time to yourself and try to get comfortable so you can cram in lots of sleep. I have an 11month old who still doesbt sleep well at night and 8weeks pregnant with baby number two. I miss sleep haha. I hope you get lots of rest and congrats on your pregnancy
