Hi there! Am due Dec. 17th, 30wks now. I also sleep on left side witb a body pillow wedge under belly and between legs which seems to help most of the night. But eventually am woken up with same pain left hip and shoulder hurting. So I just flip over tibthe right side. I know it's best to sleep on left side, because of better blood flow to baby, but left pain is unbearable sometimes. Wish I had a better advice :( Good luck momma♡ best wishes ♡
Im going through the same thing! Im 30 weeks and some nighta just cant get comfy. I also wake up with hip pain and shoulders hurting so I rotate. I try not to sleep to longnon the right side tho cause I'm worried about her not getting thw right oxygen too lol. I can be such a paranoid mommy! I would love to figure out a way to get more comfy on the lwft side to!
thanks. at least it helps to know im not the only person. thanks
I'm 29 weeks, due Dec 24 and have been having hip pain as well. The last couple of nights, I've used three pillows - hugging one for my head/upper body, one in between my knees and another in between my ankles. Occasionally a fourth small one under my belly. It's helped quite a bit! I've also heard that stretching or doing pre-natal yoga before bed and when you wake up can help quite a bit too. Hang in there, not much longer Momma! :)
thanks. that helps! it wont be long....
