cant sleep at night :(

I use to could just lay anyway and fall asleep. Now I cant find a comfy spot and I wake up every few hours. Im 11 weeks, I thought that only happens when your farther along and I thought it wouldnt bother me because I use to could sleep anyway. Any suggestions on what could help me sleep?

Im 22 weeks and I have a hard time sleeping too. What helps me is putting a pillow between my legs. Just fold a regular pillow in half and put it there. They have special pillows for that but they are pricey. I just bought a walmart pillow for $3 and it works great. No problems when doing that! Hopefully that helps :)

Thanks:) I'll try it tonight. I have a really long pillow and I saw on a movie that the girl would lay it long ways and put part of it between her legs and snuggle with the other half, but I didnt think of trying it until just now lol

Yeah I hadn't thought of doing that till probably a week ago when I just couldnt stand not sleeping anymore. I was tossing and turning all night and couldnt get comfortable. Eventually I read something about getting one of those pregnancy pillows but I just couldnt afford one of those! So decided to try just a regular pillow and the next night I was sleeping like a baby! It works wonders. :)
