I agree I stuff a bunch of pillows around me also and half the time fall asleep sitting up!

Tell me about it, I'm 38 weeks Tuesday and my 3 year old toddler climbs in bed with me at night to so it's super uncomfortable! My back is aching constantly, plus Braxton hicks all day and night no matter how much I move or walk. I've found putting a heating pad on my lower back helps me a little.

I turn 38 weeks in 2 days and can't get comfortable either. My husband and I have temporarily switched rooms with my son who's bed is a lot firmer than ours (although his bed is a queen and ours a king, my hub hates this). Its has helped me sleep a little longer. Also pillows behind me and between my legs help as well.

I also just turned 38 weeks today and I have to sleep in the corner of my bed sitting up with tons of pillows. Laying down hurts my hips. It's actually pretty comfortable.
