My hips and knees hurt a lot. It sucks. I just flip from side to side. What about taking tylenol?

Re: What do you do to make yourself comfortable
Comfortable? Whats that
I keep a fortress of pillows around me and just toss and turn all night in between bathroom trips. Keeping a big pillow between my legs seems to help a bit. and propping a flatter pillow partially under my stomach for support helps as well.

Re: What do you do to make yourself comfortable
Sleeping hasn't been the same for some time now, but I use more pillow to prop up my head/neck/shoulders (if you get heartburn) and then between the legs when/if your back is hurting.
I also have a memory foam mattress topper and I think that's helped cushion me a little better than a traditional mattress.

Re: What do you do to make yourself comfortable
When I was further along in my first pregnancy, I put a full size pillow between my legs, laid on my left size and had a long (rectangle shaped) throw pillow behind my back. It gave my back some support but didn't allow me to sleep fully on my back, which was uncomfortable at the end. The back support was good, and the pillow between my knees/legs help keep my spine and hips in alignment.
It was a process getting in and out of bed, but once I was there, i was pretty comfortable.

Re: What do you do to make yourself comfortable
Sometimes I find sleeping on the couch helps because I can lean on it to support my back and a pillow in between my thighs. The hips hurt no matter what though. It's rough!
