Anyone else experience this so early on? + anyone got any tips for me?  | Hey your a day futher on than me and i do the same with the pillow. Find it much easier to be able to fall asleep. i can't lie on my back as it feels like i have a small weight pushing me into the matress haha

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am so with you!!! I always laid on my front before.... now I am 25 weeks and it is totally impossibe to get comfortable- at first it was really stressing me out- lying there begging with god to let me sleep making bargains like "I wont have any fizzy drinks this week if you please let me sleep" etc but now I just get up, make hot chocolate and watch Extreme Makeover: Home Edition!!!
OH comes down to find me at 3/4am most mornings and I am sobbing my heart out cos a girl dying with cancer has been given a swimming pool for rehab (or some similarly traumatic story with a happy ending)- thank god for Sky! so much trashy TV at my fingertips!
It's definitely adding to my pregnant mush brain though. Can barely remember where I parked the car most days! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I just started experiencing it, but its because of the way she decides to lay when I am on my side. She gets all squirmy when I am trying to sleep. The pillow is a great idea... I don't have much more advice, sorry!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have found that from quite early on as well. I found lying on your side with your bump supported by a pillow is quite good. The Dream Genii pillow is good as well and can be used as a feeding pillow afterwards.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Welcome to the second trimester
I've been having trouble getting comfortable for a few weeks too, but I already have a pretty big bump, so it's put down to that. I'm usually up til about 5am or so where I just pass out out of sheer exhaustion! |
