sleep side?


How do you ladies sleep? I know we are supposed to sleep on our left side but after 15 minutes after have to turn to my right side because my left side hurts.... I end up back and forth throughout the night. I've tried a pillow between my legs but after awhile it just bugs me.

I have a body pillow on one side, and a king size pillow on the other. I usually have the pillow under my bump, but not my boobs. I also have it between my legs. I also have a thicker pillow for my head.

I always used to sleep on my left side until i got pregnant now i actually find it uncomfortable.
I go off to sleep on my right hand side and as i get a really bad back if i lie on my back i wedge 2 pillows behind meso im more diagonal if i try and one for my bump in front.I also have 3 for my head so im propped up a bit. Its like a big U shaped nest going on!! OH hugs the pillow in the middle thinking its me lol
i tried a small pillow for between my legs but found i lost it in the night!so gave up on that.
I tend to wake up like clockwork at 4am most nights now and then mentally make sure i lie on my left side until time to get up.
i dont move a lot in bed now.....i think because it seems like such an effort to roll over my body has given up lol
Im sure there is worse to come for us all in the sleep dept!!

Normally fall asleep on my right side, and roll over to the opposite side and back several times a night. Usually end up back on my right when it's time to get up.

I also use a pillow between my legs that is under my bump too. I have a little pillow "roll" that I use if I don't want a bulky pillow... (like when I'm cuddling with DH
