I sleep with a big pregnancy pillow. The past couple nights I have woken up with pain in my belly after laying on my right side. So I switch positions and lay on my left side, but the pain continues. Eventually it goes away and I can go to sleep (I usually sit up for a while.) I don’t feel this pain during the day.
Yesterday I felt baby was not moving as much, but I did a kick count at 3am last night and had 10 movements after a half hour. I’m probably just being paranoid.
Any one else experience similar pain? I’m wondering if it’s just normal pain from not being comfortable.
How far along are you? Everything hurts when I sleep, and for about an hour after I get up.
Almost 27 weeks. I always feel sore like I ran a marathon when I wake up, but this is painful. Just the past couple nights though. My sleep has been horrible pretty much the whole pregnancy.
What part of your belly? I get this down low and sometimes way off to the side.
This is what I had too. I couldn’t lay on my right side pretty much at all. I thought you weren’t supposed to sleep on your right side though. Definitely ask your doctor. Mine thought it was from everything stretching and shifting. My pain only got worse the further along I got. I hope that’s not the case for you.
