Im tossing n turning all night bc of severe hip pain. Body pillow plus extra pillow between legs do not help :( feel like a rotisserie chicken that has to be turned every 30 minutes.  Doctor says its just body getting ready

They say to use a body pillow (or any pillow will do)you put it between your knees, its ment to take the pressure off, made no difference for me, am kept awake buy it, tossin and turnin all night, due in 2 days, thank goodneess, enjoy! :)

Hi hun,
How far along are you?
Are you supporting your belly and legs good when you sleep? If not, try to have more pillows supporting your body at night.

Bring it up on your next appointment, your doctor might be able to recommend a physio or some exercises you can do to ease the pain.
But generally, making a baby is uncomfortable work. :)
