This SI joint pain near my lower back and hip has become so bad at night yaar, every time i turn it hurts and i barely sleep. Im 27 weeks now. What positions or pillow tricks worked for you all? Im desperate for some proper rest.
That hip and joint pain was rough for me in the last trimester. A pillow between my knees while sleeping on the side made a big difference, my physio suggested it. Take it slow when turning in bed, that helped me a lot.
My doctor cleared me for some gentle prenatal stretches and they really eased the SI joint stiffness. Side sleeping with a pillow supporting the belly and knees was a lifesaver. Only do exercises if your doc okays them though.
I used to panic that the pain meant something wrong but it's quite common apparently. Still I mentioned it to my gynac just for peace of mind and she reassured me. The pregnancy pillow honestly saved my sleep.
