I still can't get comfortable in bed - how do you?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
DS has always needed to snuggle up against me and we mostly lie on our sides facing each other. I'm a terrible sleeper myself and find it hard to get comfortable, even after 10 months of co-sleeping! What are your tricks for getting comfortable in bed with your LOs? I try to tuck a pillow in behind my back and it helps some. I wish there were a pillow I could buy that helped me in all the places I need it.

Any suggestions?

We sleep face to face with a pillow behind my back and one for my head (a very squishy one). I curl up around him with my arm above his head or if he needs extra cuddling, I cradle him in my arm. I wouldn't call it 'comfortable'by my old definition of comfortable (pre baby), but I can fall asleep that way so it's comfortable enough!

My DS is 29 months and I still use my pregnancy pillow to sleep. It's a Snoogle (http://leachco.stores.yahoo.net/snoogle.html). I sleep with it behind me so part of it curls up under my head and then the other end I roll up between my knees. The middle section gives my back support for all the nighttime nursing! I adjust it so there is less under my head and more bunched up between my knees so the head pillow part doesn't end up on my DS (if that makes sense).
