It helps to have a good mattress and the right pillow support for you head.too big or too small pillow can cause neckache. Try getting some Icy Hot for your back maybe that will help or a heating pad.

If you feel more comfortable asking first then go ahead. Tylenol helped me alot. After 2 doses you may be good for 2 months!!!! Personally the Rapid Release is my favorite! Good Luck.

  Re: What can make me sleep at night Reply Contact HI, I also have trouble sleeping at night now with my second pregnancy, 20 wks. It is very frustrating and I just try to relax about it and read some books until I can sleep again. i want to tell you that with my first pregnancy I was able to stop my back pain with prenatal yoga once a week. If I didn't go for a week, my back hurt, but if I went I was fine. Then you can do come of the exercises at home too. A little bit can go a long way.

  Re: What can make me sleep at night Reply Contact I had horrible hip pain at less then 20 weeks it was awful , id get home from working on my feet all day and get home try to change into sweats and end up throughing them accross the room and sitting on the bed bawling my eyes out becouse it hurt so bad to lift my leg to get them on , it was horrible horrible pain, i could never afford the body mommy pillow if you cant try piling pillows up around your body and one of my ob/gyns said that if taking tylonol just once didnt help that i could take one a day to help off set it ahead of time and as preventative but you should probly ask your doc first- good luck!
