Lower abdomen tightness when waking up

Hello mummies, I can sleep on my sides and on my back but whenever i wake up i feel my lower abdomen so so so heavy. Does anyone experience the same? Anyway to reduce the heaviness feeling in my belly? Or should i change my sleeping position? 27 weeks now

Same!! I get the sharp stitch feeling on the opposite sides when I lie on my sides (I think is the round ligaments stretching due to the weight of the uterus) and if I lie on my back for long I get a numbing feeling on my lower back 😣😣😣 I’m just entering 29 weeks and it’s already getting so uncomfortable, I’m so worried for what’s to come!!
