Sleepy But Cannot Sleep :(

Hello mummies, I sometimes have troubles sleeping even though I feel fatigue. It's like I can't sleep on my sides because (at times) my tummy will feel uncomfortable. I can only afford to sleep straight. I'm at my 10th week now. Anyone shared the same experience as me? ☹️

My gynae says I can slp on my back till end of 2nd trimester. I only need to sleep on side during 3rd trimester. I am a 100% sleep straight kind. However, I start to try to adjust sleeping on side near end of 2nd trimester so that I can slowly transit to sleeping on side when the time comes. Now in 3rd trimester, I really miss sleeping on my back .

I've been sleeping in my back all along but now I'm starting to feel a small weight on my tummy and I realized that I tend to pee often when I lay on my back compared to my sides 😂 just as much as uncomfortable it feels to sleep on my sides, I tried to tuck in small pillows here and there
