Hi everyone, I am only 15 weeks pregnant and a deep sleeper and keep waking up in the night in awkward positions where I’ve been squishing my bump and I wake up in pain or with my heart beating fast because I’m restricting blood flow. I have a basic pregnancy pillow but I find it very firm and also have woken up with that directly pushing into the bump etc so not sure what to do! Just wondered if anyone has any advice as I’m worried for the safety of the bump during the night times.

This might help:
