He still moves around and beats me up, so I figure he's fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2480704 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 20:48:01 +0000 jh524 2480704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee: thanks<br /> I slept on the guest bed last night and although my hips started to hurt, I didn't feel like my bump was getting squished! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2479292 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 22:58:49 +0000 Astro Bee 2479292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jh524: I remember being so uncomfortable at that point. My hips constantly hurt from laying on my side, so I really needed the mattress topper. But definitely remove it if it's making you feel squished. Hope it feels better. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2479284 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 22:30:56 +0000 jh524 2479284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee, @catomd00: it's only making me uncomfortable because I keep waking up<br /> And my bump is squished and I just worry about the baby. I'm thinking of taking it off! Preggo problems ! :/ thanks ladies </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2479266 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 21:49:28 +0000 catomd00 2479266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think you can hurt your baby from sleeping. If it was at that point of doing harm, your body will let you know because you'd be in pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2479251 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 21:30:37 +0000 Astro Bee 2479251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd only worry if it's making you uncomfortable, or causing you to sleep poorly/wake up more. There is no way that it's harming your baby. Your baby is protected by the amniotic sac/fluid, your uterus, and your belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-with-a-mattress-topper-in-3rd-trimester#post-2479130 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 20:06:56 +0000 jh524 2479130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been using a 4" mattress topper for this pregnancy. Used it for my previous pregnancy and never noticed this.<br /> I'm waking and feel as though I'm laying on my side too much. Baby will be pushed up high because the mattress topper is actually mis-shaping my bump... It's odd and I'm worried it's hurting baby.<br /> Has anyone experienced anything like this? </p>
