Sleep: Not uncommon. Being pregnant is sometimes a pain! sleep is disrupted. Lay on your side. Take Benadryl or tylenol (acetaminophen) pm as needed. Nothing stronger.

Common: This is a very common problem during pregnancy. Medications either prescription or over the counter should be recommended by your obstetrician. Rest when you can and best of luck to you.
