I've always been a side sleeper most of my life. And I just started noticing a few weeks ago, every time I wake up, the inner portions of both knees (the part of the knees that touch together when you lay on your side) are really sore when I wake up, and if I press on the during the day they're still sore. Anyone experience anything like that?? So weird!

Yup. My bones are actually pressing together. Weird! I now sleep with a pillow between my knees. My chiropractor insisted.

I can't sleep on my side without a pillow between my knees. It helps to align your spine and gives a little bit of cushion between the knees.

Oh, yes! . I have to "align" my legs to make sure they are not on top of each other when sleeping on my side since it's "bone on bone" now! Ha! And that is the truth !!! Not complaining about the problem since I NEVER thought i would have this issue!

Ha! Yes! My 4 year old told me last week that she doesnt like my bones! She misses the warm squishy mommy.

My butt is the worst tho..its all tailbone now. The knees took a bit to get used too, but now its the waist and hips i feel the most. Shoulders tol..never thought i would see skinny shoulders or clavicles!

I have found I have a similar issue. I used to be a stomach sleeper. Now, I cannot get comfortable on my stomach unless I put a huge pillow underneath me! I've gone from a stomach sleeper to a back sleeper. very strange indeed! I still find myself trying to lay on my stomach to get comfortable and fall asleep sometimes, and then quickly realize...this isn't working anymore before rolling onto my back.

I feel your pain! I'm exactly the same. I can hardly sit at times.

OMG! I have just been noticing the knee thing when I sleep! I will have to try a pillow tonight!

I've had arthroscopic surgery on both knees and was told by my orthopedic surgeon to sleep with a pillow between my knees. I guess from the other replies this does help, but most times I wake up with the pillow being on the floor! Before this sleeve surgery I was told I need a total knee replacement, but I'm hoping as the weight comes off that I won't need it. Right now, I'm scheduled to get the gel shots in that knee in two weeks.

Yep. I've been sleeping with a pillow between my knees. Noticing the tailbone more and more these days. Still waiting to see clavicle bones.

This is the strangest thing that I just ran across this thread because two nights ago, it's the first time I noticed this exact issue! I didn't think much about it, but reading everyone else's response let's me know I'm not crazy! I'm grabbing a pillow to try that tonight!
