I’m up every hour and a half.
Tried not drinking after 7, hasn’t helped.
The main reason I wake, is because my shoulder, hip, knee and ankle hurt from lying on my side.
Before pregnant slept on my tummy. Pillows made the pain unbearable, so have given up on it.
Sorry not much help, just know you aren’t alone.

Oh I totally sympathise. I find myself awake every couple of hours because its uncomfortable to sleep lying on my side.

My back, shoulder, leg, foot or any other number of body parts goes numb and that wakes me and then of course I need a wee, because well I'm awake and it half 1 in the morning so what else would I be doing. This heat is also not helping.

I wish I had some helpful advice but so far nothing I've tried has helped, I just didn't want you thinking you were alone.
