Is is safe?

Question

I try to sleep on my back or on my side but I always wake up sleeping on my stomach every morning. I can't control my body when I'm sleeping lol. I am 14 weeks and 6 days. What do you ladies recommend or who else does it?

Answer

Hi. I've been told that sleeping on your front is safe, just uncomfortable as you get bigger! I was advised that the sooner you stop sleeping on your back, and only sleeping on your side is the safest! The only position they ask you to avoid is sleeping on your back as this gives risks to both you and baby.

Answer

Yes sleeping on your stomach is safe. As you get bigger it'll more than likely be so uncomfortable you won't be able to though. Once you hit 16 weeks you shouldn't intentionally sleep on your back. If you wake up & are on your back, no biggie, just turn to your side. But the bigger your uterus gets it can put pressure on the vein that's in your abdomen & not only restrict your blood flow to your heart but also to the placenta.
