How often during pregnancy did you sleep on your left side?

Question

I tried because It's supposed to be safer.

Answer

I did my while pregnancy only because it was comfy that way, leg over my pregnancy pillow n my man spooning me from behind

Answer

Never!! I Cldnt at all! That's why I never understood when I read about skewing on left side! It will hurt so bad. So it's always been right for me. I'm 37 weeks and I still sleep on my right! That left thing was a no go🙅🏽 this baby boy was not having it

Answer

I can't! Sleeping on either side makes me nauseated. I have to sleep in my back...

Answer

I usually sleep on my back or left side when I'm not pregnant, so sleeping on my left is still pretty doable. I usually wake up in weird twisted/diagonal positions though. (Anything to get comfortable!)

Sleeping on your back is risky when you are in the third trimester because the uterus compresses the vena cava and hinders circulation. My doctor told me if I HAVE to sleep on my back to have one shoulder/hip elevated so that it relieves pressure on the vena cava. And other than not sleeping flat on my back, just do anything to get sleep. Sleeping on your right side won't harm you or the baby.

Answer

I try but I always wake up in a crazy position cause I can NEVER get comfy
