When did you start sleeping on your left side?

Question

I'm a stomach sleeper and I know that's not good in pregnancy. I'm trying to see when I need to change to sleeping on my left side. I'm 4 weeks 3 days and this is my first so I'm trying to do everything I can to help this little bean. Thank you for any information ❤️

Answer

I switch from side to side all night long lol 
But youre fine to sleep on your tummy until it becomes uncomfortable for you.

Answer

I toss and turn every night and often wake up on my back. I slept on my stomach until like 22 weeks when it was no longer comfortable for me to do so. It's safe as long as it's comfy

Answer

Needing to sleep on the left side is a myth, no actual science behind it. Sleep however you're comfortable.

Answer

I  might be  weird but is there a  doughnut  pillow out there.

Answer

I sleep on my right side now because I can't sleep on my left.

Answer

I slept on my tummy until it was uncomfortable at like 21 weeks. I honestly sleep more on my right because it’s more comfy. I try to sleep on my left but end up on my right each time 😂

Answer

If I got to bed full from dinner I physically CANT sleep anywhere but my left side or else I feel like I'm gonna puke ☺️ been that way for months. Yay.

Answer

Don't worry so much about your sleeping position. You're fine to stay sleeping on your stomach until it becomes uncomfortable. Same goes for your back. If your having problems on your back your body will tell you and you'll move. The left is just the best position because it supplies the placenta with the best blood flow. Unless you prop yourself up though I guarantee you won't that way anyway though. Plus if one way is more comfortable than another while pregnant you're going to sleep that way.
