Sleeping on back?

I cannot get comfortable any other way at night and wind ip sleeping on my back. Is it ok or should I change the way I sleep? I am 21 weeks pregnant

I’m 30+5 and still wake up on my back, but I’ve yet to have any issues with it.

Once you get further along you should not sleep on your back. I heard it can cause baby to lay on the cord and restrict blood flow to and from the placenta
