Sleeping?

Question

Im 12 weeks (will be 13 on Wednesday) and im a tummy sleeper. I know i have enough fat in my belly to protect baby but subconsciously i wont go onto my belly during sleep, so i end up one of my sides, but i notice my hips KILL me in the morning. I have a tempurpedic mattress so i know its not my bed, idk what to do to help it. Im not a back sleeper at all, anyone go through this?? If so what did you do to help?

Answer

My doctor told me it was fine to sleep on my stomach as long as I was comfortable. I ultimately stopped around 25ish weeks because I got huge. But she also told me that your body will tell you if you need to get off of your belly or if your causing harm while sleeping on your stomach, she said that I would roll over if need be🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Get the pregnancy pillow from amazon girl, you will NOT be disappointed. I was having bad lower back pain and the pillow has resolved all issues!

Answer

Get a body pillow. It helps. They have these huge body/pregnancy pillows you can buy. I just have a flatter king size pillow I keep between my legs.

Answer

It won’t hurt baby at all to sleep on tummy. You can sleep on tummy till it becomes uncomfortable for you. Back sleeping isn’t good after so far along because it’s not good to be flat on your back. But for now it’s fine to sleep on tummy.
