Are you sleeping on your stomach?

Question

Hi everyone, 7 weeks here. Just wondering if anyone is sleeping on their stomach/if it is safe to do so. I have been trying not to but unfortunately I sometimes wake up in that position anyway - my whole life that's how I've slept. I try to bend my knee so I won't be able to roll over. Is it even a problem to sleep on the stomach?

Answer

I prefer to sleep on my stomach and still am when I want to. I missed it greatly with my last pregnancy lol. My doctor told me last time that you’ll know when you shouldn’t anymore because you’ll feel it and have discomfort, so whenever you start to feel like there’s a small ball under you (only way I can describe) I would start side sleeping only 😊

Answer

Doctor told me to sleep on my stomach as long as I can. When it’s too uncomfortable then you just go to your side. Same goes for the back

Answer

I tend to sleep on my stomach too, fortunately i get hit with nausea really strong so i can't stay that way. I heard it's okay until about the 2nd trimester. A body pillow can be really helpful too with helping you stay on your side or back

Answer

I sleep however I can fall asleep at this point. I’m 6+5 and I’m taking advantage of it as long as I can!

Answer

I still do, as far as I know its not a problem until you are farther along when baby is right there. I'd say, after 3 months you shouldn't, but good idea to try and get in the habit of sleeping on your side now

Answer

I recommend to sleep on your stomach as long as possible. You'll get really tired sleeping on your sides.

Answer

I still am. Almost 9 weeks. No discomfort yet :)

Answer

I mostly sleep on my stomach. I will until it's no longer comfortable. I did the same thing with my first.

Answer

9 weeks with #3 and i always sleep on my belly until it gets uncomfortable. usually around the time i start showing.

Answer

With my first I was advised I can still sleep on my stomach until it becomes uncomfortable, so that’s what I’m doing this time. Trying to enjoy all the stomach sleep I can get because I sure missed it last time.
