Hey girls, so my first kid was right up front during my entire pregnancy. I could find his heartbeat instantly every time I used my doppler, and I was pretty comfortable thru my whole pregnancy.. even sleeping was ok, I avoided sleeping on my back only because I knew I was suppose to, but any time I woke up on my back I wasn't in any type of pain. But this time around my baby is way towards the back of my uterous, it's very hard to find the heartbeat and when I do it disappears after a few seconds. I am almost 14 weeks along now, so not very far, so I have been sleeping on my back still like I usually do, but the last couple nights when I wake up to go pee and I've been on my back for a few hours, my lower back KILLS me like someone kicked it as hard as they could! I have to hunch when I walk and if I cough or sneeze it hurts it even more. So when I went back to sleep again in layed on my side, and when I woke up in the morning the pain was much better. It's just strange to me to think it could be the weight of the baby when I'm still so early along.. then again, the baby is way more in the back than my first was. Do u girls think this pain was definitely from the baby and cause I was on my back? Also, are there any symptoms to the mother if she does end up on her back thru the night? I just have felt extra weak and tired all day it's ridiculous like I can't stay awake! I was curious if that coulda been a result if me laying on my back half the night. But maybe that just effects baby... it's hard cause sometimes u just wake up on your back and worry about how long u were sleeping that way! I know those big body pillows help train your body not to turn at all during sleep. I should use mine again, gives me neck pain when I do, but I should probably stop sleeping on my back now even if generally they don't say u need to till later..
