Sleeping on your stomach?

Question

Ok I read a while ago that women were still sleeping on their stomachs throughout their 1st trimester just until it was no longer comfortable and that it isn’t harmful to the baby? I haven’t been able to ask my doctor yet and have been sleeping in small increments on my stomach still at almost 9 weeks. Does anyone know if this is harmful to the baby? After 2 miscarriages I’m paranoid

Answer

Exactly what you said. As long as it’s comfortable. I did it with my daughter until I couldn’t anymore. I’m still doing it with this baby too. It won’t hurt baby. The baby is super cushioned and protected in there!

Answer

My doctor has always told me if you’re comfortable the most important thing is that you’re getting your sleep. She said that if it’s bad for the baby it wouldn’t be comfortable and same thing for exercise

Answer

I emailed my doctors office and they said that it’s completely fine to sleep on your stomach as long as it is comfortable. Such a relief since I’m a tummy sleeper! ☺️

Answer

You can sleep however you want until you’re not comfy doing so. I think with my first pregnancy I went to lay on my belly to get something out from under a bed when I was 27 weeks and thought “ouch this is not comfortable”.

Answer

I slept on my stomach my last pregnancy until my bump got too big lol. It’s safe.
