How am I to control that one

Answer

I wake up on my back all the time. I fall asleep on my sides but it never fails that eventually I make my way to my back.

Answer

I sleep on my back but sort of tilted with a pillow slightly under me on one side. I also sleep on my side hugging one pillow and with another between my knees. I’m just going for whatever position is comfortable enough for me to actually get some sleep. I’m 21 weeks along. 🤷🏽‍♀️😴

Answer

There have been some studies showing a correlation between sleeping on your back during pregnancy and a higher risk of stillborns, the research is not wide spread yet but they are putting more into it (this info is from my prenatal yoga teacher/doula) but I was 100% a back sleeper before I got pregnant but now every time I wake up on my back I can’t stop thinking about that risk and move to either side.  She said she used to tell people to sleep however they were most comfortable but since these studies have started coming out, she no longer feels comfortable with it

Answer

Every once in a while I wake up on my back but I am always in so much pain for some reason. I have started putting a pillow behind my back just to keep me from going on my back. I’ve heard it lowers blood flow or oxygen to the baby? One of those things lol

Answer

I sleep with a couple pillows to keep my head/chest elevated. It’s mostly to avoid heartburn but it also allows me to lay on my back a little safer and comfier.

Answer

I wake up on my back but usually its because I start having a tingling/ numbing feeling in my body and I think thats my bodys way of saying okay you need to move now lol ive had it with all my pregnancies and everything has been fine.

Answer

It stops the circulation to the baby and can cause death. It’s really not a good idea or even worth the risk. I also find it makes me feel faint... 
If you go to sleep on your left side you won’t get indigestion as bad and if you put a pillow between your knees and bend them both it feels really good for relief on your hips and your lady area lol

Answer

I fall asleep on my sides but  wake up on my back alot, i dare say as pregnancy progresses our bodies will know what to do, sleeping on back will become uncomfortable as the uterus gets bigger and puts pressure on everything, if youre worried try put a pillow under the right  side of your back so it puts your body on a slight angle but you still get to lay on your back without your uterus putting too much pressure on main arteries
