Can I sleep on my back? (26 weeks pregnant)

Question

I'm a back sleeper! Someone told me if I  slept propped up it would be ok..but I keep seeing things about only sleeping on side🤰🤷‍♀️

Answer

i am 35 weeks and wake up on my back a lot. Yes, I fall asleep on my side.

Answer

It's only really an issue in the mid to late part of the third trimester. But I know people who slept on their back throughout their whole pregnancy and everything was fine 🤷🏽‍♀️

Answer

You’ll know when to change positions. Your body will tell you wayy before itll affect baby.

Answer

It’s fine but if you have a weird feeling or feel like you can’t breathe change positions.

Answer

I’m 27 weeks tomorrow and I’m still perfectly comfortable on my back. I was told if you’re comfortable, you’re probably not big enough to be cutting off blood flow, which is the risk.

Answer

Yes. Your body will move you if needed while youre sleeping
