Is it bad to lay on my back ?

Question

I’m currently 26 weeks and I find that laying on my back makes me feel more comfortable at times, is it bad ?

Answer

It’s fine for short times but not good for you or baby for long periods of time.

Answer

It is recommended to not lay on your back for long periods of time as it could cut off blood flow to you and baby.

Answer

No it’s fine. Dr told me I don’t need to avoid any positions. Just be in whatever is comfortable. I always slept on my back

Answer

They say not long periods of time because of the main artery. However before my third pregnancy I had never been advised not to.. it was actually a big thing to hear about it when I got pregnant with my third. But prior I never knew that and laid on my back through out both of my past two pregnancies. However with this pregnancy if I lay on my back to long I can’t breath so that makes me turn.

Answer

I’m 36 weeks with a healthy baby boy, I’ve been sleeping on my back throughout my pregnancy. 😋 I of course do end up sleeping on my sides though when I feel uncomfortable!

Answer

It’s fine to lay however is comfortable. Your body will adjust positions when it’s no longer comfortable.

Answer

it’s dangerous for you and the baby bc it lays on a major artery that blocks blood flow to you and baby and can cause a stillborn and passing out for you. please dont
