Will my baby be okay if I slept on my stomach at 8 weeks?

15w+3 and still sleeping on my stomach ✌️I had an ultrasound yesterday and baby is perfect, so definitely not something to fret about. I’m all over the bed these days because everything hurts my back after a while lol Back, side, stomach, whatever feels best for the moment.
