Sleep positions

Amaya • 💙Blessed with 4 boys! One angel baby girl who we lost at 15 weeks pregnant 👼
I'm so uncomfortable when I sleep because I'm really wanting to sleep on my back but I know Its not good while pregnant. 
What's your favorite sleep position now that you are pregnant? 
And has anyone woken up accidentally sleeping on their tummy?

I always fall asleep on my side, but I'll wake up on my back or tummy. I was totally freaked out about this so I asked my OB and he said it was okay until 28 weeks. Hope that helps!

Just talked to my ob yesterday about sleeping and she said if I want to sleep on my back, I can just elevate my head and back on pillows and sleep on an incline. That way the uterus isn't pressing on the major artery.

My belly sometimes and my left side with a pillow between my legs

I'm a back sleeper and I've been training myself to sleep on my sides. it's difficult and my hips hurt sometimes, despite snuggling up to my snoogle and propping up pillows. it's funny, you don't think of these little things before pregnancy, but it's definitely worth it!!

I'm 18+3 and I still sleep on my belly. It's the only way I can fall asleep. :/Now that my belly is getting a little bigger I do have to twist my hips a little and stretch a leg out so I'm not lying directly on top of the baby. Idk what I'll do when I can't even do that cuz it's so hard for me to sleep any other way.

I sleep mostly on my side because that's what's comfortable for me. I do occasionally lay on my back but slightly propped up so I'm not flat on my back. I did buy an extra body pillow so now I have a pillow on both sides. It's helped me a lot.

I am 16+2 & am most comfortable on my stomach. I slide one knee up to belly level though to keep from laying flat on it. A body pillow helps.
