Side sleeping? When?

Question

When should I start sleeping on my side. I'm 9wks 5 days. I'm trying to train myself l. But it's difficult. I've been a stomach and back sleeper forever! Any knowledge or experiences with this would be appreciated 😊

Answer

My doctor said sleeping on the left side helps blood flow and really recommended trying to sleep on that side.

Answer

I'm am struggling to sleep right now ! 6 w and 1 day and I'm a stomach and back sleeper also , I've been sleeping with a pillow between my legs on my side but it's so uncomfortable 😂

Answer

I've tried to start the habit myself. There will be a couple of times I'll wake up and find myself on my stomach or back and immediately roll over to my side. I believe early in the pregnancy it is okay to sleep on your stomach, but I'm definitely very conscience of sleep positions now.

Answer

My midwife said to sleep however you are comfortable.  No need to worry.  If uncomfortable, you'll switch on your own.
