I already noticed how uncomfortable I am laying flat on my back...I just stick to my sides.

Answer

I read that sleeping on your bad cuts of the blood flow to the baby and as you get further along your organs are pushed up a lot so shortness of breath is common.
I've also been told to sleep on my left side to help normal blood flow

Answer

Good luck because as you get further pregnant you're only supposed to sleep on your left side. As your uterus gets bigger if you lie on your back, it cuts off the circulation to your legs ( probably not this early, though) you obviously can't lay on your stomach, and they recommend the right side over the left I think because blood flows easier? I can't remember. I'm a right side sleeper normally, but yeah a few more months and that's done too lol

Answer

I can only sleep on my back. I would ask your doctor. That's not something I've ever heard or read, but everyone is different. When I sleep on my left side I get terribly painful flatulance and when I sleep in my right side I get heartburn.
