Sleeping on your left side already?

Are you guys sleeping on your left side yet? I was told by a co-worker that it is not too early to start sleeping on your left side. I had heard about sleeping on the left side in the later months of pregnancy so I decided to look it up. I found the reasons why interesting. This is what the American pregnancy Association website says:

Sleeping During pregnancy

The best sleep position during pregnancy is “SOS” (sleep on side). Even better is to sleep on your left side. Sleeping on your left side will increase the amount of blood and nutrients that reach the placenta and your baby.

Keep your legs and knees bent, and put a pillow between your legs.

If you find that you are having problems with back pain, use the “SOS” position, and try placing a pillow under your abdomen as well.

If you are experiencing heartburn during the night, you may want to try propping your upper body with pillows.

In late pregnancy you may experience shortness of breath. Try lying on your side or propped up with pillows.
