Sleeping on back

Cassie
Everywhere I read it says sleeping on your back during the second and third trimester is bad for the blood flow to the placenta. I always wake up and have been sleeping on my back, no matter how hard I try to sleep on my sides. Is this really harmful to baby or is that a myth?
