How bad is sleeping on your back?

Question

I don’t even realize I am on my back until I wake up.

Answer

My response will always be the same if something is wrong ie too much pressure, etc your body will let you know and you can move out of that position. I too consistently wake up on my back. If you’re that concerned though what i do/did occasionally is place a pillow behind your back when you go to sleep. That way if you do roll towards your back you’re not fully on your back.

Answer

I keep going to bed on my side and then waking up on my back too. I have a pregnancy pillow so I’m not fully on my back when I wake but as I’m uber anxious, I’m going to build myself a pillow fort - oh the romance!

Answer

I keep sleeping on my back all the time

Answer

I wake up out of breathe or from coughing. So to me it symbolises lack of oxygen, which means baby could be getting less oxygen. I would be more aware of it. Especially in third trimester when you uterus is bigger. In women who have stillborns there’s like a 30% correlation with them not sleeping on their left side the night before 😢

Answer

I slept on my back a little bit last night, and my legs felt like they were going numb and I kinda felt light headed..so I think I'll take only sleeping on your side more seriously. 😂
