I heard it’s bad to sleep on your back while prego is that true?

Not sure..but I've heard it so much I just don't risk it. Something about circulation or babies oxygen

@tholliswilliams, oh wow ok didn’t know that. Good to know. I use to never want to sleep on my back but for some reason I want to now. Won’t risk it tho

I heard it's supposed to be bad for you. I don't know, i do it until it's not comfortable. I was on my tummy until recently. It didn't hurt..w my girls I couldn't instantly

@luceromommy, when I lay on my sides I can’t ever fall asleep. So I lay on my tummy til it hurts then switch to my back til I get a weird cramp in my side then roll over again. I think that’s why I never get enough sleep n always waking up in the middle of the night

@kri2182999, try using pillows. Or get a maternity pillow.

@luceromommy, my mom got me a body pillow but I feel like it doesn’t work. And I’m a softy and have 3 dogs who hog my bed n lay all over next to me.

@kri2182999, then I have no idea. Try not to be on your tummy until it hurts tho. Once it starts hurting stop laying on baby. I would try back and sides

@luceromommy, ok. I’ll see what helps. Do u know if sleeping meds r bad to take while prego

@kri2182999, I know you. Can have your dr give you some :)

I usually walk for a bit before bed if I'm not sleep

*sleepy

@luceromommy, perfect thanks

@kri2182999, of course :) hope it gets earlier for you. I can never sleep when pregnant

You toss and turn through out the night that it doesnt matter. I start off sleeping on my back but I end up tossing and turning in the middle of the night. You just can't sleep on your back all night long.

@tholliswilliams @kri2182999 I slept on my back my entire pregnancy. Doc told me that my body would tell me when a position was uncomfortable.

@juliaschade41 shoot Idk I can't do it regardless my back has killed me since basketball years

@tholliswilliams lol girl you just falling apart everywhere lmao

@juliaschade41 old lady in a 20 year old body 😂😂 hard out here for a pimp 🤣

@tholliswilliams omg just stooopppp😭😭😂😂

My doctor said sleep however it makes you comfortable. I sleep with a boppy between my legs and use a arm of the boppy to prop my back. I need to sleep on my back or I don’t sleep but I still prop it to the side
