I'm told whatever is comfy

Is fine.. I can't lay on my back anymore as of a week or so ago.. can't breathe anymore lol I hate it

It's not good once the baby starts to get bigger

I too wasn't comfortable sleeping on my sides so I just slept on my back until 20 weeks or so which was when it became uncomfortable to sleep on my back so I then started sleeping on my sides which was comfortable by then ha

That doesn’t bother you until like 3rd trimester well in my experience that’s when babies really start gaining and their weight compresses your vena cava and it can make you feel quite light headed and uncomfortable so for now sleep how you feel comfortable whether it’s back sides or in your tummy until you feel uncomfortable because your baby is perfectly protected in there

@lovingmommy2017, thank you. I guess I’ll just have to lay on my side for the baby’s sake. (:

Definitely what she said.

I’ve always slept on my back but once you get to second/third trimester it becomes uncomfortable to sleep on your back and the most comfortable becomes on your side (or for me sometimes sitting on a reclining chair due to heartburn!)

My doctor told me that too but I didn't really worrie about it til the second trimester because by then your bigger and the baby has grown so it puts more pressure on your blood vessels.

When you lie belly-up, the weight of your uterus can compress a major blood vessel, called the vena cava, disrupting blood flow to your baby and leaving you nauseated, dizzy, and short of breath. The best way to sleep during the second half of pregnancy is on your side.
