Sleeping position when pregnant

Haha I have to nap in the day my oldest only sleeps 30-45 mins at a time at night and has to be supervised most of it, if I didn't I would die of sleep deprivation lol xx

A nap?? What on earth is that lol, been so long since I had a nap xx

I've just had a nap and woke up on my stomach I looked like a tipped over turtle had to get hubby to help me was so funny ? I've never slept on my stomach ? I've just order a new pillow hopefully that keeps me in place and comfy x

I sleep on my tummy with a pillow under my hips.. I try so hard to sleep on my left but can't stand facing my oh ? and get so uncomfy.. sleep is becoming a problem now ?

I always sleep on my sides. Mainly left. Can't stay in the one position all night as it's too painful. I could not lay on my back now. It would be too painful as it's so heavy now I guess. U just get to a point where it's just not right. X

Actually laying on your back and right side is not advisable, they advise left side only as laying on your right and back can stop blood flow to the placenta . If you lay on the right your uterus crushes your vena carva and other organs which provides blood to the placenta. It's all over the nhs Web site as laying on your back and right can cause still birth in some cases so I really would not risk it Fiona x not even advisable with spd.

I can't get comfy whatever side I sleep on. I usually wake up on my back

Thank you ladies going to try not stress over it so much I couldn't sleep in my stomach if I tried I'm huge haha x

I switch from side to side but prefer my right, I've always slept on my right but have to swap as the top of my legs go dead ? some nights both sides end up dead so have to lie on my back for a bit x

I slept on my stomach, wouldnt worry too much hun however you feel comfortable xx

I'm the same, it's so hard to stay in one position. I definitely would though if I could cause it's such a hassle moving around ? I always get heart burn on my right side, it's uncomfortable on my back and my hips go dead on my left side. So I just kind of balance it all out by wriggling around all the time!!

I have a 6ft pillow and a wedge and the wedge ends up under my hubbys arse ? which he doesn't appreciate at all haha my pillow always seems to be where I need it so I throw it all over, I also sleep with one in between my knees I'm surprised there is room for him in the bed x

Hav u tried a pillow between ur knees/ legs really helps xx

I wake up on my back and it's sooooo uncomfy. My right side is my most comfy. But at 34 weeks I'm constantly tossing and turning throughout the night lugging my 6ft pillow with me ?Try not too worry too much about position go for comfort honey :) xx

I have to sleep on my left due to issues with blood flow in my right leg but jesus its so hard lol. Even with a pregnancy pillow behind me I still end up wrapped around in the wrong position! x

Aww fab thank you I was really starting to worry ? I'm currently laid on my right side and I'm somewhat comfortable for now x

I was told that it was fine to sleep in whatever position you find comfortable, even on your tummy ? by the physio

She said that it only affects a small percentage of women which is why they suggest sleeping on your left but if there was an issue with blood flow you would know as your breathing would struggle X
