Sleep

Im 8 weeks and haven't got to see my doc yet. Is it safe to sleep on my stomach? Or my back or do I have to sleep on my side? What's the best way to sleep

However you want. When you get further along you shouldn't sleep on your back due to compression issues, but right now that doesn't matter. I slept on my stomach till 35 weeks (I didn't get large)
