sleepin right?

[bbfuzz711]

Is anyone else having issues sleeping? I fall asleep like I'm suppose it on my sides but it never fails I wake up on my back. I feel the weight of the baby an what not pushing down I know it isn't good for the baby to sleep on ur back I tried pillows I just move around them any other suggestions?

I know the feeling but before I fond out we were pregnant I had an insomnia I couldn't sleep at all so when we found out we were pregnant I new thing needed to change I tried pm tabs nothing would help the doctor said if I start into old habits and within 10min I can't get to sleep to get out of bed and now I've noticed I sleep a lil better I trained my body that bed means sleep but is nice warm bath does help good luck

I have slept in my recliner once in a while with all four of my pregnancies.  With the first 3 it was because of extreme and constant heartburn but this one I am having the issue of ending up on my back.  I think it helps because you are propped up a bit, technically laying on your back but without the pins and needles to wake u up.  Also, if I am having a restless night, it allows my husband the sleep he needs for his job.  Good luck everyone :)

I tried the body pillow but my husband hates it lol he says its all up in his face its bad enough I sleep walk and talk in my sleep I know he need good rest to most nights I'm just up and down I can't get comfortable so I just lay there :-(

I usually try to fall asleep sleeping on my side, and if I wake up on my back I just roll myself back to my side and go back to sleep.  I bought one of those really long body pillows for $8 at walmart. It helps because I can cuddle up to it and stick the lower end between my knees so lying on your side is more comfortable.

Thank you I'm 16w and 3d this is my tenth pregnancy but I have never made it this far so I'm super worried about all the little things but on the plus side I did for sure feel the baby move today no doubt in my mind made me feel like I was doing something right

Your baby is surrounded by a big sack of water xxxx baby will be fine this is my third pregnancy and all have been fine xxxx I think its mothers instinct that wont allow you to hurt you baby xxxx how far along are you xxxx im nearly 17 weeks xxxx congratulations on bump by the way lol xxxx

Thank u libbylou83 its a relief knowing I'm not the only one who can't sleep on my side and very reassuring it won't hurt the baby.

I honestly wouldn't worry yourself xxxx I still sleep on my front even when I fall asleep on my side xxxx you wont hurt the baby xxxx you might just find that in a few more months you get pins and needles when you wake up lol xxxx  please just enjoy your sleep whilst you can xxxx
