Worried I'm rolling over to hard

Hello there. I'm a very bad person for sleeping I roll around a lot and not softly either. I'm worried that I'm rolling over to hard at night and its could be hurting my baby or stopping her development. Not sure what to do or if it could potentially hurt her. She due in 12 weeks

Good topic! I sometimes wake up on my stomach and get very scared because it hurts but idk if it hurts from me maybe laying to hard on my tummy or from my bladder being really full and me having to use the bathroom asap

I toss all over at 32 weeks and I always have been a stomach sleeper!!! Sleeping on my sides is the only way I can sleep and I kinds barricade myself with pillows!

The baby will be perfectly fine. She has enough fluid and cushion to protect her in your stomach. You should not worry about injuring her just by rolling over. No issues there!

I roll over a lot too
I can't get proper sleeping position
Then I find one and then again in 5mins I get uncomfortable in that position
The baby kicks me if I am slightly on my stomach and squishing it as though its telling me mommy move over I'm here

We're in the same boat. One morning last week I was afraid that I had squished I poor baby because I was slightly on my stomach. I've tried not being a wild sleeper since the tummy has grown but it's hard. Now, I keep a pillow, as I lie on my side, slightly under my boob or "gut", & behind my back for a sturdy but comfortable sleep.
