My friend is a midwife and she went off her nut when she found out I had been sleeping on my back. Apparently this is the most common cause for still bring babies. As said above the babies weight can crush the blood flow to itself.  I kept waking up on my back so  I bought a maternity pillow. Best thing I ever did. They are longer than your body and support you al the way along your side, and help support your belly.

They say not to coz the weight of ur uterus can put pressure on the artery that carry's blood back to heart causing dizzyness etc.. But I think ur body will let u know. Im 31+6 and still sleep on my back alot without a problem!
