When do I stop sleeping on my stomach when pregnant?

Hi. I am 12 weeks and 2 days pregnant and I have been sleeping on my stomach a lot. Just wondering when should I stop sleeping on my stomach? I have heard that I should have stopped it a few weeks ago. Is this true? Have I heard the baby by sleeping on my stomach?

I chuckled a little bit when I read this post. You'll know when it it's time to stop sleeping on your stomach. When it starts to get uncomfortable you can try a modified side/stomach position where you put a pillow under one leg and arm. So most of your weight is on your side.

Good luck.

Stop when you feel uncomfortable. It won't hurt baby at this stage.
