Sleep on back!!

20 weeks here and I find it difficult too, I’ve bought a pregnancy pillow and so far it’s helped quite a bit although it does take up quite a bit of room in bed haha! Try and pop a pillow in between your knees whilst lying on your side - weirdly helps!

I already sleep with a pillow between my legs and spooning another (wouldn't have room for a pregnancy pillow or father of the baby would be sleeping on the floor 😂) but yet I still keep waking up on my back 😭

Haha! Try not to worry too much as NHS advise is if you do wake up on your back just turn back to your side and try and go to sleep like that. Almost halfway there - we’ve got this!

They say not to sleep on your back later on in the pregnancy. If u wake up on your back it’s fine just not to fall asleep that way. I think we are ok at this stage at the moment. It’s very hard not to but you get use to it, I’m on my second pregnancy and haven’t slept on my back since the first 😂

It’s from 28 weeks you need to worry about that but if you do wake on your back, just roll back over. It’s fine. Just don’t go to sleep on your back x

I think you can sleep on your back if you prop yourself up a bit so you're not flat

I am the same I have sore hips and sleeping on the side is keeping me up, I only stand a chance of sleeping on my back but worried too :(

i also get sore hips and laying on them hurts so much so I've been almost sleeping on my front but with a pillow to slightly prop me up so Im more diagonal than flat if that makes sense ? ☺️

@Ellie this is my partner 🤣 he called it the great wall of china and hates it as it's huge and practically leaves him with no room

I am definitely in the same boat as you! But i would just avoid sleeping on your back and not risk it. I just keep turning side to side can be annoying and disruptive to my sleep

yes it makes sense I will try this tonight 😂 wish me luck! Thanks x
