Laying/Sleeping on your back
When are you NOT supposed to do this? I'm almost 17 weeks...I usually sleep on my side anyway, but sometimes I wake up on my back..Is it bad for the baby at this point? I've been trying to use the body pillow to support me on my side more.

Re: Laying/Sleeping on your back
They say after 28 weeks it poses a potential risk. Its also ok if you wake on your back- just flip over to your side. You will know if there is an issue being on your back- you wiil get dizzy and lightheaded and short of breath

I lay on my back a lot and my dr said the same thing. She also said it will start getting uncomfortable to lay on my back around that time so I'll know...

I am 39w and I still sleep on my back - I was never told not to and I am only comfy in that position

Re: Laying/Sleeping on your back
"Your pregnancy week by week" said to stop at 17 weeks!
I am a back sleeper hardcore ever since we got our tempurpedic, so whether it's now or later, I'm going to start getting out of the habit now!
