Everyone keeps telling me left side is best but i just cant, my kamar starts paining and i keep rolling to my back in sleep. 28 weeks now and feeling so restless at night. Is it really a problem if i dont manage left side?
Medically, left side sleeping improves circulation to the fetus. But honestly, forcing yourself into one position causes sleep deprivation. Ask your doctor for comfortable positions.
I was so scared of hurting the baby that I forced myself to sleep only on the left. It was hard, but placing a pillow behind my back really helped support the posture gently.
You don't need to buy those expensive maternity pillows! Just use regular extra pillows between your knees to help you stay on your left side comfortably.
I'm planning my pregnancy now and I already sleep on my stomach! I wonder how difficult it will be to switch to the left side. These tips are so helpful.
My mother-in-law used to tell me to sleep only on my left, but doctor said sleeping comfortably is more important in early months. Just try your best with pillows.
