My husband and I are trying to conceive, and I usually sleep on my stomach. I was just wondering if this sleeping position can affect my chances of getting pregnant.
Not at all, dear. The way you sleep has absolutely no impact on the sperm reaching the egg, as it happens deep inside the uterus. Please don't stress over such minor things, stay relaxed and positive.
No, scientifically there is absolutely no link between sleeping positions and your conception rate. The cervix protects the sperm path perfectly. Keep your stress low and talk to your doctor if you have other concerns.
My mother-in-law used to say sleeping on the stomach is not good, but my doctor laughed and said it doesn't affect conceiving at all. Sleep however you are comfortable right now. Once you conceive, then you can change your position.
Beta, sleeping on your stomach doesn't stop you from conceiving. But once you do get pregnant, you must sleep on your left side as it's better for the baby. Drink warm milk before bed for good sleep.
It doesn't affect your chances of conceiving at all. However, if you are finding it hard to conceive, it's better to consult your gynac for proper fertility tests rather than worrying about sleeping positions.
I used to sleep on my stomach all the time and was so worried it would affect our chances! But we conceived anyway. Did anyone else feel guilty about their sleeping positions when trying?
