I usually sleep on my stomach and now im scared its not okay even though im only 8 weeks. Not getting proper sleep because im confused about positions. How did u all manage early on?
First trimester I felt so sleepy all the time honestly! I just slept whenever I could. In early weeks any position is fine, the bump isnt there yet so u can still sleep comfy.
My app suggested starting left side sleeping early as a habit and using a pillow for support. Also fixed sleep timing helped me. In first tri the body just wants rest, so dont fight the naps.
My nausea was worst at night so I kept the head slightly raised and a biscuit by the bed. Eating something small before bed actually helped me sleep. First tri tiredness is real, rest as much as u can.
In first tri u can pretty much sleep how u like, the side rules matter more later. Start getting used to the left side though, it helps down the line. A pillow between knees feels nice yaar.
Dont stress about positions yet beta, it's still early. Keep your room cool, avoid heavy food right before bed, and rest whenever your body asks. The proper side sleeping comes in later months.
