I'm in my first trimester, and I'm finding it really hard to get comfortable and sleep well. My doctor said to be careful about sleeping positions. What are some good ways to sleep in the first three months of pregnancy? Any tips would be great.
After my IVF transfer, I was so delicate about everything, including sleep. My doctor assured me that sleeping on my back or sides is perfectly safe in these early weeks.
Don't stress too much about sleeping positions right now, dear. Just try to get enough rest, use a soft pillow under your head, and sleep whenever you feel tired.
I felt so anxious in my first trimester that I only slept on my left side, even though my back would ache. Later I realized any comfortable position is fine in the start.
In the first trimester, you can actually sleep in any position you find comfortable since the baby is very small. Sleeping on your left side is the best habit to build early on.
