My saas keeps telling me to sleep on the floor on a thin mattress, she says it's better for the back and for delivery. I'm in my 6th month and honestly my kamar already pains. Is this actually good ya just an old belief? Pls share.
Oh, those sleepless nights! My boy is 2 now, but I still remember trying to sleep on a yoga mat on the floor because nothing else worked. Don't worry at all, as long as you are comfortable and can get up safely, it's absolutely fine.
I get why you are asking this, finding a comfortable spot can make you so anxious during these months. It is perfectly fine to sleep on the floor if you use a comfortable mat or mattress. Just avoid sleeping directly on the cold, hard floor to keep your muscles relaxed.
I am in my 5th month now and sometimes I get this sudden urge to sleep on the cool floor tiles because of the heat. But I am so scared it might affect the baby or my back. Do you guys also feel like doing this, or is it just me?
Actually, my baby tracker app says sleeping on your side is best, especially the left side. If you want to sleep on the floor, just use a thick mattress or a yoga mat. Directly sleeping on hard tiles can cause bad back pain, so keep tracking what feels comfy!
Same here, the bed feels so warm and uncomfortable these days! But wait, do you use a pregnancy pillow when sleeping on the floor? I was thinking of trying that tonight to see if my back feels any better.
I totally understand how tiring it is to find a cozy sleeping position when your body is changing so much. If resting on the floor with a soft mat gives your body some peace, go for it dear. Take care of yourself, you are doing great.
Honestly, during my last month, my bed felt too soft and was making my back hurt like crazy. I put a thin mattress on the floor and slept there, which actually helped me get up much easier. Just make sure u have someone nearby to help you stand up.
