    hi all!

    My OB told me if i didn't get dizzy when laying on my back, that i was more than welcome to sleep that way if i liked! I'm normally a side sleeper, so it doesn't bother me much... i do lay on my back occasionally when my hips get sore..!

    hope this helps...

    hmmmm Haroula, my Ob told me it's not good to sleep on back but left side is safest....it's funny how they all tell you different things sometimes isn't it!

    Hi, just an idea if you want to stop yourself rolling onto your back in your sleep - wear a big old t-shirt to bed and put a tennis ball on the inside back of your t-shirt, then hold it in place by tying the fabric around the ball with a rubber bad or hair tie on the outside. Hope this makes sense! I did it to stop myself sleeping on my stomach when I had back troubles - it alway woke me up if I rolled over in my sleep!

    Trouble is finding a T-shirt big enough when you are already popping out of all you have!
