hmm thats really interesting LoriRae, maybe i should limit my back time after all.

I find that if I sleep on my sides too much my hips get sore! I think its just the muscles and ligaments around the hips just loosening up but its not as comfy as lying on my back. I usually wedge a pillow behind my back so that if I lie on my back its on more of an angle so to speak.

Hi all,

Yup another back sleeper here lol!I often wake up during the night on my back and bubby kicking the bageezus outa me lol he hates it when im on my back.

Amyalexandra - I find the same thing with the hips. Some mornings I cant walk until i have sat in the shower to losen them up. they go sorta numb like a dead leg and i get shooting pains up through them. I have one of those sausage pillowsand i usually lie with my belly ontop of it and legs wrapped around it to make it more inviting to sleep on my side but it seems to be more comfy on my back some nights sprawled over all the pillows lol

LorieRay - Thats very interesting isnt it!! just amazing on where you lie makes a difference.

I'm an occasional back sleeper. Luckily for me i've always slept on my sides,in particular on my left side. I'm not finding being on my back too uncomfortable as yet,i've only just reached 14 weeks. I'm sure my body (or baby) will let me know when it becomes uncomfortable.
