How did you sleep before pregnant?

How are you sleeping now? (side, pillows, etc.)

I slept on my tummy and OH SO GOOD

Now I sleep on my side with a pillow between my legs, one stuffed under my belly and one under my head. Now I barely know what sleep is

I was a big time tummy sleeper before. Now I am happy if I can find a position too sleep. Usually on my side and if I can a pillow between my legs.

I slept on my stomach before...Now I sleep however I can get comfortable. That usually includes tons of pillows wedged everywhere, and even then, I really don't sleep well....who needs sleep? It's overrated...lol

Before I slept on my stomach.

Now I sleep on my side with a pillow under my head and one up under my tummy/chest like an L shape.

Back. Oh, how I long to sleep on my back again....


I was sleeping on my side(s) with a pillow in between my legs but this past week or so my hips have been hurting so badly that, well, the recliner is about the only place I get any real sleep. I start out in bed and then am usually in the recliner by 3.

I was a tummy sleeper.

Now I sleep on my side with a pillow at my head, wedged under my back, and in between my legs. Lately, though, I've been doing ok with just side sleeping with pillow under my head. I don't know why.

Before: I used to sleep on my stomach or half stomach/half side with my leg bent up at my side

Now: I sleep on my sides. I try to sleep on my left, but I alternate sides throughout the night when my hips start hurting

Before on my left side. Now I prefer my right side or my back (I try not to sleep on my back though). At the beginning of this pregnancy I preferred my stomach.

Before: side. My first I used to sleep on my stomach but after having him, I haven't been able to do so comfortably.

Now: Still side. i hope to get back to my back sleeping after the baby.

Before: tummy
Now: flip side to side with a bed pillow to support my legs. It's all very awkward.

I miss sleeping on my back too! This whole side thing stinks, especially now that it is making my hips hurt/numb up in the middle of the night

Before: tummy or back - I'm a toss n turner.

Now: sometimes side, sometimes part tummy with my
leg way up. Of course, baby doesn't seem to like that position so I usually have to move quickly. Occasionally I'll wake up on my back - guess I really miss it.
