They say laying on the right side isn't overly well for the baby as well lol, also to do with the blood flow. Not many choices :(Quote:

Please don't worry about sleeping on your back, i always woke up on my back with ds3 and was sooo worried i asked my midwife - its more later pregnancy as it can restrict the flow of the placenta BUT you will pass out long before your baby notices any difference as it will restrict the major blood supply to your lower body. You'd feel light headed and really rough, so much so that you would move - i naturally started sleeping on side without even thinking about it, its too uncomfortable by then. Your body is an amazing thing and it will protect your baby so please don't worry x
Yeah I am paranoid this time. But really I hate sleeping on my left and rarely wake up on my left lol
Oh it will go great! So hoping you hear pink!!!!Quote:

I sleep on my right all the time other than through the middle bit of the night where invariably I will have normally the littlest one sleeping on my arm so then I'm on my back. Have read mrs p post so not too worried yet - was starting to panic before saw that!! X
Dreaming hope your dreams come true! Praying you hear pink. Don't worry everything will go just fine.Quote:
