Thanks Bbjourney and heartbeats! Will get my fillet o'fish later, hee hee...
Hi hi Joyfully! *wave wave*
Have a stress-free 2ww.
heartbeats, Tromso is right. It's best to lie on your left side, not on your back. In fact, even during delivery (while waiting for full dilation), the nurse reminded me to lie on my side when I turned to lie on my back.
I couldn't get used to it initially in my first preg cos I was used to sleeping either on my right or on my back, had to consciously make the effort to sleep on my left. It will feel natural after some time.
Give urself a bit of time to become comfortable with the idea of sleeping on your left, and share your concerns with your doc abt ur sleeping position affecting babies okay? Let the doc reassure you.
If you read the explanation below on why sleeping on your left is crucial, then maybe you'll feel more assured that it's more beneficial than harmful to your babies.
Taken from an article online:
Here’s why your pregnancy sleeping position matters: As your abdomen grows throughout pregnancy, the additional weight needs somewhere to go when you’re lying down. Early on in your pregnancy it might not make much of a difference – and you’re often so tired you don’t even pay attention to your sleeping position anyway. But as your body grows throughout your pregnancy, back-sleeping causes the full weight of your uterus to press on your spine, intestines, and major blood vessels. This additional pressure could cause digestive problems, hemorrhoids, shortness of breath, and lack of blood flow to the baby. That’s why lying on your back may cause you to grow dizzy and faint or experience lower back pain.
Experts advise sleeping on your side, specifically your left side, to increase the blood flow to the placenta and your baby. If you’ve been accustomed to sleeping on your back or on your stomach, it’s good to start training yourself early in your pregnancy to get used to side-sleeping. Before you know it, you’ll be at a point when there’s no other comfortable position except on your side.
That’s not to say, however, that side-sleeping has to be an uncomfortable experience. Most women who have been through a pregnancy will tell you that the key is pillows, pillows, pillows. You can start with a slim pillow between your legs to keep your knees slightly apart and your hips aligned. Many moms also feel more comfortable when they have a slim pillow tucked underneath their abdomen to give it some support. Additionally, you may need a pillow tucked in behind your back to give you extra support from behind. If you’re used to back-sleeping, you can lean back into your back-pillow and create a compromise position between side-sleeping and back-sleeping.
God blesses u with the best combi!
