Is it safe?

BritaMariea

I'm only 20w and lately I've noticed that I've been sleeping on my stomach rather than my side. More like 75-80% of my stomach, if that makes any sense. I'm not completely on my side and I'm not completely on my stomach either and feel no discomfort whatsoever when I wake. It has actually helped with my back and leg/hip pain I've been having these pass few weeks. Should I be concerned at all for my baby? Or am I still in the "safe zone" when it comes to lying on one's stomach?

It's fine. It becomes uncomfortable long before it becomes unsafe.

It is safe to sleep however you are comfortable.

You're in the safe zone. You'll know when it's time to switch it up. I'm still sleeping on my back at 21w and figure I'll have another 4 more before I break out the body pillow.

If you're comfortable then you're safe! That's what my OB says anyways

It's fine your body will tell you. Im 29 weeks and still sleep half belly/side at night. Feels best

I love the half side sleep, I use a maternity pillow to stop me from being all on my stomach.
