Sleeping on your back

Has anyone heard that you can't do this? My dr has not said anything to me, but I read about it, in my pregnancy book.  I normally sleep on my side, but sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and realize I am sort of on my back.  I am just curious about what everyone else heard or was told by their dr.  TIA.

    Mine told me not to worry about it because once you're big enough for it to matter, you'll be tossing and turning enough that it won't be a big deal...

    you can s till do it now. Its for later on when the uterus is heavy. Dont worry, your body will let you know.  For instance...you won't be able to breath. haha

    I sleep on my back or belly if I still can.

    On my back I feel my hard belly and its sort of not so comfy.

    Sleep how you are comfy now! and don't worry if you wake up in your sleep and are in a no no position, your body will wake you and warn you if you need to move.  The human body is super amazing, even more so during pregnancy.

    THIS!! Right now there's not enough weight to cause circulatory probs, so go for it. (The only problem for me is that it makes me have to pee more! My side lets me hold a little more at night.)

    I still sleep on my back. your body will tell you when its time to switch over to your side. If you have pressure on your chest and its hard to breath then its time to switch to the side.
