All right....prepare. I know this may sound somewhat..."first tri-ish". Who actually successfully sleeps on their left side? And HOW? I've been lucky if I sleep more than three good hours per night much less sleeping on my left side. Just curious!
I try, but I am such a toss-and-turner that is next to impossible to stay that way. I usually wake up on my back or on my stomach. I think I'm going to buy some new pillows, my body pillow is old and mushed up.
I have to get up to pee 9,000 times every night, so I don't get a lot of sleep. I'm a big time stomach sleeper, and it's starting to feel like I'm sleeping on a rock.

I sleep whatever way I can-left, right, back. I was a tummy sleeper so any of those positions suck for me. I prop myself with a series of pillows or my DH's body. If only I could get my bladder to cooperate at night now.
The funny thing with me is before I was pregnant that was all I was able to do was sleep on my left side and now it seems as if I can't stand it for more than two hours.
I toss and turn all night, but really just sleep however I can get comfortable. Usually that means cuddling a pillow so that I am half on my stomach and half on my side. Stomach sleeping is definitely out of the question as well back sleeping for me, so that doesnt leave me with a lot of options.?
DH complains because our bed is half pillows now. I've got a body pillow in the middle of the bed, and I wedge a couple pillows behind my back to try and make myself stay on my side. Doesn't work all that well. Lots of times I wake up on my back.
Re: zzzzzzz's
I've always been a side sleeper but it's harder for me now that I'm pregnant. I flip flop all night long from one side to another.
The new fun thing is I wake up and my hands are asleep. It makes hitting the snooze button interesting.
