sleeping on your side

When are you supposed to start sleeping on your side? I know at one point you are supposed to avoid the back but I wasn't sure when.

    I think it's around 24w or so ... but the bottom line is that your body will tell you it's not comfortable, and that's when you know it's time.

    It's actually more like 16, but ditto the PP.. your body will tell you when it's time. I slept on my left side so much when I was pregnant that I still have trouble sleeping any other way now.

    I've also heard 16 weeks. ?Also, I also heard "your body will tell you when it's no longer good" but mine never did...even at 40 weeks I slept soundly on my back, much as I tried to stay on my side. ?Body pillows help.

    can't sleep on your back after 16 week and left side is best. I still sleep on both sides, spending most of the night on my left side and then switching somewhere in early morning.?

    I just read in YPWBW that at 16 weeks you should try not to sleep on your back anymore.  Since I hit 16 weeks on Friday, it has been quite a chore to get comfortable since I tend to fall asleep on my side, but wake up on my back.

    I am going to ask my dr at my appt tomorrow though.
