No more back sleeping for me!!!

Woke up last night mid suffocation. Apparently while sleeping on my back (which I need to do every now and then to make the hip pain go away) the contents of my stomach thought it necessary to flow into the back of my throat, cutting off my air supply. I haven't moved that fast in awhile, out of bed and into all fours to heave everything onto the bedroom floor. Very scary experience!!! Needless to say I won't make sleeping on my back a habit anymore! Anyone else have something like this happen?

  • I was reading my 4 year old a book the other night and was on my back with my head on his pillow beside him. It made me sick to my stomach and I promptly threw up. 

    A few nights later I was watching tv in my bedroom on my back. I threw up again. 

    SO- I feel your pain. :)

  • I stopped a few months ago when I started seeing stars. :( I hate side sleeping!
  • I fell asleep on my back the other night and woke up puking in my bed. YUCK. so I went out and bought another body pillow to but behind my back, this way if I roll over I wont be completely on my back. its only been a few nights but it seems to be helping.
