shall i sleep on right side during pregnancy, am 20 weeks pregnant now
Hi all, for me its 19 weeks 2 days, can I sleep on right side while sleeping can't sleep in same position. Feeling uncomfortable pls suggest me the good sleeping position
It’s usually recommended to sleep on your side during pregnancy, especially as you progress later on. The most recommended is on the left side, so that baby doesn’t press down on the big blood vessel that brings blood back to the heart, but honestly, lying on the right side for a while’s perfectly fine:) If you need to lie on your back for a while, prop yourself up with pillows. Lying only on the left the whole night can be uncomfortable.
Read moreThe recommendation is side sleeping, while some moms prefer the left due to less pressure on the organs. Can use pillows or specialised pregnancy bolsters to support. Sleeping on the back may cause power birth weight of the baby due to pressure that restricts blood flow in a major blood vessel that circulates to reach the baby.

I’m sleeping on my left and I put pillows on my right to prevent myself from turning over as I always end up on my back (my usual sleeping habit before pregnancy)
I usually slept on my right side, because it's comfortable to me and it's not advisable to lay your back on the bed because it will hurt your spine. 😩
Ideally on the left side. But right side is fine too. Whichever is more comfortable for u to have a good sleep. Just not on your back.
You can sleep either on right of left side, though left side is more recommended
Left side best but i tend to sleep right first then rotate as leg pain of sleep long
Best to sleep on your left side
Left side for blood circulation
