Help! Tips for side sleeping

Hi everyone! I am a back sleeper and am unable to sleep on my side (will turn naturally on my back when asleep). I know this is bad in the long run, any tips to force yourself to side sleep? Thanks in advance!

As others have suggested, you can put a pillow/bolster or even blanket behind you to prevent you from turning. As your stomach gets bigger, you will also naturally find it uncomfortable to sleep on your back (breathlessness or squashed up feeling). For me it’s 35wks onwards.
