lying on my back at 3rd tri

Hello, Mom. I'm really confused right now. Entering the third trimester, my body feels completely out of sorts. Pain, aches... the only thing that makes me feel better is lying on my back or at least half-lying down (leaning back). But they say as the baby gets bigger, you shouldn't stay in that position for too long... I can't take it anymore, I cry almost every day because my body feels like it's falling apart. Does anyone have any advice? 😭

LOL to be honest in the delivery suite they make u lie on your back (FOR AS LONG AS YOUR LABOUR TAKES) while waiting to dilate also. just towards the end around 7-8cm they will ask you turn left and right to make baby comfortable if baby is stressed. So i dont see a problem with lying on your back if it makes you comfortable. A lot of pregnant mummies cant lie on back de, tailbone will break from weight of baby 😂 i couldn’t even do my lashes without turning every 2 mins 😅

Same here, u can try to put a pillow for back support at night, at least the back is tilted and not totally flat. This works for me, and this also ensure that I dont sleep on my back unknowingly during middle of the night. Jia You!

been sleeping on my back .currently 27weeks. doc said ok too. I can't sleep on left side either. will have severe thigh and leg pain if I sleep on left...been a back sleeper all my life

currently 38 weeks, and have been sleeping on my back throughout the whole pregnancy. do what is best / most comfortable for you! my gynae has no concerns about me sleeping on my back.

i have the same problem. i did ask my aunt for advise since she is a nurse. she said it is okay to lying down on ur back for awhile.
