can i sleep on my right side?

or is it just as bad as being on my back? being on my back makes her heart rate drop :/

sleep however you want. i slept on my right side everyday with my son.

I always sleep on my side

well i sleep on my left side like my doctor said. he said nothing about if it's okay on my right.... just not to sleep on my back

One side is not superior (studies have proved this) as long as you aren't flat on your back you are fine

I have to sleep on my right side most of the time. If I lay on my back or left my stomach and hips just hurt or I'm extremely uncomfortable.

thats good to know   i couldn't find anything on it

yeah i have to switch from one side to the other cause my legs will cramp up on me  

I slept however I was comfortable, with my youngest I actually slept on my stomach with a body pillow

i slept flat on my back a lot.

baby will wake you up if you need to move.

How will a baby having decels because the uterus is compressing the vena cava gonna wake you up? That's just dumb to say

she never wakes me up when i sleep. i don't feel her even move cause i'm a deep sleeper.

I sleep on my back, right, left side, but I'm never flat onmy back.

what?

i don't even know what that means. i never had issues sleeping however i wanted with either of my pregnancies. these are some things i've found on one site, first from a dr. the others just from pregnant ladies...

"Of course, when you're sleeping you can't control what position you're in. If you wake up on your back, it's probably because your body was telling you to shift your position."

"I am a back-sleeper, so I asked my OB about whether or not it was OK to sleep that way when I was about 20 weeks since I started to get uncomfortable on my side. He said it's fine, to sleep however you are comfortable. He said that if it's causing you or the baby distress while you're sleeping, your body will wake up and you'll change positions."

"My OB/GYN says the maxim that you "can't sleep on your back" during pregnancy is an old wives' tale. She says that you ought to sleep in whatever way is most comfortable for you, from the first 'til the last month. If you're doing something constricting, your body will tell you, and you'll shift positions."

i've also read it on here a lot.

I've never had a baby wake me with movement either. Contractions have awakened me never movement. I've also watch kids crap out on the monitor and walk in and find mom laying on her back snoring. I wake her and roll her to the side and boom baby recovers. Mom never would have noticed had I nor been monitoring her
