What sleep position is best?
Consider these tips:
- Favor your side. Avoid sleeping on your back, which can put the weight of your uterus on your spine and back muscles. But don't worry if you wake up on your back.
- Use pillows. Carefully placed pillows can help you get comfortable. Try placing a pillow between your bent knees or under your belly.
