Is it really that bad? I have 7 weeks to go and sometimes the only thing that relieves my back pain is to lay flat on my back with pillows under my knees... Should i not be doing this?
they say i puts pressure on a vein that delivers blood and all that to your baby, but i read something earlier that says it doesn't hinder the flow enough to really cause any problems for your baby. you might want to ask your doctor, but, imo i don't think it'll hurt your lil one any.
I also lay tilted, a pillow wedged under one hip. It makes my upper back feel better.
I think laying on your back can cause dizziness and lightheadedness. If you feel fine and the baby is moving alright, its probably ok. You can check with your dr.
I sleep on my back all the time. I fall asleep on my side but wake up on my back. I'm so worried that it will hurt the baby but I'm sleeping. I can't help it. I'm glad I'm not the only one laying or wanting to lay on there back
As long as you're able to its fine. I was able to the whole time with my youngest but thid time around can't breathe which makes elevating my sausage swollen feet impossible lol
