When should you stop
sleeping on your stomach?
I have tried to sleep in other positions, but find myself on my stomach often. I am 7 weeks and noticed it is not as comfy as it used to be, but I keep ending up that way.

Try using pillows to help you sleep on your side. My OB told me that your body is a "machine" and it will let you know when you can't sleep like that any longer.

Re: When should you stop
That is my favorite way to sleep, I am 12 weeks. My doctor said it will become uncomfortable when I should stop, he said around 16 weeks or so. I am enjoying it while I can.

that's pretty much what my OB told me too - I actually slept on my back for most of my pregnancy, even at the end

I'm a stomach sleeper and I continued to sleep that way until it became uncomfortable (I can't remember when that was though.)

Re: When should you stop
Sleep however you're comfortbale. Your body will tell you when you should switch positions. I still often find myself on my back and I'm 34 weeks- I'm just happy when I can sleep at all at this point.
