A good night’s sleep is always important. Now that you are expecting a baby, your body is doing the extra work of growing a baby inside it. Thus, proper sleep is all the more important for you. This article will help you understand sleep positions during pregnancy and also help you answer your questions such as
And many such concerns and doubts you might have. So sit back, and read on!
Let us look at all the sleeping positions in which one would typically sleep and see whether they should be preferred or avoided during pregnancy.
If sleeping on your sides does not come naturally to you, here is how you can make sleeping on the sides work for you through different trimesters of pregnancy.
Early on, it does not matter which sleeping position during the first trimester you adopt. But eventually, it will be better for you and your baby if you start sleeping on your side, especially on your left side; thus, early practice can help you. Sleeping on your sides with a pillow between your legs can give you practice and prepare you for side sleeping in the coming months.
Your natural sleeping position in the second trimester should be on your sides, as your belly has already started to show, and sleeping on your back will start becoming uncomfortable. Invest in a good pregnancy pillow at this stage. A pregnancy pillow can give your body the required shape and support while lying or sleeping on your sides and help reduce backaches by maintaining a good spine position.
During the last few weeks, changing position during sleep in pregnancy can be a big challenge due to the belly weight. Thus third trimester pregnancy sleeping positions will be limited to either sleeping on the sides or even just sitting with your back and feet rested and sleeping like that, especially if you are carrying twins or multiples.
Continue using a pregnancy pillow till your labour day. You can also try elevating your bed a little from the head side for a more comfortable sleep.
As much as comfortable sleeping positions during pregnancy are important, it is also vital to relax, let go of the stress and take frequent breaks and rest during pregnancy. A healthy, well-rested body is better prepared for childbirth and the phase after childbirth that might change your sleep schedules as per your baby’s schedule. So, rest up, sleep well, and have a happy and comfortable pregnancy!
