Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: debidoo on July 18, 2014, 01:45:38 pm: Toss and turn between each side all night. Try to get on my back but that allows my sleep apnea mask to leak so I have to roll onto one side or the other when that wakes me up. Can't sleep on stomach for sure.

But most of the time I sleep sitting up in a chair.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: vg7405 on July 19, 2014, 03:12:03 am: I generally sleep on my back but always, always, always wake up on my left side. I rarely sleep on a pillow (although I put the pillow over my eyes to block light, LOL); for some reason, it is the best position for me to sleep in.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: Timberlan127 on July 19, 2014, 03:26:13 am: I'm a restless sleeper. I tend to start out on my side and wake up on my back most of the time.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: djohnson43 on July 19, 2014, 06:45:46 am: I am a side sleeper. If I lay on my back more then an hour I end up in pain. But when I am having an asthma attack the back is the best position for me no matter what I prefer.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: Penwoir on July 19, 2014, 10:57:03 am: Before I had children, I used to sleep totally on my front with my hands tucked under my tummy and my head to one side. I guess I must have looked like I was on a slalom. When I became pregnant and couldn't lay on my tummy, I started laying in the recovery position and have done so ever since! My son, who is now 10, lays forward with his legs crossed under him. It looks really uncomfortable but that has always been his 'content' position.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: moon29 on July 20, 2014, 06:28:31 am: i typically sleep on my side but everyonce in awhile i sleep on my tummy. since my son has been born i usually sleep on the very edge of my bed because he and my husband are such bed hogs.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?

Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: DeonaDollar on July 20, 2014, 08:44:42 pm: I prefer to sleep on my side but recently my circulation is messed up so my arms will go numb if I do. I have to be wrapped up in my comforter or sleeping bag a certain way or I can't sleep.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: catherinedwhite on July 20, 2014, 10:11:28 pm: Mainly I sleep leaning on a body pillow. So a bit on my back and my side.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: misi49 on July 20, 2014, 10:24:02 pm: I always sleep on my sides. First, on my left side and then I turn over and go to my right side. I continue this until I fall asleep. The few times I have slept on my back was when I didn't feel good in my stomach. I could never sleep on my stomach.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: nmbrown863 on July 20, 2014, 11:44:49 pm: I used to only sleep on my side but here lately I have been waking up with sore shoulders from that position. I have been trying to sleep on my stomach or back b/c of it.
Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: tikihut5 on July 21, 2014, 02:35:27 am: I sleep on all sides because I toss and turn. Usually it's whatever is comfortable, even if it's ditching the pillow and putting my face on the edge of the mattress. Sometimes in my sleep, I think I try positions that only a cat could achieve because I wake up sore. :)

Post by: davidh121 on July 28, 2014, 09:59:32 pm: I am in all positions. I fall asleep on my sides or my back, but usually wake up on my stomach. One thing I'm good at, however, is staying in one place. I'm not a bed hog at all. Maybe it's due to prior partners always taking up all the space.

Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: linderlizzie on August 07, 2014, 09:57:08 am: I guess we all change positions as we sleep. I start out on my back and then go from one side to another. Obviously, I wake up and turn to get more comfortable.

I sleep on my back.

Title: Re: Which position do you sleep in?
Post by: sherryinutah on September 06, 2014, 09:48:10 am: I usually do some break dancing in bed before I fall alseep. It's good that I sleep alone or my partner would feel tortured every night before I fall asleep.

I like being on my side where my arm is stretched up under my pillow. That way my body doesn't smash my neck/shoulder.

The bottom line is....

I land where I land and I celebrate, when I wake up, if I actually CAN sleep. :heart:
