Sleeping posture

Well, I don't know what direction my head and feet point in when I am sleeping because we have recently moved our bed around in the room and I also don't have a compass to be able to tell it. That said, I sleep on one of my two sides almost 100 percent of the time. I keep two comforters and a sheet on the bed in addition to having an extra blanket in case I get cold. I love having the weight of the blankets over me while I am sleeping.

I always start sleeping on my right side and sleep that way for most of the night. Sometimes I will switch to my left for awhile. If I'm having a hard time sleeping I will sleep on my stomach as for some reason I find that soothing and I often fall asleep. But the problem with that is I usually end up with back pain. When I do this I try to remember to put a pillow underneath my stomach to prevent my back from sinking in and it helps to some degree. I usually try to avoid sleeping in this position if I can. I always sleep with a sheet and comforter all year around unless it's really chilly I will add a thick blanket. I'm in Canada so sometimes it can get quite cold but most of the time where I am the temps. are decent.

yipes! that must have been awful! i have fibromyalgia and in constant pain so i have to be careful how i sleep. i am always cold, so i always have a blanket or 3 (especially in our cold canadian winter).

I really feel the cold so at the moment we've got two duvets and an electric blanket! I have to sleep on my back with a big pillow under my knees to help with my knee and back pain. It often keeps me up unfortunately.

hi professor I have to sleep on my left side to get any sleep and am not sure why this is.I have a lot of allergies that keep me awake although I use benadryl ever night. lately I sleep til 3;30 am then wake up and have a hard time getting back to sleep. This morning I just finally gave up and got up. Now I am sleepy and expect company so cannot really count on getting any naps in today.Sometimes one cannot seem to win in getting really good sleep at night when you really should be sleeping. em]thumbup[/em]

I am not blessed with good sleep. my husband comes home after midnight from his work. He wants me to serve dinner for him. After going to bed my children call me in the middle of the sleep. So my sleep is always disturbed by my husband and my children. As I don't have enough sleep I don't bother about the directions. But all of the beds in my house are facing east west direction.

If I sleep on back it has to be with me propt up some and I switch from side to side during the night havent slept on tummy for a long time. Use pillows sheets and a blanket now it is gtting cooler for we dont have the heat on much unless the temps drop alots

Hello Professor2010! I sleep flat on my back when I am trying to get sleep but sometimes when I wake up, I find myself lying on the left side. I am not really very particular with my sleep position, as long as my bed is comfortable, it would be enough, I use a comforter as well. I can't sleep without it, it gets too cold at night so I have to cover myself before I freeze. Cheers!
