Did you feel werid sleeping on your stomach while you where pregnant? For me in my first pregnancy it was werid or odd to sleeping my stomach till the second trimester and I started to show. Now with my second pregnancy it feel werid to sleep on my stomach even in the first trimester. I guess it's because I'm starting to get big already then when I was pregnant with my daughter. Did you experiences this?

With my daughter, I really didn't have too many problems sleeping on my stomach early in my pregnancy, but as it went on, it became nearly impossible for me to sleep on my stomach. After my daughter was born, I've actually never been able to sleep on my stomach since then. So I can't tell you how I felt about sleeping on my stomach when I was pregnant with my son. What I do remember is that it became almost impossible to lay on my stomach to watch television very early in my pregnancy with my son.

They say a lot of moms the second time they are pregnant they tend to show earlier on. Some times I can sleep on my stomach and other times I'm not. It just depends on the night and I guess the gas build up. Almost in the second trimester so being comfy is slowly ending.

I was very nervous to sleep on my stomach the second time around because I didn't want anything to happen and just like you I was showing earlier than with my first. My advice would be to not sleep on your stomach if you feel uncomfortable, however in your first trimester the baby is so tiny you cannot do any harm. After about 3-4 months is when I stopped sleeping on my stomach.

There is ways to harm the baby this early on just not by sleeping. I think it is becUse you k ow I'm getting bigger. I have to sleep more on my side since it doesn't feel odd to me. I'm almost 3 months.
