Sleeping on Your Back while Pregnant

Getting a good night sleep when you are pregnant can be tricky. With a big tummy and pressure everywhere, it is very hard to find a comfortable position. During the beginning stages of pregnancy, sleep position is not much of an issue. But, as the baby continues to grow, there are really only two positions that are safe for a pregnant woman to sleep: upright or on her side.

The problems with sleeping on your stomach are pretty obvious, but many are confused as to why they cannot sleep on their back. While it may seem comfy, the weight of your enlarged uterus can actually pose serious risk to you if you sleep on your back while pregnant. The pressure of the uterus on your diaphragm can interfere with your breathing. Another problem with sleeping on your back is that your uterus also puts a lot of pressure on your aorta, which is a major blood vessel.
