So is it actually bad for baby for me to stil be sleeping on my tummy??
Coz I fall alseep on my size/tummy ish and quiet offen wake on my tummy and I feel bad in case it was hurting baby!! With Leah I stopped sleeping on my tummy at 19weeks coz it wasnt comfy anymore but its been fine this time!! -------------

As long as its comfy.. not much you can do if you are doing it in your sleep LOL
I slept much longer on my tummy with O than I did with J and he turned out fine  -------------

I was concerned about that and asked my MW she said if its comfy do it. She told me she's a tummy sleeper and used to sleep with her leg right up and kinda rolled on her side ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I still sometimes end up on my tummy and will get given a boot if bubs isn't too happy about it.
I'm sure they will let you know if they are getting squashed or uncomfortable in anyway. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I've been told that you can for as long as its comfortable but have been warned off sleeping on my back - I feel quite relaxed though because i tend to turn onto my back in the middle of the night but i wake up and can move and my midwife told me if i wake up its great because its baby telling me i need to move off my back!!

I couldnt sleep on my tummy from real early on, it felt weeeiirdd and very uncomfy! but I carry all out the front so thats probably why!
My MW always said to me though "Sleep however you feel comfy, back side tummy, just what ever is most comfy, it doesnt matter!" ------------- |
