Sleeping on your back while pregnant isn't completely banned. It's best to sleep on your left side (preferable with one leg crossed over the other with a pillow between them) because it not only allows the most blood flow and nutrients to the placenta but it also means less swelling of hands, legs, and feet. Sleeping on your back rests the entire weight of your pregnant self on all your organs and can initiate backaches and circulation. But, don't fear if you flip over onto your back during the night. If baby isn't getting enough oxygen, you'll wake up feeling dizzy and hard of breathing.
