A member asked:
Hey there, i am 6 months pregnant and during night time i keep rolling from my l to r sides because i get tired of sleeping on my l side, is it true it's not safe for me and the baby to sleep on the r side?

Side to side: When pregnant, switching from side to side will not compromise the aorta or inferior vena cava(blood supply to baby's placenta). However, sleeping on the left side is preferable and is aided by propping extra pillows in that position. The most unfavorable sleeping position is on your back.
