A member asked:
Im 37 weeks pregnant and have been side sleeping as recommended during the third trimesters. how soon, after the baby is born, can i return to back sleeping?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
When you decide to. Side sleeping takes the babies weight/mass off your blood vessels sending blood to the placenta. Good blood flow= best baby health. Once the kid is out you can do what you want.
