So have you been having a hard time with pregnancy sleeping? Back in the good old days, before you became pregnant, you probably slept like a baby. But, with pregnancy comes sacrifices and oftentimes one of those sacrifices is a getting a good nights sleep. Why does this have to be? Isnt it enough that a mother to be has to deal with backache, heartburn, swollen ankles, and any other number of physical discomforts. Why, on top of all of that, does she have t lose her precious sleep? First of all, please do not feel alone in your plight. Many women who are pregnant face challenges with pregnancy sleeping. Back when your mother was expecting you she probably experienced the same sleeping problems that you are facing now. But take heart; there are things you can do to get a better nights sleep during pregnancy. One of the main culprits stealing your precious zzzs is your own baby growing inside you. As your baby grows bigger and bigger their increasing size and weight make it very difficult to get into a comfortable sleeping position. If you are a tummy sleeper you can rule out sleeping in that position a few months into pregnancy and doctors now recommend against sleeping on your back for health reasons. The best thing you can do to help ensure a good nights sleep during pregnancy is to early on get in the habit of sleeping on your side, particularly your left side. This will lead to a more comfortable nights sleep as you baby grows by keeping their weight off of your spine and internal organs. Doctors actually recommend the left side sleeping position for these very reasons. To help you maintain this side sleeping position and to sleep more comfortable get yourself a maternity pillow. These full body pillows provide excellent comfort and support for expectant mothers by supporting the weight of your growing tummy. They are also recommended by doctors to keep you in the side sleeping position. Maternity pillows offer the most comfortable experience for pregnancy sleeping. Back to a great nights sleep with maternity pillows.
