Just wondering... I am 13 weeks and have a pouch but not a solid bump yet. Is it still ok to sleep on my belly? It is my favourite position!!! Thanks :)

Sleep on your tummy until it is comfortable for you. You will know when it isnt, or baby will tell you! I stopped sleeping on my tummy at probably around 25 weeks or maybe even later.

Agree, stop when it's uncomfortable. Actually, that's probably the only thing you can do, as you'd roll over when asleep anyhow.

i managed to sleep on my tummy right until the end. i'd go to sleep on my side but wake up on my tummy.

in yoga you must stop lying on once tummy starting 2nd trimester. if it not okay to hold postures for a few seconds, i would imagine sleeping is out of question...
