I'm 22 weeks and have no real bump (just look fat), are there any problems with me sleeping on my stomach?
It's one position I can get comfortable in, alongside a running kind of position, half front half left side.

The baby is well protected in there. If you still feel comfortable sleeping on your stomach then go for it. It won't be like that for much longer. I am 32 weeks and it isn't an option anymore sadly.

I couldn't do it now at 21 weeks, it's been uncomfortable to even roll over that way for weeks!

I'm a front sleeper and have felt uncomfortable on my tummy since about 9/10 weeks. I've got a v-pillow which makes other positions more comfortable. The body keeps trying for its favourite position though!! Old habits and all that...

Sleep on your tum for as long as you can without discomfort. It won't harm baby and you will miss it later.

Carry on sleeping however you want to as long as you're comfortable.
I'm a front sleeper and finally at 28 weeks I can't do it any longer. Even with pregnancy pillow I'm struggling to get comfortable on my side ...its just not the same!

27 weeks and I miss being able to sleep on my front...make the most of it while you can!

I'd LOVE to be able to sleep on my front. 22 weeks to, but it is out of the question. Make the most of it!

I'm a front sleeper always have been and I continued to the whole way through my first pregnancy but this time 19wks and look very pregnant already and am struggling to get comfortable in any position but if I could I absolutely would be on my front
