Risks of sleeping on stomach?

So I'm 25 weeks pregnant and most mornings wake up on my stomach. I obviously don't fall asleep like it, usually on my side or sometimes back but am worrying as the baby is only getting bigger and it's not advised? I must be turning once in a deep sleep...

I wouldn't worry to much I did that most my pregnancy and as I got bigger I just didn't end up on my front as much. Talk to your midwife but mine wasn't that concerned

There isn’t risks as such it’s just that it becomes pretty much impossible as you get bigger. The risk is on your back

I'm impressed you still can! I'm a front sleeper and stopped around 16 weeks as it got uncomfortable

Front is fine if you are still comfortable dong so, it's sleeping on your back you need to try and avoid
