When do you have to stop lying on your front?

Is it just when you are uncomfortable?
I'm trying to get my back and bum and legs brown...

Put a pillow above and below your bump.

I don't think I have much of a bump yet, only 11 weeks, so it's safe to just flop on tummy , isn't it?

I have a bit of a bump but I think it is cheese cracker and peanut butter toast related (was all I wanted to eat for about 4 weeks).

Well I'm 30 weeks and still wake up on my bump some mornings.

I can't see how you are going to do any harm to your baby by lying on your front - especially at 11 weeks - it's very well custioned in there.

Be careful you don't overheat though and drink plenty.

I think you should be fine, I didn't consciously realise that I gad stopped sleeping on my front, my body just kind of wouldn't let me, does that even make sense?

I was about 20 weeks and this is dc3 for me.

I'm 30wks now and am resorting to fake bake as I really can't lie on my tummy now, bump most definitely there loud and proud!!

Enjoy the sun....(some of us are at work!)

I'm 25 weeks and still lay on my tummy, but I find I can less time there as it gets uncomfortable after a while. I think its 30 weeks onwards you are recommended to be mainly on your left when laying down, should be fine at 11 weeks I would have thought.

Thanks, you get so many random bits of advice when you are pregnant. I couldn't see how it was a problem to lie on front at 11 weeks but thought I'd better consult the MN oracle anyway.
