I am all over the place on this, I was always a stomach sleeper until years ago when back Dr. told me to sleep on back, no pillows. This worked for several years, but last few, I have been restless and toss and turn all night, back problem will not let me stay comfortable in one position.

I can not fall asleep until Roy comes to bed. He has a bad shoulder so he must fall asleep while on his right side. I snuggle up to him for approx 20 minutes and then I have to turn over onto my left side to get some relief from his body heat. As soon as I turn over onto my left side I fall asleep. However, I do wake up a couple of hours later because my hip starts hurting and at this time I roll over onto my back and fall asleep instantly. Unfortunately I snore on my back ( where I seem to be most comfortable) so Roy punches me in the stomach so I'll turn back over on my side and he can sleep.

I move around until I finally accept that I will not get sleepy until I lay on my left side. I fall asleep and then have vocal conversations and sleep eat. No telling how I return to bed. Drives James crazy……...

Mostly on my sides, but spend most of the night rolling around trying to find a good spot that is not too hot!

I sleep in every position, right side seems to be where I wake up in the morning. Sleeping in my spa is nice. Napping near a stream when fishing is restful. Meditation sleeping is usually very brief as is sleeping on a toilet seat. Sleeping at church was interrupted too often so I stopped going to church. Sleeping under a tree on a sunny day is pleasant. So now I think I'll take a nap.

Uusually people sleep on the right side - The heart being on the left and I believe it is also to do with the amount of lung space available - I have a lapse of memory here again. I am all over the place wriggling around every which way - also partly to do with the brain not relaxing. However, I do have shoulder, back and neck problems - still have a fracture of my back since last year and have oesteoporosis. I like Julie use medication, but seem to be getting immune to the tablets.

Clonge you're on a roll! Great! Me back, then left side. Then right side. I'm a light sleeper so i'm aware when i'm sleep. (too bad in a way.) i'm a lucid dreamer too. meaning i'm aware of what i dream when i'm dreaming it. most of the time i remember my dreams. sometimes i don't. sweet dreams.

When I was skinny , which was most of my life, I enjoyed sleeping on my stomach. Then, when I gained weight, b/c of my hysterectomy, I couldn't sleep on my stomach anymore. I miss that !
Now, I start out on my left side, which is the most comfortable for me. Then, a few hours later, after I come back from the bathroom, I lay down on my right side.
