on your side (either left or right, but everyone always recommends the left side) with some sort of extra pillow wedged between your knees. Try a large body pillow. It may take a little time getting used to, but it's worth it.

Well when i was pregnant i had trouble finding a good position to sleep on then i one night i decided to put a pillow between my legs and it worked. Lie on your left side and put a nice big pillow between your legs you choose the size. Try lifting your right leg as far up as you can while keeping your left leg straight remember not to lay on your stomach. Hope this works for you and i hope i explained it as good as possible.

In whatever position makes you the most comfortable. I had twins and late in my pregnancy I had to surround myself with pillows to balance the weight. There seemed to be arms and legs sticking out everywhere and they (the babies) were little footballers. The babies are well protected, so don't worry about hurting them. Find a position that suits you and sleep that way.

I am 23 weeks pregnant and for me the best position for sleeping is on my back with my legs over my partner.

What ever way you can get comfortable
It is not recommended that you lay flat on your back when you are late in pregancy due to baby laying on major vein cutting off blood flow to you and the baby, but usually you can not get comfortable enough to stay in any postion very long.

u will need to sleep on ur back for longer whiles.it's good to maintain the pregnancy.later on u'll feel that sleeping on ur sides is more comfortable,coz on ur back u'll have difficulties to breath.never to sleep on ur stomach.also don't turn a lot from side to side,i heard it's dangerous ,something like that the umbilical chord might go round the baby's neck.

depends really, if you have problems with your back you could prop yourself up slightly with pillows and sleep on your back but alot of women especially in the final stages of pregnancy sleep on their side with their leg bent and put out in front of them for stability.

The bigger your bump the harder it is to get comfortable. I found putting a triangular pillow between my knees and under my bump helped.:0)
