Question of the Day- March 6th Friday

Sleeping habits is the question of the Day. Are you a side sleeper, back sleeper, tummy sleeper or are you all over the place?


I sleep all over the place. From my side, to my back, to my stomach and back again. The last two nights I've had my c-pap my DH said I haven't moved a muscle in my sleep and stayed on my back all night. I wonder
if it will always be this way or if I will start rolling again as I become comfortable to the machine.

I usually sleep all over the place.

On my tummy...with one orange tabby plastered to my side and another between my legs.

awww.. what a lovely description!...

Back sleeper here!..

We both are more of all over - but tend to sleep more on the side. Funny thing is that if one of us changes position, the other one almost always matches

I only sleep on one side or the other, I do not sleep well on my back or stomach.

I can only sleep on my right side. Bijou gets very upset if I turn over - he won't sleep beside me unless I'm on my right side. He'll lay half across my head on my pillow until I turn over onto my right side.

I also don't move very much. When I get up in the morning I lay the covers back to get out and then just lay them back up on the pillow and my bed is made.

DITTO! Except it's Minka at my side and Taxi between my legs. Although sometimes Minka will pillow-share with me.

Definitely a side sleeper. Usually my right side, but not always.

I sleep on my stomach with my head turned to the side normally....sometimes I sleep on my side...and well lately I just toss and turn all night lol!

Side sleeper, mostly left side. For some reason if I try to lay on my back or right side for long I get nauseous and feel weird. GI doc was puzzled over this, but I'm guessing it's from GERD and maybe vagus nerve related.

All over the place for me. I tend to toss and turn all night. I sleep best on my back, but when I do I fold my arms up under my head. I was told not to do that by my doctor b/c of my shoulders, so I try to avoid that position.

I sleep on my back or side, never on my stomach.

I usually sleep on my tummy with one of my legs stretched out to one side and bent at the knee...I alternate between which legs is straight and which is bent and stretched out to the side throughout the night

I sleep on my back mostly. Tre sleeps against my left hip and Promise sleeps up against my crotch. Sometime in the wee hours of the morning, Thufir will jump up on the bed and he has trained me to roll onto my right side so he can climb under the covers and snuggle with me. He'll only do it on the right side -- if I roll onto my left he'll just sit on the head board and swat my head with his paw.

I lie on my back when I first get into bed and, left to my own devices, roll over onto my right side before I fall asleep. Mostly that's where I sleep. But it's all dependent on where Cindy decides to settle. Sometimes that's between Daddy and Mummy, sometimes at the foot of the bed, sometimes downstairs, and in any of these cases, Plan A is in effect. However, she does like to lie between my legs, and if she settles there before I fall asleep, I'm on my back until she moves or Mother Nature calls. Occasionally I'll roll to the left for a short while, usually if I'm sleeping particularly hot, and need to expose my back to the breezes.

I'm a side sleeper. I start off on the left side, then roll onto my right side after 10-15 minutes, after that i hardly move

I tend to sleep on my back with my arms stretched above my head. I don't think I move enough, and sometimes get cramps from being in one position too long.
Wish we could have the kitties sleeping with us, but Wiggs just keeps us awake all night unless we lock them up.

I tend to sleep more on my left side and my stomach, I find these positions more comfortable. I can't sleep on my back for too long due to my asthma, it hurts to breathe after so long and I have to move again.

I always sleep on my stomach. My physical therapist recommended that I sleep with a pillow under my hips (because of my spondylolisthesis) and I am much more comfortable....that is, unless I move off it during the night. If that happens, I can barely stand upright in the morning! I usually wind up with Cleo or Lola sleeping in the small of my back...which adds to my back pain woes, but I never have the heart to make them move!
