What does my sleeping position say abou me?




I like to sleep on my stomach with my legs making a 4. I can’t sleep any other way unless im in a deep sleep and I wake up in a different position but always go back to my "4" position if i’m going to stay asleep for a while longer.
What does my sleeping position say about me?

I know that sleeping on your side instead of your stomach helps, but I can’t decide how to sleep if I’m sleeping at the time. I need something else… Please, anything.

I know that sleeping on your stomach is bad and sleeping on your left side is the best but whay is sleeping on your back supposedly bad for the baby?

Is this an old wives tale?

What are some ways to stop snoring?




I snore when I sleep and I’m always tired because I think I don’t get restive sleep. What are some ways–like sleeping on my stomach, for example–that I can combat my snoring problem without having to go see a sleep specialist or have surgery?

I am a mouth breather during the day and snore really loud at nite with my mouth open. Could I possibly not have sleep apnea and just be a loud snorer? I would be unable to do a overnite sleep study. I snore really loud whether on my back, side, stomach, etc., and Im told my mouth is always wide open.

I am currently taking sleeping pills but I would like to stop. I gave a try to Valerian roots , it was working fine but I had stomach issues so I had to stop taking them. I exercise but nothing seems to help so far.

My bottle of Melatonin says to take one pill each night, and I’m a small person, I took six, and now my head and stomach hurt, and I’m dizzy.

I’ve been having a lot of pain in my neck and was wondering the best way to help it at night when I’m sleeping. I sleep on my side or stomach mostly. I am unable to sleep on my back. I thought about buying one of those neck pillows, but I’m not sure I’d be comfortable. Any recommendations? Also, I don’t want to spend a fortune!
I went to the chiropractor today. I will get my x-ray results Tuesday, however, I would like a cheaper alternative that I can do on my own.

Why is he having sleep problems?




My 8 month old was sleeping through the night perfectly fine for about 5 months(minus a cry here and there for help finding his binky) and all of a sudden now he is waking up every 3-4 hours to eat again. I have tried leaving him to see if he puts himself back to sleep but that ends up in a full scream and when I pick him up his stomach is always growling, he eats well during the day so I don’t know what else to do. Has anyone else gone through this?

Ambien??????????????????????




I took 1 ambien 10mg about over an hour ago on an empy stomach and i feel nothing. Nothing like everyone else feels. Not even drowsiness. My bf took 1 and he feels everything and is asleep now. Why isn’t it working? No effects at all? FYI I take 10 mg prozac a day.

i am 26 years old and have had fibromyalgia since i was 14 (!! i know!)

i was initially diagnosed when i was 14, but was so young and naiive, i shrugged it off.

about a month ago, i thought i had double ear infections and my jaw was killing me. i was diagnosed with TMJ. i started wearing a night guard and the symptoms have subsided for the most part other than occasional clenching.

i suffer from almost daily migraine headaches, dibilitating trigger point pain, brain "fog", i have battled insomnia since i was a child, occasional depression, horrible "bathroom" issues, and most recently, constant back (spinal) pain. there is some history for you.

about 1.5 weeks after the whole TMJ issue, i started to have these awful knots in my back in the "common" fibro areas. i could feel them when i breathed and every masseuse cringed when they felt them. i got two massages within a week they were so bad. i got no relief.

then, one day about a week later, they subsided for the most part (thank god!)… but they were seeminly replaced with spinal pain! the pain shifts between my lower to mid to upper on a daily basis. my doctor has tried me on at least 12 medications since then, none work. my stomach does not tolerate medications well and i am either puking or no reaction to the meds. i get no relief from anything.

i have found that if i walk "too" long… like, an hour max… i start to cripple in pain. same if i sit too long.. yesterday i cleaned house for a long period of time (6 hours or so)… and once i was on the couch resting, i could not get up… it is the first time i couldnt get off the couch or from a resting position and i am scared..i have never had an injury nor any accidents. i sit at a desk 8 hours a day.

my question is this. my doctor has posed that i see a pain management specialist. i have had xrays that only showed spasms (this was when i had knots, not when the spinal pain started). i am scheduled for an mri to ensure there is no slipped disc or anything. the dr has brought up epidurals and spinal "blocks"…. i have never had either. the thought scares me like no other…

sorry so long, but i am so lost about all of this. i’d like to hear everyone’s thoughts about my symptoms and about the proposed treatment. i am open to everything. thank you so much.
fyi, they ARE referred to as trigger points. it seems they use both "trigger" and "tender" depending on what you read.

Is it better to sleep on your back or belly?




Lately I have been sleeping on my back and I have a good nights sleep. But when I wake up, my back hurts a lot. When I sleep on my stomach, I wake up frequently, but when I wake up in the morning my back feels perfectly fine. What’s the problem here? How do you think I should sleep?

Went to bed at 10ish last night only to awake at 12.. tossed and turned until about 3, finally i got up went upstairs and sat on the couch.. didnt go back to sleep until 7am- I had to call out of work today.. My back, neck, and shoulders seem to tense up and many thoughts run through my mind
