Before I fall asleep I often need more time. Someone can fall asleep in a short time. For me it is a little difficult. So I often lie on my side. If I change the sleeping position I can only lie on the bed and count the number. When I can not fall into sleep I try to different position. I often spend a long time on it. Sometime I give up the pillow and make me feel comfortable, then I can fall asleep quickly. How about young ? What kind of sleep position do you like?

Hi, kevinll. I usually will sleep on my stomach. When I am not supposed to because of my back. I usually will lay down on my left side and I will wake up on my stomach. This is the most comfortable position for me.

I have problems of sleeping if I do not lie on my stomack, or on the right side. And most of the mornings I wake up the same position as I fell a sleep. I remember when I woke up at hospital after a long surgury, I said to the nurses I wanted her to help me move over to my stomack so I could go back to sleep. I seldome sleep on my back, it is uncomfortble. Of course there was a problem since I had the surgury in my left leg I could not move so I had to ajust to it for the moment. While I was recovering, the nurses had to help me every night so I could lay on my side. I did get someting to sleep on though becouse fo the pain, but it was the lucky night when I could move my self when I went to bed. Happy new year

Hi Kevinll..I always have a hard time getting to sleep takes me a couple hours and I move around quite a bit but eventually I seem to end up sleeping on my side one had tucked under a pillow so that would most likely be mine.

I need to be laying on my side with my legs bent to be able to fall asleep.I could never fall asleep on my back,that feels so uncomfortable to me to try falling asleep on my back.

Left side for me too. It's not because I "like it" but if I lay on my back I wake myself up with dripping down the back of my throat. There's something ailing my right hip, so the right side is out. However, this holds true for only when I start to sleep. For some odd reason about 2 or 3 hours later I can be on my back. Occassionally I even wind up on my right side. If you can't sleep, try worshiping God and prayer. Works for me.

i will start on my stomach with my hand under the pillow and my head on it. by morning i find myself sleeping on left side. I do not know if this is crazy but when i am not able to sleep, i find myself forming an imaginery dream which soothes me to sleep.
