What is the best position to sleep in if you have bad circulation? I keep wakin!


Question:

What is the best position to sleep in if you have bad circulation? I keep waking up with my arms numb?

Especially my left one.. I am currently 7 weeks pregnant as well.


Answers:

Pregnant women should sleep on their left side because the heart hangs off of the left side of your vessels and this position allows maximal filling and pumping of the heart without it laying on top of your vena cava. Anyways this should help with circulation. i have the same problem with numb limbs, just be sure not to put pressure on the point were the arm enters the shoulder, that usually works for me, but if you move in the night then you never know, good luck
