1. On my side; one arm under the pillows and the other
wrapped round the pillows!!
2. On my back usually, cant sleep on my stomach
if I tried.

Hope this helps.

1. on my back
2. on my back

edited to add that I make my bed a WAR ZONE somehow I wake up the same way but it's not until after I'm pretty sure I've wrestled a bear in my sleep.

1. On my back or side
2. On my side, with knees tucked up or tummy with arms around pillow

1. tummy or right hand side
2. right hand side, curled up really small

1. Stomach or side.
2. Stomach.

#2 used to be side, but because of my H's parasomnia, stomach became "safest."

1. right side
2. stomach

1. Love to sleep on my stomach but after some problems, I shouldn't anymore.

2. Right side with a warm little puppy curled up next to me.

Thanks for all your answers!

Seems for the majority of us it is between the stomach and the foetal position. When I asked the question, and based on the group of people I was asking, (clearly all of us on the forum have emotional setbacks and for good reason), I had the assumption that a lot of us would sleep on our stomachs and my reason for this is that I have always thought that a sleeping position is more than just a sleeping position. I have always thought that sleeping on ones stomach somehow represents a means of protecting ones vulnerability. So for people who feel insecure, or people who are “closed up”, I would think they would sleep on their stomach a good majority of the time. Of course these were just my own personal thoughts with no research done as such, apart from asking a few of my family members and friends here and there over the years. I then looked it up on the internet, but have yet to find any conclusive evidence one way or another. I have included 2 links for you to brows if you wish. It seems the research done is on a rather superficial level, but I’m not too concerned because afterall I have placed this under “coffee talk”

(((Draggers))) you know how you slept when you were little….I still sometimes sleep like that lol

(((Avoidant))) you not sleeping on your stomach made me smile

(((Cat))) your WAR ZONE might explain why you lie on your back – I mean you can’t fight the enemy when you are on your tummy right?

(((Becca))) well a warm puppy would work for me too if I was upset.

(((Iris))) & (((Starfish))) I think being curled up really small is almost like sleeping on a person’s stomach in that you are still effectively covering up the stomach if you know what I mean.

Anyway thanks to everyone who participated!

The online interpretations seem to fit me well, at least in my subjective experience of myself.

I dunno what the war zone explains (one of the sites said lots of moving is wanting to change oneself for the better). But I do know it makes my bed annoying to make in the morning with the blankets all up in a pretzel. Sometimes I wake up with my head at the foot end of the bed. Hee.

Thanks for the links.
