I was having back pains last night so I tried sleeping in a new to me position, on my back. It felt exceptionally awkward but well balanced and helped me with my back for the night. It made me :ponder for a minute however, on the back is the generally accepted way of sleeping seen in most movies and shows (cinematography wise it seems the better position for a shot), but I’ll still be going back to my own ways once the back gets better. With that said, who follows which sleeping method? ---

I have a Sterns and Foster mattress which retails for a shit load of money. Have yet to find a bed better than mine. Pillow top FTW. I can fall a sleep in any position, but typically I sleep on my stomach. Some nights, though, it’s on my back. ---

Well I always end up on my right side. I think its because thats the side my kidney tranz is on, and I subconsciously feel I have to protect it or something. But when I was on dialysis and had an unsightly tube coming out of my abdomen, I was always sleeping on my back, not really by choice, lol, but I got used to it. But I havent ever slept on my stomach since. Oh and my mattress is a POS. ---

It also happens to be the only day a week when I wake up without using an alarm clock, which allowed me to evaluate my sleep after sleeping on the back, hence the thread. ---
