Babies are pretty tough little creatures. They are well protected in mom's safe haven. Best advice, find position that is most comfy for YOU, and go to sleep, baby will be fine. If you have a recliner, many moms find this comfy. i personally found pillows to help, 2 for head, and 1 between legs, kinda tucked longways up under big belly. The bottom line, get comfy, baby will be fine.
