I've slept on both sides comfortably. I'm an ambi-sleeper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62455 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 23:30:31 +0000 peachybee 62455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a right sider, but I can sleep on either. I just prefer to be furthest from the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62399 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 21:21:35 +0000 tequiero21 62399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>right now, i sleep on the left side. but i voted either because i don't really care which side i sleep. i think if we're against the wall, hubby likes to be on the "outside".... if not, i guess i'm usually on the left. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62273 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 17:07:34 +0000 mediagirl 62273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the left side. I like to sleep on my belly and turn my face so it's on the right cheek. I sleep on the left side at home, at my parents and when I'm on work travel w/o dh!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62214 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:27:11 +0000 pastemoo 62214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted right side, but I should have voted "other." I prefer to sleep on the window side/the side farthest from the door. Usually those are the same side. So in our last place I had the left side, and here I have the right side, and at hotels we switch.</p> <p>Also... I don't sleep on my sides at all. so that doesn't affect who gets which side of the bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62212 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:26:32 +0000 Boogs 62212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a left-sider. On the nights when DH doesn't sleep at home, I stick to my side, or the middle, but never migrate over to his side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62193 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:40:49 +0000 sorrycharlie 62193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always slept on the right side. Just recently read that I'm supposed to be getting used to sleeping on my left side for when I'm further along, so I've been trying to! But I always wake up on my back or on my right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62185 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:16:24 +0000 lemondrop 62185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a left sider, we haven't really had a reason for it, I just naturally gravitate there. If my husband has his choice, he will sprawl right in the middle. He loves it when I get up and he can take over the whole bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62155 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 12:56:24 +0000 sslm 62155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep on the right, but could sleep either side. When we visit my parents I sleep on the left for some reason... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62144 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 12:30:24 +0000 BSB 62144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a left sider. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62142 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 12:21:21 +0000 carrieknitscake 62142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep on the left side which is closest to the bathroom. We have an ensuite bathroom, so it's only a few steps away from the bed. I've always slept on the side that's close to the bathroom even before I dated my husband. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62139 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 11:51:21 +0000 ALittleP 62139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MegWag: Oh, good to know! I'm at the beginning of my 2nd tri, so I have some time :) Thanks!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62136 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 11:43:21 +0000 MegWag 62136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ALittleP: Just FYI, you don't have to switch to your left side as soon as you get pregnant. Generally, it doesn't really matter until later in your 2nd trimester or even your 3rd- depending on how big you get. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62134 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 11:41:50 +0000 ALittleP 62134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a right sider at the moment but we might need to switch soon as I'm pregnant and should be sleeping on my left side. And, I like to sleep with my face out - is that strange?</p> <p>If DH is away or I'm traveling and alone, I like to sleep in the middle of the bed :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62117 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 10:20:50 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 62117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep on the right side and hubby sleeps on the left. It stays the same everywhere we go. When he has been on night shift for a while I'll sleep on his pillow because I miss him. When I do I lay diagonally across the bed and not completely on the left side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62116 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 10:19:13 +0000 cyndistar3 62116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep on the right side because the left side is the side closest to the door and my husband doesn't want me on that side just in case someone were to break in lol... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62113 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 09:31:13 +0000 MsMini 62113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In our house, I sleep on the right, but in general, I feel more comfortable sleeping on the "window" side of the bed (the one closest to the windows) IDK why. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62112 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 09:10:51 +0000 mrsguinness 62112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep on my left side, my husband has to sleep closest to the door </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62110 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 09:00:37 +0000 owlmom 62110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a right-sider my whole life, until I got pregnant. Then I had to switch to the left because I slept with a snoogle pillow on my right side. In order to roll my whale-like self out of bed to pee in the middle of the night, I had to be on the opposite side of the great-wall-of-pillow. We haven't switched back yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62108 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 08:57:51 +0000 Rubies 62108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the left side and even if hubs isn't home, I stay on the left side. He, on the other hand, crosses the "line" and at some point in the night, I will find his head on MY pillow - so it's like the both of us on are the left side! Drives me bonkers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62103 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 08:46:38 +0000 mynoahbear 62103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a left sider, but that's because it has the clearest path to the bathroom-I tend to bump into things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62101 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 08:34:55 +0000 heffalump 62101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can sleep anywhere, but hubby is a right sider so I'm always on the left. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62075 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 07:54:38 +0000 chopsuey 62075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can sleep on either side. I think I'm currently on the right side of the bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62068 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 07:41:04 +0000 Andrea 62068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It used to be the left but we switched when I became pregnant since the other side was closer to the bathroom. We never did switch back. We take our sides seriously, too. If the other person isn't there we would still only sleep on our side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62067 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 07:38:47 +0000 MegWag 62067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a left-sider! It's stayed that way on two different continents and in many hotels. I can't say I do it intentionally, but it always ends up that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-side-of-the-bed-do-you-sleep-on#post-62065 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 07:27:07 +0000 mrbee 62065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always sleep on the right side of the bed (if you're lying in the bed, I'm on the right side). Bee is a left-sider, so it all worked out.</p> <p>I guess I take sides seriously, because Bee has been sleeping in Olive's nursery lately and I'm still only sleeping on my half of the bed!</p> <p>Do you have a side of the bed? What about your SO? </p>
