How do you sleep?

I'm going to bed, and in honor of that figured I would start a random thread. So when you go to bed how do you sleep? Right side, left side, back, stomach, move around, fetal position, etc....

You're going to bed? But it's 9:50AM! ;)

I generally lie on one side for a bit, then the other side. Beyond that, I don't really know - I fall asleep much quicker these days, so don't get long to analyse it.

Back mostly, though fetal is useful when it gets cold...

I prefer to sleep cuddled up to someone, but that's not always an option. :p

Generally on my back, but cuuddled up if I've got someone to cuddle up to. :D
Generally I'm not great at sleeping on my side, though, so sometimes I'll hold their hand and go to sleep like that.:p

This poll reminds me of comic I saw once, it had all these poor people living in disparity, staving and filthy. A man of great wealth drives past in his shiny convertible covered with gold jewellery, one of the Beggars ask him, “How do you sleep at night?” to which he replies, “on a king size bed between satin sheets next to a woman who's beauty would make you weep”.

why it reminds me of this i'm not sure.

Usually on my stomach, with my head facing to the side.

I rotate, though I can hardly ever remember the position I woke up in.

Front, back, left, right...doesn't usually bother me. But I'd say about 80% of the time I fall asleep on my front or facing the wall.

Mostly facing the left or on my back.

Tossing and turning in bed. But I have fallen asleep sitting at a desk, too.

When tired enough, I sleep. Not good and resting, but I do, even if restless.

And it depends whether I can remember the dreams/nightmares. Which are back... (Damn!)

I usually fall asleep lying on my right side, though.

Varies, though I move around quite a bit in one instance I woke up facing the opposite end of the bed from how I went to sleep.

Sorry, I was playing a little prank, that's all. :p

I fall asleep cuddled up to my boyfriend, but I do change positions a lot over the course of the night. If my boyfriend's not around I fall asleep on my back.

cuddled up to hubby, however the strange thing is that we always turn over at the same time, even in the middle of the night when we are both asleep (we have witnesses to that)

You have people watching you sleep? That's hot.

On my side, cuddled up to my boyfriend (if I have the option), naked. Best way to sleep.

I usually sleep on my back or on my side but I wake up on my stomach and once on the floor and the other time without my clothes on...still don't know how that happened:confused:

i sleep all over the fucking place, largely because being in bed is too hot and i'm fussy and take ages to get comfortable (and then will get an itch or something :mad: )

so i sleep pretty badly, too :(

The only thing you did was yesterday,
And since your gone you're just another day,
How do you sleep?
Ah how do you sleep at night?

I've never had that option, so I wouldn't know.:(

On your back, eh?;)

Usually on one of my sides surrounded by pillows, with a pillow between my knees, and occasionally on my stomach. Only time I ever sleep on my back is when I am physically tired and I fall asleep accidentaly when I'm still on my back watching tv or reading. Those sleeps are the best, but rare.

Or passed out on the couch. Either one.

Generally on my side. Unfortunately, I kick, punch and scream in my sleep. Up until I got divorced, this wasn't a problem, 'cause the only two people I'd ever slept with on a regular basis slept like rocks. The first boyfriend after my divorce was a light sleeper, and I scared the crap out of him regularly.

I've done that, but it was a rifl and there weren't any sandbags.

ROFL! I sleep so heavily, it nearly takes my little brother slamming the door against my head to wake me up.:D
Yes, I sleep on the floor... <.< What? Some people do...don't they? >.>

I once woke up after a night of drunken debauchery with my clothes in a crumpled heap in the bathtub.

Trouble is, I was still in them.
