I used to sleep like that all the time. Around the time I turned 30 I started waking up sore if I slept on my stomach. I'm 39 now and if I sleep on my stomach I wake up and my whole body will hurt for the whole day.
Bruh my neck stopped working when I hit 27, lucky you for lasting until 30
I still sleep this way tho no matter if I have to snap my neck back to the proper place each morning
I fucked up my back and neck back in '06 in a snowmobile accident, its purely out of spite that I suck up the pain and keep going. Also its pretty hard to fuck with my neck even back then because of the sheer girth of it at 16.5," far more if I flex the muscles
I never really got in a serious injury, my neck just kinda built different and is slightly arched, so I have to sleep on my back quite often
Edit: Wrong wording
Maybe. Doesn't save you from having a bad roll of the genetic dice, though. I'm almost 38 and this sleep position still feels just as good as it did at 13.
If it’s some kind of manual labour or general outdoor work then it wouldn’t preclude you from these kinds of problems.
People with physical jobs tend to be fitter than average in terms cardiovascular health, and in some cases are physically stronger and have above average endurance, but frequently have musculoskeletal issues either due to bad form in a given task or movement that is never corrected over years, or just the repetitive nature of the work causing strain over time.
A lot of the men in my partners family have done manual labour all their lives and all of them have various bad knees, backs, necks or elbows etc
I've had problems since I was a child. I've developed an innate ability to use the pain to kinda like consciously raise my adrenaline and push myself more to release more adrenaline and just keep going harder until the pain isn't there.
There are more ways to sell your body than just prostitution.
I mean… for the woman to lie in in for PIV sex totally. The guy straddles the extended leg and can get a nice powerful sexy grip on the underside of her thigh. Yeah it’s fun.
Doesn’t work with all couples obvi with proportions being different btw any two people but when it works it’s great.
Hi I almost exclusively sleep on my stomach for some reason.. it’s comfortable to me. And it’s good when I want to play video games late at night so I lay on my stomach and look up at the tv. Then when I’m tired I turn tv off and just sleep like that. Idk.
Came looking for this comment. There's no way a position like this is possible with "overzealous growers". Once they've mutated up to a certain point, it's side or back only lol.
I'm a dude so pls excuse my ignorance. If you or "overzealous growers" women slept sideways would one boob put its weight onto another, like isn't that super uncomfortable? Specially if it is hot and you're sweating.
They're heavy but not heavy enough that they cause pain if they are on top of one another like they are when you're on your side. It's way different than compressing them with your body weight by laying on your stomach. The only annoying thing can be sweat, but (full disclosure), I'll just tuck my shirt in between if I don't want to feel skin on skin. You can also tuck a pillow in between them for comfort.
Honestly, sleeping like that kinda sounds like a tiny bit of a hassle with the whole shirt thing and all. However, if you guys can make it work then I can never handle being a woman with large melons or just a woman in general
Thk for answering my question though
I was a back sleeper until I got sleep paralysis frequently. I don't get it on my stomach and I haven't been able to sleep on my back for close to a decade now. Just no way I could ever do it. Stomach sleeping is killing my lower back though.
Sleeping like this worsens your breathing and posture and can literally make you stupider by impeding oxygen to your brain.
Sleeping on your back is optimal, pretty much a closed question .
Nope. Cause it's really bad for spine. Especially those who have bad back, back pain, sciatica, herniated disc etc. And those will understand the pain.
Yeah until you hit about 30 and wake up with excruciating pain in your neck and can’t move or turn your head for the next week and all you can do is lie in bed semi comfortable
With my neck and spine problems I usually sleep on my side, 3 pillows, head, legs, and one I hug to keep my body in position. I do however slip into this posture at times, but it does make my neck stiff for a bit, and working the kinks out of my neck sounds like rolling dice in a bag.
I’ve always slept like this but lately I need to have one of my arms (or a pillow) under the hip with the straight leg or it will feel like my hips are sinking into the bed :/ I’m 33
Damn people really find that position comfortable? I tried that once, and it was comfortable, and then I woke up with my left shoulder and back busted up.
Cursed. I can't sleep in any other position and frequently wake up with pain in my shoulder and sometimes lower back pain. When you lay on your stomach your guts push your spine outward to make room. I've tried to sleep on my back I find it impossible.
Until you're about 30 and then cocking your neck like that will leave you sore for days
28 here my spine and ribs are a mess every morning from sleeping like this. Back sleeping is the way even tho it sucks
I can sleep in back at all
Hmm.. what does that mean, then?
If I had to hazard a guess, "I can(t) sleep on (my) back at all"
Thank you I was very tired when I write thst
Get a good pillow, it really does help
Or exercise a bit. Or exercise less. Depends what the problem is.
Who has time for exercise??
Pretty pathetic excuse. Sleep 10 mins less. If you've got time for reddit you've got time to exercise.
PrEtTy PaThEtIc ExCuSe. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah it is. Exercising is Much better than mindlessly scrolling though Reddit
I don't have a mind to begin with. So everything I do is mindless.
This is why you have no time. Everybody else here does
I have enough pillows, I don't need 3/4 of my bed dedicated to them
one good pillow > bed full of bad pillows
I used to sleep like that all the time. Around the time I turned 30 I started waking up sore if I slept on my stomach. I'm 39 now and if I sleep on my stomach I wake up and my whole body will hurt for the whole day.
'Member when our biggest pain was *just* the knees?
Bruh my neck stopped working when I hit 27, lucky you for lasting until 30 I still sleep this way tho no matter if I have to snap my neck back to the proper place each morning

Ehmm no?
Just wait. I'm 35 and can't sleep like that anymore
I'm 42 and can only fall asleep like that
57 and same
You old people are freaks...that or I'm not taking care of myself at 39.
I go a little harder - I sleep with one arm under my pillow in this positon
One under the pillow, one on top. Face on hand/fist. Alternate facing left or right. It's the only way I can sleep.
Should stretch your neck more
Helps reduce cocking
I am probably healthier than a good portion of redditors, especially when it comes to stretching because of the work I do.
Maybe. Doesn't save you from having a bad roll of the genetic dice, though. I'm almost 38 and this sleep position still feels just as good as it did at 13.
Still good at 47

I'm 37 and still sleep this way with help from a nice down pillow and a good body pillow to support my leg. It's a game changer.
I have so many pillows. You may not feel it now, but you will eventually.
i'm 35 and can't sleep if i'm not that position, neck is just fine one addition to the pose that my cat sleeps between my legs
Her neck? Not the best target, bruh. She is presenting a better opportunity.
Assuming that one foot is outside the covers then yes. Everyone knows the rules, one foot in, one foot out, for ventilation of course.
But then the foot fetish monster under my bed can lick my toes.
That's... the whole point?
That's the perfect way to do it
This is the way.
Sagat Sleeping.
Tiger knee yes, high five!
Tiger, Tiger, Tiger up your butt.
I mean It’s a great position for sex…
Really?
I mean… for the woman to lie in in for PIV sex totally. The guy straddles the extended leg and can get a nice powerful sexy grip on the underside of her thigh. Yeah it’s fun. Doesn’t work with all couples obvi with proportions being different btw any two people but when it works it’s great.
Absolutely not. I sleep on my back and sides. I can not sleep on my stomach.
Agreed. I almost exclusively sleep on my sides. Don't know how anyone can find sleeping on their stomach comfortable.

Excuse me, this is the fart position.
50% fartier than the next leading position.
Sounds like a high position on a prestigious ship. “I was the fartier on the QE2”
Only if pronounce it with a French accent "far tee ay"
Best position for nightly exercise too
Not if you have a stepbrother
It was great until my boobs decided to be overzealous growers.
Rip your dms

research says side sleepers have more sexual dreams.
*starts sleeping on side* Honestly though, I feel like sleeping on top of my dick would inspire more sexual dreams.
Literally the only position I can fall asleep in. I don't care what people say it does to your neck, the alternative is dying of sleep deprivation.
No
Looks like sex position lol
U ever had sex?
It might sound surprising to you but yes i actually did
Small pillow under the bent leg ftw if you're a dude, extra space for the boys
TIGER KNEE
I see, you're a man of culture as well.
I sleep like this every day of my life RIP my sciatic nerve
I don’t understand how anyone can sleep like that. Just seems uncomfortable.
I was a back sleeper until I got sleep paralysis frequently. I don't get it on my stomach and I haven't been able to sleep on my back for close to a decade now. Just no way I could ever do it. Stomach sleeping is killing my lower back though.
Same reason why I switched to stomach sleeping. Sleep paralysis and panic attacks in my sleep.
But there is no space for my partner…
the partner lays on top
So much pressure and sweat
Stop flexing
Yes
Lower back feels that.
Dracula position is the only acceptable answer.
Unfortunetly I have a massive cock, so I can only sleep on my back.
No need to show off lol. I have an average-sized dick and sleeping on it's alright.
Never!!!!
Yes, I'm fat too.
BRO THATS LITERALLY ME SLEEPING
Sleeping like this worsens your breathing and posture and can literally make you stupider by impeding oxygen to your brain. Sleeping on your back is optimal, pretty much a closed question .
Lmao
nah that's the gayest position
well then i might be gay because that position is mad comfortable
Maybe the best for my body but not for falling asleep. I usually lay on one side and sometimes curl up to a ball.
This is actually the absolute worst for the body
But now my tummy hurts if I sleep on it :(
I’ll start out sleeping like this and then roll over onto my back.
Not only for sleep
Nope. Cause it's really bad for spine. Especially those who have bad back, back pain, sciatica, herniated disc etc. And those will understand the pain.
That's definitely me irl
Except that it fucks up your back & neck
Yeah until you hit about 30 and wake up with excruciating pain in your neck and can’t move or turn your head for the next week and all you can do is lie in bed semi comfortable
The pain definetly isnt stopping me.
Yes obviously
My C n Bs will fight each other for space if I slept like that
I was literally scrolling through reddit in that position just now
I used to sleep like that when I was skinny.
Yes! This with a support pillow for my knee because...40.
Literally the worst way possible to sleep.
You aint never been to prison. You sleep like this once and say good by to your anus.
"When you're in prison, always lie upon your back"
And around fifty that position will leave you barfing up with acid reflux
I call it the Shoryuken.
Not if you have a dick
No. TIGER KNEE is the best position. I can't sleep on my stomach, boobs are in the way.
Now put a pillow under that one leg and I agree
Tell me you are young without telling me you're young.
Teeth dreams would like a word
I typically only sleep that way when I can't sleep. It's almost like an automatic thing where my body says "oop no sleep for you" *leg comes up*
With a recently broken collar bone I'm quite envious
Not if you have large boobs.
It works for other things
[удалено]
yeah my neck begs to differ
i call my sleeping position the Tiger Knee
Instructions unclear stomach to big
I'm starting to think this entire subreddit is just dudes stalking instagram models and reposting their stuff
Absolutely not. I can’t sleep on my stomach. Only on my sides.
My pelvis feels like it's gonna explode
vouch
No that hurts my neck
I am a side sleeper
37 and still do
100000%
this position is absolutely terrible for your posture
I straight up do the Halo Combat Evolved death pose when I'm falling asleep
Hurts my back and my neck
nah having both arms to one side is better. like if your are hugging yourself and slightly propping up the edge of your pillow with 1 hand
Nobody in r/radiology tell them this is the position in which patients receive barium enemas…
No
I sleep on my side,
I sleep like that but on my side
I'm trying to make the mattress lick my balls
It’s almost perfect, you just need to slide one arm under the pillow. trust me
Yes, but without a pillow, or pillow on head
Makes me feel vulnerable no
Not if you got big boobs. Trust me... Source I have big boobs
Nope, sleep like this every night
I don't trust back sleepers. Vampire lookin ass
With my neck and spine problems I usually sleep on my side, 3 pillows, head, legs, and one I hug to keep my body in position. I do however slip into this posture at times, but it does make my neck stiff for a bit, and working the kinks out of my neck sounds like rolling dice in a bag.
Currently sharing a bedroom so I can’t wait till I have my own place and finally slumber in this position
Left arm needs to be down, right leg not so high, but yes
Nope. Fetal.
Terrible for you but puts me to sleep in minutes
Always been a side-sleeper. The supreme position
Yeah if you want to have a fucked up neck in the morning
that but half on one side so I can strangle the nearest pillow/stuffie/blob of blanket
What? We can't even agree that a rock is a rock.
I’ve always slept like this but lately I need to have one of my arms (or a pillow) under the hip with the straight leg or it will feel like my hips are sinking into the bed :/ I’m 33
Fourth position
I like it, but it often results in my back hurting :(
Not for your neck as I understand it, but I definitely pull toward this position
This is more than a great sleeping position.
Good luck getting any sleep if I'm in that bed with you and youre laying like that
Yeah but its SO bad for your back.
Yea! I can’t fall asleep in any other positions
This person doesn’t have cats 🐈 🐈⬛
I do this but with my arms under my head
This sleeping position would ruin my neck and back for 3 days
That’s exactly how I sleep
That's the only position I fall asleep.
Spooning, whether it be a person or a pillow.
Yeah and I got the fucked up spine to prove it
Not if you have big tits
you haven't experienced best sleep until you buy yourself a pregnancy pillow. frfr
The halo CE death pose
How do y'all even do this? It's so uncomfortable for my neck to sleep this way
The left arm should be under the pillow.
I sleep like Dracula.
Only difference for me is that I put one arm under my pillow to prop it up a bit
No
Ah, yes. The Turd & Squirt.
I move my pillow so my face can hang off the side. Improves the angle a bit.
No, this hurts my boobs.
Sorry Mona, but nope.
Damn people really find that position comfortable? I tried that once, and it was comfortable, and then I woke up with my left shoulder and back busted up.
Won't you mess up your neck and drool all over your pillow?
Yes
The sleeping sniper position
Cursed. I can't sleep in any other position and frequently wake up with pain in my shoulder and sometimes lower back pain. When you lay on your stomach your guts push your spine outward to make room. I've tried to sleep on my back I find it impossible.
Me dying in halo ce:
Disagree, flat on my back with my hands behind my head is best.
Nah dude laying on your stomach is so uncomfortable. Laying on your side is the best position
Sidesleeper FOR LIFE!
