Is it unsafe to sleep a certain way?
Is it OK to sleep on your tummy with your arms above your head? My sister says it slows down your breathing.
You can rest easy, says Dr. Jodi Mindell, author, Take Charge of Your Child’s Sleep: The All-In-One Resource for Solving Sleep Problems in Kids and Teens. “It is absolutely safe to sleep on your stomach with your arms over your head,” she says. “Everybody sleep in different positions, and you should sleep in the position you find most comfortable. Overall, there is really no sleep position that is dangerous.” Sweet dreams!
