Womensstuff is a trans+ inclusive women’s only community.

Not sure where to ask this but I’ve been enjoying my transition a lot, even with the period included (not the nicest but still affirming).

That said, I’ve noticed a mild issue: sleeping position. My boobs are now getting in the way of sleeping fully on the side.

Currently, the “solution” I’ve gotten is to basically sleep in a fetal position halfway inbetween that of “on stomach” and “on side”, with my arms in an L shape under the ergonomic head pillow. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than sleeping normally on the side, which sadly is a little difficult now.

I figured I’d ask other gals about here. Do you lot have any tips on this?

And do clothes help differently? Like I see sleeping skirts and pajamas, but I heat up easily and I’m not so quite sure if they’d help.

    So I’m a B cup and often sleep fully on the side. I can see how it might be uncomfortable at first, but of course it doesn’t bother me because I’m used to it. Maybe C+ cup ladies might feel differently about sleeping on the side.😅

    One suggestion is to try and train yourself to fall asleep on your back. Wedge some pillows around you so you don’t roll over in your sleep.

    I sleep in a shirt and shorts during hot months and sweatshirt/sweatpants during winter. I get cold easily lol. There’s nothing wrong with sleeping naked or in just your underwear though!

      I have g cups and sleep on my side, or my stomach. I tend to get annoyed at the way my chest arranges itself if I sleep on my back lol
