Re: Poll: In Which Position Do You Sleep?
So, is this a trick question, or a vocabulary test?! I don't recognize a couple of these. My answer (I marked Multiple) is that start off on one side and seem to bounce around most all night. When I'm aware, I go back to sleep on the other side. Generally stay on the east side of the bed. (That tells Ya a lot, don't it? )
When napping, I prefer to sleep prone face down, but I find that challenging with a mask on, even the SleepWeaver softy.

I retrained from prone back to fetal.
It took me about six months.

When in doubt, open the case. Remember: If you can't open it, you don't own it!

Re: Poll: In Which Position Do You Sleep?
I picked soldier because that's how I sleep 99% of the time. Luckily my OSA is not positional and back sleeping does not cause me any problems at all. Weird thing is that before I got diagnosed and put on the hose I almost always slept on my sides, going from left to right and back again all night long, snoring uncontrollably with loud gasps for air (according to my wife). Guess it was my bodies way of trying to survive each night without the wonderful PAP treatment I am now blessed to have and use

I selected multiple, but I'm mostly a side-sleeper.

Re: Poll: In Which Position Do You Sleep?
I picked yearner, but it is more like a cross between yearner and fetal.

Who would have thought it would be this challenging to sleep and breathe at the same time?
