What sleeping position is recommended for bleeding and maintaining pregnancy in the early stages?

Patient's question:

I'm still in school, 21 years old. I recently just found out I'm pregnant. I'm a bit young, and I don't know what to do. Please ask: What sleeping position is recommended for maintaining a pregnancy in the early stages with bleeding?

Doctor's answer:

For pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy, they can adopt a free body position, which is generally what people commonly say—do whatever makes you comfortable. The main thing is not to control the abdomen, so it is usually recommended to lie on your back or side. The most unsuitable sleeping position is lying on your back, as it can cause pressure on the abdomen and lead to the fetus being choked by amniotic fluid. Finally, in daily life, it is important to maintain a good mood, as a positive attitude is very helpful for recovery from illness.
