worse dreams or more nightmaric dreams?

and I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Is that common with kids sometimes though, like because things
can scare them.

study found that left side sleepers experienced significantly more nightmares.
Right side sleepers had calm and comforting dreams right side.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Interesting. It has to do with the blood flow to
your heart, probably because when I was pregnant they told
me to sleep on my left side because that would
be better like flow for my heart and the baby
and all that stuff. Or yes, left side, and so
the right side.

asleep being.

Side's not bad. But when I really want to get
that like ooy gooy, fall asleep feeling, it's my stomach.

Speaker 1 (01:57):

very flat pillow. Well, we just woke up, so that's
a long time from now.
