My idea position is falling asleep with a leg over my Mister..but just snuggled near works.
We usually fall asleep with me in his 'nook'. His area between the left side of his chest and directly under his arm with my hands on his chest. I LOVE MY 'NOOK'
Right side and left side. We always have. I face away because I snore.
As the baby moves out of our bed we have gotten back to cuddling more. We always seemed to try and maintain some sort of contact. It's great to see how much we still enjoy and express the little things. We are crazy in love
Indeed, sleeping together has been challenging. But there are early mornings where on of us awakens and snuggles up, at least a small consolation...
It's mixed. We either pass out in not the most comfortable position or we are facing out to the edge of the bed. We need a new bed, perhaps a King size. Take that for a joint birthday gift.
Yeah a new bed would be nice, a new car, a new sofa, new kitchen island, haha... the list goes on and on babe.

Lately we've been falling asleep on separate sides of the beds but sometimes we fall asleep spooning! That is my favorite way but a lot of times we get too hot or fidgety for it
on each other, and i love it this way. its the closeness. its hard when i dont get to see him all day, and then we can cuddle. still love it after 4 years
On our sides. Usually with him holding me in his arms. I LOVE it. It makes me feel loved & safe.
me on my side b/c sometimes I breathe too loud or snore. her on her side too.
I'm ok with it if it helps her sleep better.

We usually fall asleep not spooning, but I usually try to put my arm around her. Sometimes it's too hot in our bedroom, but when it's not I prefer spooning. I love to hold her in my arms, it's comforting and usually turns me on.
Unfortunately we sleep back to back on each of our sides facing out... but we seem to find our way towards each other in the early a.m. Neither sleeps well in the cuddle fest though.
Right now... Separate beds/house and I don't like it. Im not sleeping well, lots of waking up trying to figure out where I am and searching the bed for you. When we were at home we usually slept with you facing away and me on my back. I miss when we used to cuddle and fall asleep. :(
We usually cuddle for a while until we start getting really drowsy, then we move to our own sides of the bed for actual sleeping. I like it because the cuddling helps relax me (I often suffer from insomnia, so it makes a big difference), but I don't like cuddling during sleep because then when one person moves it kinda wakes the other person up and makes for a crappy night's sleep. Occasionally we accidentally fall asleep holding hands like sea otters and I think that's adorable. :)
We end up sleeping back to back. I feel sad abou this sometimes, like we aren't connecting but really it is the only way we can actually fall asleep.
