Sometimes side; sometimes stomach. I rarely get sleep paralysis but it happens more often when I'm laying on my back and that's when it's also the scariest. So yeah, overall I find it more comfy to be on my side or stomach with a big poofy blanket.

Depends on what happens to feel comfortable.

3 Years ago I slept on side, now I sleep on my back.
That being said, I can fall asleep ANYWHERE if I am tired enough(think a desk, dresser, little couches, etc). =)

I used to sleep on my stomach, sometimes on my side, to avoid sleep paralysis after a particularly bad attack of it. Now there is something wrong with my neck. It hurts constantly and I can't get it checked out. It forces me to sleep on my back. That's the only remotely comfortable position.

I sleep either on my side or on my back. I've never been comfortable sleeping on my stomach for some reason.

I generally sleep on my side but I sleep on my back too. I got sleep paralysis for my first time sometime over a year ago. I always thought it would be terrifying but I knew what it was when it happened and just waited for my body to be able to move. I guess it helped that I listen to coasttocoastam sometimes and heard about it a number of times already so I knew what it was.

I sleep on my back or side. I feel very uncomfortable, sleeping on my stomach.

I sleep on my stomach.
I have to have a pillow lengthways under me (from my chin to my waist) or my back gets sore.
I've always slept on my stomach, even when I was a baby.

On my side, specially because I have an old fashioned mattress and not one of those fancy thera peutic soft ones that is confortable for any sleeping position.

When I was little (up to about 13 yo), I used to sleep on my stomach. I can't do that anymore, if I try, my mind starts racing.

about 2 years ago I used to get sleep cramps... go home sleep paralysis, this takes the cake as being the nastiest, most painful thing ever. I usually woke up with a cramp in my right leg. A few times I got a cramp twice in a row which hurts about 100x more :(

The cramps stopped once I got a new bed for some reason... still beats me why they stopped :?:

I usually get sleep paralysis when i oversleep, which is kind of neat... usually happens 5 or 10 minutes after the alarm clock goes off... :D

Mostly on my side. Stomach is like a rare super-comfy thing to do for me. It's not always comfy for some reason, but when it is, it's like.. omg. Best thing ever. Usually I sleep on my stomach when I'm camping.

I usually sleep quite soundly, and mostly on my left side. But later, I tend to sleep on my right side so I can look at my clock.

On my side, I've never been able to sleep on my back/stomach.
