No doubt, sleep is beneficial to human health. It not only rests the body, it also refreshes and keep us going.

Getting a good night's sleep can make us feel ready to take on the world any day.

A study led by a researcher from the University of Michigan School of Public Health and published in the International Journal of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, reveals that pregnant women who slept on their back (supine sleep) increased the risks of low birth weight by a factor of five, and that it was the low birth weight that explained the high risk for stillbirth in the affected women.

This suggests that there's a link between maternal supine sleep (lying with the face up) and stillbirth
