How do you sleep?
Do you do any of these sleep positions? I think there are some that they didn’t cover, like the flamingo (just picture how a flamingo stands and that’s the sleeping position), the horizontal (pretty straightforward) and the spooner (obvious again).
What are you? I’m either the starfish or the feotus.

Foetus here. nothin’ fancy for me.
@OliverYoung, well, according to the article, “those who curl up in the foetus position are described as tough on the outside but sensitive at heart.”
@troubleinharlem
Uh .. I guess that’s pretty close. Though actually quite hard to call. Am I tough on the outside? hmmm…...
I’m between the yearner the freefaller & the starfish, well everything but the log in actual fact, I can’t sleep in that position , it just feels awkward to me…. :-/
hmmm apparently I’m a log. That’s closest to how I sleep, although when my arthritis is acting up I also will have a pillow between my knees/ankles to ease the pain in my joints which will be screaming at me. I’ve said before, this getting old stuff is just not what it’s cracked up to be :-/
Since I was a kid I’ve been a flamingo sleeper (on my back) but when coupled then I’m a spooner, the outside spoon since I’m little and get thrashy if I’m the one spooned.
You don’t have any positions that show a car steering wheel or a desk, so I can’t really answer.
I did once take a pair of old safety glasses and draw a pair of ‘eyes wide open’ on them. I used to call them my go-to-meeting glasses, because (if you get over how crudely the eyes were drawn) I could sleep behind them with no one the wiser – at least until I start drooling or snoring.
Hahahaha! I’m such a John Lennon fan, the first thing I thought when I saw your question was this, @troubleinharlem!
There’s not one for “kitten”? I’m almost a little ball. I guess that’s extreme foetus, then.
I sleep like a log but never long enough. :(
I’m between the foetus and the yearner. I sleep with my arms tucked up tight (lower hand under my head, always) but my legs straighter.
I probably assume all of them at some point during my troubled night’s sleep.
Seeing fetus spelled as foetus always cracks me up for some reason.
I don’t see an option for “subconsciously and furiously dry humping a body pillow for the entire night” on there, so I’ll just go with “the log.”
Foetus.
FreeFaller – No. Sleeping on the funyuns is too uncomfortable for me.
At some point I can relate to all the positions even @ragingloli #7. Freefaller is my favorite;-)
I’m a Starfish and my wife is a Freefaller.
I guess we’re both sides of the same coin.
I am a Freefaller all the way. I cannot sleep if I am not in this position. It really hurts my neck in the long run. What does it all mean???
I guess I’m a fetus, a freefaller, and a flamingo. I used to sleep on my back with my knees up, but I don’t do that anymore. Much. :p
I toss and turn, every which way.
Soldier or starfish when trying to fall asleep, fetus after falling asleep.
I’m a lumberjack and I’m okay…
I’m freefaller most of the time, but also yearner, foetus, and starfish during the summer.
@WasCy I wondered what that certain woodsy smell you had about you was.
I sleep in the foetus, the yearner (although my legs are usually out in the same direction as my arms rather than straight down), soldier and free faller. I sometimes lie in the starfish but it gets uncomfortable quickly so I don’t think I ever slep in that position.
