I am almost 4 months pregnant and know I should not be sleeping on my side, and will stuff pillows on both sides of me to keep me that way, but I wake up in the morning with the pillows on the floor and me laying on my stomach and occasionally my back. I know at 4 months it isn't as big of a deal as it will be at like 7 months, but is there any tips to stop doing that now so I can't do it then? Also, am I causing any harm to my baby now, as I am barely showing?

it's really ok until you start getting uncomfortable with laying on your stomach and by then you won't be able to lay on your stomach without feeling like you're laying on watermelon. so don't worry about it.
Try a body pillow between your legs, it can help. You should be sleeping on your side, because when you are on your back you are putting extra pressure on the arteries that feed the uterus. Eventually, you won't be able to roll onto your belly.
put a pillow between your legs...and one up near your arm to rest on...that way you have something to balance your shoulder on...
