The safest position is to sleep on the side rather than on the back.
There is really very little physical activity that you could do that would hurt a baby. Later in pregnancy you will maintain better blood flow to the baby by sleeping on your side (either right or left) instead of on your back.
God is smart. He cushioned the baby in a sac of water (amnionic fluid) so the baby would have a place to ROLL around. It takes a lot of force or trauma to
cause that to rupture

Not in a normal healthy pregnancy. If your having a problem with gestation then your health care team may advise you that sleeping on your silde is best. In most cases if this is important you will be admitted to a hospital.
You can not hurt the baby in the womb when you are sleeping.. Remember the baby is in a pool of amniotic fluid which protects the developing fetus. However after 20 weeks, you can no longer sleep on your back because the uterus compresses on a major blood vessel which may cause decrease blood flow to the uterus. You need to sleep on the left or right side.
Other than sleeping on your stomach, the baby is pretty well protected. Only blunt force trauma or inserting things in the vaginal can harm the baby.
No.
