1. She  could try prone position or 'laid-back' bf.
 
~~~Just want to clarify, "prone" means lying face down, in anatomical  
terms. Sometimes I see people using it as if it is synonymous with lying down (  
as in back, or on the back) in general.

Has the usage changed from the original anatomical, face-down meaning?  We 
were taught to use "supine" for lying back and "prone" for lying face  down.
 
Peace,
Judy
