i wear 925 silver small squarish shape loop earrings. my ear holes were pierced ranging from 10 to 20+ years ago. i always sleep with my earrings on, unless i happen to change earrings when going out and than i leave my ear to "air" for a night lol. i've never felt discomfort from sleeping with earrings but rather my ears are quite hard and so sometimes i woke up with painful ears because i happen to "bend" it when i slept on my side :laugh:.
 
I don't, the backs are really uncomfy when you sleep on your side, especially the little pointy ones. The only time I ever slept in them was for the first 6 weeks when you're not supposed to take them out.

If you've had yours pierced for a while, they shouldn't heal over if you sleep without them. As a kid I'd go for months without wearing any earrings day and night and they didn't heal over.
 
The only time I sleep without earrings is when I've worn big/ dangly earrings for a night out and I come home tired. In that case I just take them out and go to sleep. Otherwise I wear studs and I leave them in...
 
I sleep with earrings in every night, ranging from diamond studs, to sterling silver barbells and a pair of pearl earrings (I actually found them inside of a clam that I had picked up off the beach and there were two pearls inside. So they became earrings.)

I have 10 holes in my ears, 5 in each, and am also a side sleeper. But I've never had a problem with any of them.
 
I have solitare diamond earrings with screwbacks and I take them out at night...I sleep on my side and they jab into my head! lol! But I do have small hoops with diamonds and they don't bother me at all when I sleep in them.
 
It's weird for people to say even studs are uncomfortable for sleeping, probably because I've worn mine 24/7 for, well, since ever! Any other type of earrings I can't do - like hoops or dare I say drops. I can't even feel my studs on.
