Stomach Sleeping

[juliebug 3]

For all you stomach sleepers out there, how long was it befre you could sleep on you stomach again???

It'll probably be a few weeks before it's comfortable. You need to heal a bit before you begin to put much pressure on your port site.

You might be able to put enough pillows around to be almost able to sleep on your stomach, but be careful.

I couldn't help my self about 5 days

Whenever you feel ready, it's different for everyone but I'd say definitely a few weeks. I was nervous so I slept on the couch for about a month before I returned to my bed out of fear of rolling over in the night. So for me it was about a month before I was able to sleep on my stomach, but I was still careful for another month (but I'm just paranoid)

I was able to sleep on my stomach about 2 weeks after surgery and it felt wonderful!

It took me aout 8 days and then with a pillow sorta propping me up on the side. I sorta sleep that way anyway. Drives my husband and dog crazy.

Im a stomach sleeper too. Its been about two weeks since surgery and I still can't do it. I have turned in my sleep twice and it woke me up. I can't wait till its comfortable for me to sleep on my stomach again.

It's crazy how sometimes I wonder something and poof! Someone asks about it on here!

I am side sleeper and have done a few tests with pillows all around me but still not comfy. Hopefully after a couple weeks.
