Sleeping on your stomach

Hey all! I'm 9 days post op, is it too soon to sleep on my stomach? I usually sleep on my back but woke up on my stomach this morning and now I feel all crampy.

I'm a stomach sleeper... So I asked when I could sleep on my stomach before I left the hospital and my surgeon said that night! (3rd day post op) you should be fine now at 9 days out :)

I am a stomach sleeper as well... I asked my surgeon before surgery cause I knew it would be a struggle for me... He said I could do it as soon as I would like but that it would probably not feel good right away! He was right I tried it on day 3 and it wasn't happening but by day 6 I was good to go! Good Luck :)

I am a stomach sleeper. It took me 4 weeks to sleep on my stomach with out any discomfort
