day 6 post-op and I slept on my stomach

Hi everyone

I slept on my stomach last night for the first time, Is this ok? I don't feel so sore this morning but I did notice a little Fluid coming from one of my incisions but it has stopped. Should I call my surgeon?

I drew on the sidewalk with my daughter on my stomach at the park 4 days post op. if you don't have pain then you should be good. Always check with your surgeon whenever something comes up that you aren't sure about....but it sounds like you are one of the lucky ones that have a fast and easy recovery. Count your blessings! Good luck! :)

I'm on day 12 and can't tummy sleep yet..... I have gotten onto my side but still major discomfort....

The first five och six nights I slept on my back and then I was back in my favorite sleeping postion, on my belly.
