How long does it take for the healing to be done with before laying on your stomach and side don't hurt as hell anymore ?

I'm 10 days out still can't and I am soooo hoping i can soon. I'm such a stomach sleeper. But I got a body pillow I use and then wedge another pillow between me and the bed as i lay on my right side... It's as close as I can get to comfy right now

Took me a week to just lay on one side and a lot of pain went with it. About two weeks i I could tolerate it much better.

14 days out and I keep awaking up on my side and getting sore because of it. I can't wait to go back to tummy sleeping again!

I am a stomach sleeper also and it took me about 10 days to sleep on my stomach. I was scared to tear something inside and worried about the incisions. I didn't really sleep well until I was on my back again so it will be soon !! Just waiting about 10 days

I'm 23 days post-op and barely a few days ago I was able to sleep on my stomach comfortably and my gosh did it feel good!

About 8 days for me. I still twinge a bit when I lay on my tummy at first but it doesn't hurt me to lay there.

I asked my doc on day two post surgery if I would damage any of his work if I tried to sleep on my stomach. He said it might not feel good to me but I would not hurt his efforts. I tried it and he was right. It hurt a fair amount to roll over but once I got into my prone position I slept like a baby. Ahhh, so nice. Every day since then the ease of rolling over has gotten better. At three and a half week out from surgery I don't even notice it any more.

It took about 12 days before I could prop a pillow between me and the bed and lie on my side. I'm not a tummy sleeper but I'm 5 1/2 weeks out now and hubby gave me a great massage last nite and I was lying on my tummy. It was fine. Probly could've done it at maybe 3 weeks or so.

My boobs are too big to lie on my tummy!

Think stomach is easier than side? I hadn't even attempted stomach because side was uncomfortable
