I am 3 weeks post op and I still can't sleep on my stomach. I get my best sleep on my stomach.

RRRMMAAOO! Yep! I remember this. I use to love sleeping on my stomach and then after surgery I spent so much time sleeping off my tummy I don't sleep that way anymore. Hang in there!

Lol! Same here now I sleep on my back/ side. Stomach days r over! You will get past this. Hang in there!

I braved it and slept on my stomach early on maybe 5 days post I was newly post op! I did it slept GREAT! I remember I was scared and rolled over slowly.

i brought me a maternity pillow full size that you can wrap your legs around that really help me a lot.

I'm a tummy sleeper and didn't sleep much at all in the hospital or when I got home. I had discomfort but used pillows to brace areas after about day 6-10 and slept so much better. Now I'm back to my whole tummy sleeping self. More comfy now that my gut isn't as big as well

I am a tummy sleeper as well! It was hard at first but now I can fully sleep on my tummy and I agree its a lot better now without the extra fat there!

Funny you said this.... My back hurts when I sleep on my tummy now since my tummy isn't big. I seem to arch in and after an hour it hurts.

I've had a few aches but I wiggle and shift. It gets more stiff. It's amazing tho not feeling suffocated with laying on your belly.
