    I had my surgery 12/16/16 and I asked the same question. My doctor said what ever way is comfortable. But, I'm currently using a full body pillow that's doing the trick, very comfortable.

    I was told sleep in any position that is comfortable.

    I was sleeved 12/19. Had a binder on right after I woke up in the hospital and was sleeping on my sides while I was there. No one ever said not to.
