I am a stomach sleeper too- I could do it at about one week out- I am two and a half weeks out now and it's no problem-but I didn't have much pain after the surgery!

I am also a stomach sleeper. Almost three weeks out and I'm still having to sleep on my back. Which means I'm sleeping poorly...will be interested in how long it finally takes to get 'back' to sleeping on my tummy!

I'm a stomach sleeper too, the first two nights in the hospital I slept on my side. (Very poorly). Since I've been home (two nights) I've been sleeping on my stomach. I will admit it is painful to get there, but once I do it doesn't really hurt (until I try to get up). But I've been sleeping a little better. I'm still sleeping poorly, but I was sleeping poorly for like 6-8 months pre op too.

Day 4, Rolled over in my sleep and it felt so good. It helped so much with the gas.

If you have something tight on to support your stomach, it should't be an issue
