I started sleeping on my stomach about week 1 maybe even 2, it all depends on when YOU physically can

I tried laying on my stomach at week 1 and when I woke up I was in pain, so I put a pillow under my stomach and it was ok at week 2

I think it all depends on you and what you can tolerate. I could finally sleep on my stomach about 4 wks post op. If it hurts too much I would not do it.

I am two weeks out from surgery and have finally been able to sleep on my stomach. I still can't sleep on my side yet, it's still tender. But if I lay just right I can get by on my stomach now. Surgery Date 9/25/12

you might try a body pillow and kinda lay on it half on your side and half on your stomach. This may give you the comfy support you need for your belly and side. I am a side sleeper but often find myself sleepig kinda half way with the use of the body pillow.
