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.
