Sleeping on Stomach

[bradskoam 0]

Hi All

Been banded for 3 days now and i have to say it's getting uncomftorable to sleep at night on my back only. How long did it take the rest of you to start sleeping on your side or stomach post-op?

I've been struggling with sleeping on my back too. I've always been a stomach sleeper and this is something I didn't prepare for. I recently started putting pillows on the sides and leaning on them to help support my belly. Seems to help. I guess it will be awhile before I go to my normal sleeping position.

I slept on my side the first night, for an hour or so at a time. It did hurt a bit when I moved and it was a hard position to get into but I got a pillow under my side like you do when you're pregant, it was just such a relief to get off my back!
