Sleeping on your stomach

[Aviobell 15]

Has anyone slept on their stomach? I'm a side and stomach sleeper. I've been propping my head up with pillows at kind of an angel. Bad idea?

I did within a couple of nights - on my side at least, propped with a body pillow.

I started sleeping on my stomach a few days ago and I'm almost 2 weeks post op. Go for it when it feels comfortable.

I started sleeping on my stomach on the 3rd or 4th night by accident. It helped so much with the gas. If you are going to do it, I suggest doing it with some support, like Shapewear or a binder on to hold your stomach in when you roll over.
