Everyone's different but I was sleeping on my side almost straight away. Of course now, almost 2 weeks later, there's no pain at all.

I was banded Oct 26 and was sleeping on my side in the hospital. It just depends on your comfort.

Good luck!

less than a week.

I turned over onto my stomach in my sleep on day 2. That hurt... by day 4, i could find a comfortable way of sleeping on my stomach with minimal pain... by 7 days, i could lie on my stomach with no real pain.

Its 2 weeks now, banded on the 31st of october. I have no pain at all.

I was banded a week ago. I was sleeping on my left side the night of surgery. I couldn't sleep on my right side or stomach for about 4 days, but I can now with no problem.
