When can I expect to sleep facing down

[Jaredr440]

Most of my stitches are gone and the ones that are still there are the reason I’m feeling some stinging pains I’m guessing. Also I’m only a week post op

I wouldn't worry about sleeping facing down for the first month or so. Sleep on your back or to the side. 1 week post op is still really early.

Also a note, sleeping on the belly face down is the worst position for your spine. Try to get used to sleeping on the back or at least on the side. I too was a face down sleeper but slowly transitioned into side xD.
