Asked By:MONICA COAST in Port Macquarie, AU

Hi, I have existing sleeping issues, and can only sleep on my stomach... which has never been a problem due to being so flat chested... ! But, can you still sleep on your stomach after you have healed ? And if I am only used to sleeping on my stomach, will taking something to help me sleep, post op, on my back .. be ok ?
