I’m a stomach sleeper and I have been looking at getting a new mattress as mine is a pos. I’m a stomach sleeper 75% of the time and a side sleeper the other 25%. I have read that the middle firm mattresses are the best for stomach sleepers. Fellow stomach sleepers what do you prefer? Obviously I can do the exchange if I hate the mattress after I buy it but I’m trying to get it right the first go around.

I am a stomach sleeper, but my current mattress sags so damn bad, I have to sleep on my side or back now. I think something pretty firm would be best for stomach sleepers...however, I can't do real firm.

That mattress that Tom Brady sponsors for is pretty damn comfortable. Try the middle firmness one.

Cavemen didn’t have pillows or mattresses. They survived just fine.

We were designed to sleep on rocks.

Go with the hardest mattress you can find.

You should get a firm mattress and if you don't like it, just get a soft mattress topper.

No need to buy a whole nother mattress.

I’m a stomach sleeper and I believe this. I absolutely cannot sleep on my back though and I’ll wake up on my side sometimes it can’t fall asleep on it either. I would like to figure out a good pillow for stomach sleepers. But yea, I get neck soreness quite a bit

Most comfortable brs I've ever had was a pretty cheap firm that was like sleeping on the floor. I added a 3 or 4 inch memory foam topper and it was a dream.

Very firm and don't use a pillow. Be as flat as possible.

I would prefer to sleep on my back but when I do I wake up the entire neighborhood with my snoring.

I don't know how anyone can sleep on their stomach. I'm a side to back sleeper as heartburn dictates

I struggled with this as well. I am a side stomach sleeper and wife is a back sleeper. Ended up with a sleep number bed which works well for us. Might want to give that a try.
