SELF.com  shares the best types of mattresses for stomach sleepers. 

Even if you manage to snooze straight through the night, sleeping on your stomach can have you feeling stiff—and cranky—when your eyes flutter open in the morning. “Stomach sleeping is the least ideal position, compared to back and side, when it comes to neck and low back pain,” said Naimish Baxi, MD, physiatrist at HSS.
