Pacific, beware that it is not a good idea to attempt to control your sleep apnea by only sleeping on your stomach. There are good physiological reasons why we change position dozens of times every night while we sleep. If you force yourself to sleep in only one position you will find that this act in itself will make you feel fatigued eventually.
