Pediatrician,  's  Response
Did you mean upside down or prone? If he prefers to be prone, and you make sure that his nose isn't getting pinched by the bedsheets and pillows, then there is no problem ... except that you should be near him when he is lying on his stomach.

There will be no issues with his digestion or anything else.

Best wishes,
