Flat bum Started by: Daniella

Totally with you!! My whole body is aching from sleeping upright but I’m scared to start sleeping flat as I’m scared my boobs will just start falling to the sides ha, I’ve heard people saying one week, two weeks or even three weeks. I’ve got my check up tomorrow so I’m going to ask my surgeon what he thinks is best and I’ll let you know x

I’ve been sliding down the bed during the night and struggling to get myself up in the morning ? found sleeping with a big pillow under my knees has helped me stay upright more! I can’t wait for a good nights sleep!! X

My nurse advised me to sleep upright for 3 weeks then to slowly start taking away a pillow at a time! I’m 17 days post op and have been sleeping a lot lower since 2 weeks post op as my boobs go nowhere with my macom on and like you ladies I just couldn’t do it anymore but I have found I tend to roll onto my side though so just be careful of that if you do sleep lower! X

I carried on sleeping upright until 7 weeks post op because I am the most nervous person ever! I also got quite used to it, too! Tonight will be only my third night lying flat on my back!
