    I’m 5 days post op, and I feel great tbh. I’ve been sleeping upright since my op, but when can I sleep flat on my back? Or on my sides? X

    I don’t think I’m gonna be much good at sleeping upright or on my back. I’ve always slept on my side and always wake up on my front. My only hope is that the pain will make me stay in the proper position!
