I read it firstly reduces swelling, but if you don’t it can affect the implant pocket and how the implant settles x

I’m just over6 weeks just can’t get comfy on my side either drives me crazy . I’m so used to sleeping upright to. I love the look of wired bras but still wear support bras everyday . Crazy I no . I still have shallow baths too I should just brave up I’m sure I can put soap on them now . But they don’t need it . I love pampering my babies, with this extra care .lol. Spoilt little brats . Haha x

Em get a long sausage pillow and cuddle it on your side so the twins have something to rest on works a treat for me and tequila get two pillows and put them under your knees stops you from sliding down when your sleeping x

Have you got a good sports bra where they don’t move on side ? When your cuddling your long pillow put one leg over it like you would cuddling your man x
