    Hey girls I’m only 5 days post op so still sleeping quite upright but I just wondered when you girls started to feel like it was comfortable enough to sleep in other positions?

    I’m also still so bloated in my tummy and have been every since my op, when did this go for some of you?

    Hi hun I’m also 11 days PO and have been sleeping on my side since day 6. I say sleeping on my sides but I’m still using my v pillow so I’m not as far on my side as I would have been without it. It’s pretty comfy though. I am waking up with slightly achy boobs but I think that would be the case no matter how I slept. Apparently it’s called morning boob lol

    Yep and honestly it’s been ok. Only thing that’s uncomfortable is id normally sleep with my upper arm on my side but I obv now have a big tender boob there instead so just needing to find a different position. My bloating went away after about 5 days thank god. It was defo the pain killers and the fact I was so tired I was junk craving junk food. I have been eating a lot better since I started feeling better and the bloated belly went away and also the toilet trips became more frequent again lol. Thank god as was starting to feel the size of a house!!

    That’s good hun, glad hour bloating went so soon for you! I agree about the meds, I stopped taking my pain meds after about day 3 coz they were making me feel so sick and tired but still on antibiotics which is making me abit sicky but hopefully, 2 more days and that can all stop then maybe my tummy will start feeling abit more normal. I’ve got my bootea at the ready to help get my tummy back and the toilet trips more frequent ha ha! Xx

    Yeah hopefully our bloating will stop soon Amber I feel your pain lol xx
