    Hi Lauren,I am sorry to hear about your experience .Have you tried the adjustable back support from Argos yet ? they are really good ..I am nearly 3 weeks post op and It has made things much easier to sleep upright for me …

    Hi Lauren. I saw your post and I wanted to comment as I totally understand. I slept lying down after two nights of trying to sleep upright with zero sleep. Your body will only recover with good sleep, and 11 days post surgery my boobs are doing exactly what they should be regardless!! you need to sleep, this is my advice, popular or not, do what is comfortable for you.x

    I was the exact same too, i’d suggest a memory foam mattress topper if you haven’t already got one on your bed. That will help with the numb bum! I also had a memory foam neck pillow too only £5 from b&m, it gets a bit sweaty but definitely helps because you can sleep with your head to the side but your body still upright. You only need to be propped up though.. like a 45 degree angle xx
