    Have you tried one of those travel neck pillows? Mine was a god send in the first week. Also get a hot water bottle or some heat patches to ease your back. How have you got your bed set up? I was Aleppo h far more propped up than I needed to xx

    I do have a neck pillow yeah,haven’t used it yet though. Maybe I’ll try that! I’ve been using loads of pillows up right and then my v pillow in front of it,then another pillow in front of that. Just can’t get comfy. The first two nights were fine but I’ve woken up so sore and achey x

    Maybe you are sleeping too high up? I only had 3 pillows and my v pillow. At been sleeping really propped up then on my 1 wk check mentioned it to the nurse and she said I didn’t need to be so propped up. I hate not sleeping well I love my sleep!! Xx

    Hollie, do you find when you wake up and lift up you get a sharp pain in your breasts around the nipple? It feels like the incisions are ripping off? X
