    I’m only 1 day P.O and am so tired! It’s probably all the adrenaline wearing off from the excitement of it and maybe your meds making you tired too? If you’re off work I can’t see how being in bed will do anything but speed your recovery x

    Amanda your body has been through surgery, so it’s taking it’s time to recover. You do your best recovery when your sleeping, your body is working hard to repair itself. Most folk feel crappy for a week but it will fade. Have faith! :)

    Everyone’s body reacts differently to a general anesthetic too so it’s probably wearing off as well :)

    Perfectly normal Hun, you are still very early days and sleep is the best medicine…I found it easier to sleep through the day than at night but my kids are 13 & 16 so they looked after me lol xx

    Mum’s never get a day off! But that’s why your so loved, because your always there ;)

    Best thing for it, get a bit of kip Mrs and leave the kids to their own devices. In the morning you will feel quite stiff so watch when your getting out of bed. No sudden movements. Take it easy, your healing, not wonder-woman! lol.

    Wish you all the best amanda, each day will get easier. Promise :)
