    You can’t help moving in your sleep! I sleep with a v pillow which keeps me in place at about 45 degrees, I think as long as you are confortable you should be ok but I would try to stay up a little if u can x

    I got the bandages removed yesterday at 7 days PO and got told I have to sleep propped up for another week to avoid swelling and soreness not that it affects anything else. It’s so uncomfortable on your back.

    I am so scared about bottoming out so I am listening to what I have been told, which is definitely a first!! Xx
