any tricks/tips on getting out of bed?

hey girls,hope your all good…just wondering if anyone had any tips to make it easier to get in and out of bed? Getting in isnt to bad but i find it a little hard at the moment to get out.I kind of have to roll to one side lol and im scared im gonna to rip my scar or something everytime i get out of bed….im only 2days post op..had it monday

thankyou

Hey Hun!! How you doing? I’ve been swinging my legs round and kind of shuffling to the edge! It must look so funny. How you finding the pain? Xx

lol yeah i try and do that to..im good how are you going?i’ve been lucky so far havnt really got pain just feels like i pulled every chest muscle lol…..how r u finding it? Can i ask u another question,sorry but how often do u take ur meds?the nurse told me to take 2 lots every 6hours and the other pain killers every 4hours but when i worked it out if i done that i would only have enough for four days not a week so i just take them all every 6 hours………do u love ur boobs?i love mine already…mario russo is amazing

Yeah I really do! I just can’t believe I’ve managed to get my boobies back! It’s amazing! I was in a lot of pain yesterday but not so bad this morning, I’m taking paracetamol and codeine every 6hrs just to keep on top of it xx

Hiya – I haven’t really had any pain so just took the full course of antibiotics and went onto ibuprofen 3 times a day. It is difficult getting out of bed I just hold behind my knees and rock then get momentum and swing up – hilarious to watch!

ok cool yeah thats what im taking and the infection tablets too…im just taking one codeine tablet cos the pains not to bad (fingers crosssed )it stays that way….well happy healing i hope it all goes well for you xx

thanks lara i’ll try that next time….yeah i hate my bf watching me get out of bed lol i look so funny…..

If the one codeine an paracetamol is covering the pain then carry on with that. I just need a bit more lol. I had unders and have a lot of bruising so I think that’s why I’m in so much pain. It is better today though xx

It’s my first post op morning and I swear I must have looked like a distressed turtle!!! I tried to rock, scrunch all the bed sheets it just wasn’t happening!!! God knows what it must have looked like!!! x x

lol yeah i was just telling my parents and sister that i looked like a turtle on its back when i tried to get out of bed……when you take the tablets are you in no pain at all? or does it still feel tight like you’ve pulled some muscles? i still feel like i’ve pulled some muscles but no bad pain….

Haha distressed turtle on it’s back!!!! Brilliant description! I’m day 11 and still fumbling for a foot hold. Think I’ve used me arms way too much! I didn’t know about the no lie flat rule for the girls few days so I probably misplaced the implants those few nights;(. Oh this is all so stressful! I’m not getting on with my husband and hoping it’s just lack of sleep!!! ?

Yeah it still feels like I’ve pulled muscles but I can move about a bit more. I don’t get on with my on/off partner at the best of times so I just keep saying sorry I’m tired and in pain lol!! Xx

Actually i found the best trick ever, lol don’t laugh – my boyfriend was in stitches every morning watching me do this!! Put both arms under your bent leg and hands together then swing your leg forward and it pulls you up. Just gotta tense and use stomach muscles to help

Yep i did what newboobies did works a treat xx
