    So my surgery is on Monday! Not long at all now. But I still don’t feel as if im prepared enough! There’s still a few things I feel unsure of so if anyone can help me that would be great!
    1) First of all sleeping. After my operation am I allowed to sleep on my back or do I have to sleep sitting up for a few days? If so how long after can I sleep on my back?
    2) Once I’ve had my operation do I need to moisturise my boobs to try and prevent stretch marks etc? I know to stay away from my incisions
    3) I know for the first week I need to wear a high impact sports bra. I have a front fastening one from George online. After my one week check am I ok to just wear a normal good supporting sports bra?
    4) Will I need to have a catheter while I have my surgery?

    Thanks girls! X

    Not long Danielle now, I bought a V pillow for sleeping afterwards and a few Asda bras that my PC recommended and then a high impact sports bra from M&S.
    I wanted to know whether you can moisturise also, i hate my skin feeling dry. I also bought Arnica tablets yesterday after seeing a few girls recommend them on here
    So excited!! I guess ill see you monday 😀 xx
