    Day 6 post op today and even if they have changed a lot, I’m still having some discomfort and pain in the middle of my chest.

    For how long we have to sleep at 46 degrees? my back is starting to complain 🙁

    Hi I’m 8 days post op and still having pain & pressure in the middle of my chest! My surgeon called me 4 days post op to see how I was & I said not bad but sleeping up is the hardest part! He said you don’t have to be sleeping up right now you can lie flat or however you feel comfortable. I lay flat that night & the pain the next day was so not worth it!! ? So I think best to wait until the pain subsides..that’s when I’ll try laying flat again!
    Boobs are looking great btw! Xx

    No don’t worry I’m sure it’s not anything you’re doing wrong I was exactly the same. Really bad neck & back pains was actually in tears through the night at one point because of it! I wouldn’t advise laying flat until you feel a bit better pain wise. I’m lying a little flatter than 45degrees now but it’s still so sore being on my back all the time! I’m sure we’ll get there eventually! I’m hoping by the 2 week mark I’m not feeling any pain anymore & sleeping will be more comfortable! Maybe you will be feeling better sooner than me I guess everyone is different! Xx

    Hiya huni, your new boobies look amazing I’m in lovev????I’m 7 days po today the pressure in my chest has finally gone and I doesn’t seem tight. I never thought I’d get to this stage my recovery has been awful I’ve been in agony and so emotional wishing I hadn’t of had them done that all this pain wasn’t worth it. I’ve found my v shaped pillow and neck pillow do help me although I still get a bit of pain in my back. I’ve just had my first shower which has helped I’m starting to feel a little normal again lol. Hope your feeling better today huni xxxx
