How High Up Have I Got To Sleep??

I’m just raised slightly .. Is there a certain angle I need to be??

Xxx

You nee to be at about 45 degrees hun! Its a ball ache but youll get used to it xxx

Sleeping upright is to help the swelling go down and with the settling of the implants. I’ve read some starting to lie flater within the first week but I would say where and when you are comfy. It litteraly is a pain in the ass! This was/is the part of me that is suffering the most lol. I’m 25 days post op now and still not comfy! I even took to sleeping on the sofa last night as I just cant get comfy in bed and I had almost a full night sleep. If I lie flatter I get a really crampy feeling in my boobs but some get no discomfort. I’d say if you are swollen then try to sleep upright for a while to help it go down XX

Sleep tight lol X

Thanks girls I wouldn’t say I’m really swollen – I had drains. But whatevers comfy I’ll try its such a nightmare xxx

I’ve been sleeping at about 45 degree angle – anything less than that then I swear to god I wouldn’t get up again haha…

Saw my nurse for me post-op today and she said I can start to lie flat(ter) but tbh, it just isn’t comfy for me yet so I’ll stick to being raised and gradually lower the angle xx

i slept upright for 1 day and thats coz i literally cudnt move off my chair i was in that much pain!! that was day 3 or 4. most of the time i slept on my back with 2 pillows under me and a v pillow, i wasnt 45 degrees and i was fine. its to help the sweeling, but as long as u sit up for the rest the day ull be fine. i cudnt bare the pain in had in my arse any longer lol n get sum ice packs n u instead xxx
