how long do u have to sleep sitting up?

im 5 days posp op how long do u have 2 sleep sitting up/ this morning i woke up basically on my side then again mostly lying dwn. is this ok? xx

I was told 2 weeks honey,but that was just my surgeons instructions to me.xxx

Im having a nightmare with night time! I have pillows to prop me up plus a v pillow. Im used to sleeping on my side and wake up loads during the night cos i either slip down, roll over or cant get comfy

I cant wait til I can sleep on my side again!! Xx

im 6 days po and i normally go alseep on my front dont think i will be doing this for months to come lol

At my 1 week check, the nurse told me I could lower the pillows but I couldn’t sleep flat for a few weeks and definitely not on my side or front. I am 4 weeks post op now and I have lowered my pillows quite a lot but if I wake up too flat, it hurts when I get up. So just keep lowering the pillows and see how you feel xx

I’ve just been sleeping on the sofa with my legs on a chair. my bum hurts if I sleep propped up on the bed x

That’s what I did for the first 2 weeks Laura, I slept on the sofa, it was a lot more comfortable x
