lying on your tummy… will it ever be comfortable again?

I’m 10 weeks post op and although I can lie on my tummy its not comfortable and after about 5 minutes I change position. Anyone post op find it comfortable? Or is it never going to be quite the same? Really miss it as I used to sleep in that position

After 4 years i find it very comfy..over time it will get better x

Oh thats good to know, thank you It has improved over time, just wondered how log it would take xxx

hiya, im 22 days and i sleep on my front so it should get easier hun.x

Your very lucky but thanks hun, interesting to see how everyone is again so different xx

i suppose it all depends on the size and type of op we all had. it was uncomfortable at first but it did get easier hun. can you sleep on your side yet?

Yeah I can sleep on my side no problem, just always used to lie really flat on my tummy… I can get into that position just the pressure I feel on my chest is really uncomfortable, feel like I’m really squashing them, make sense? xxx

this is driving me bad..13wks post op and stil cant lie on my front for more than 2 minutes without it hurting and bein uncomfortable. i havent had a decent sleep for months bcz i always used to sleep on my belly! xx

This may sound stupid but I always sleep on my front too and I think that may have contributed over the years to the flattening of my breast tissue. So I think I’ll try not to do it once I get my implants as want them to last as long as poss.

i started by lying on my side and eventualy edged my way onto my stomach, it was sore at first but each time i did it i tried to hold it a bit longer and now im fine, i can only sleep on my stomach so i had to do it lol. good luck with it i hope you are sleeping on your bellys soon.

Ah Chels, thats exactly how I feel. Just hope I’m comfortable enough by the time I go on holiday so I can tan the backs of my legs lol! Lisam, do you think lying on your tummy would effect the look of our implants then? xx

I’m not sure Kutri. But its a question I’m going to ask my surgeon. I’m probably worrying about nothing. I do love sleeping on my front. x

Ohh please do, let me know what he says? Shall like to know if I’m causing any damage xxx

yea id like to know that too actually! didnt think about that! i went on hol 6wks after my op kutri n i was gutted i couldnt tan my back xx
