Pillow ideas , sleep topic !

Would this be helpful to get decent sleep post Op ? Anyone got one of these. I’m making a list of essentials and this looks mega comfy !? X

This looks fab were is it from Hun xxx

Looks fab where’s it’s from? I’ve seen a lot of people using the back rest from Argos for the bed, with a v pillow x

Hi Jessica and Gabrielle. Its from House of bath, bargain too as reduced from £24.99 to £9.99, £4.90 postage. I do think it looks pretty good. I know people like the V cushions but this looks to offer more lower back support. I’m really worried about having poor sleep post op as I’m dreadfully narky if I am tired next day. Lol. Xx

Thanks so much for posting this Jen i just ordered one x

Me too Claudine! Hope it helps. There’s a code for an extra £1.99 off too on line. Xx

What’s it called on the website ? Xx

XQHL3 , this is a free delivery code ladies so saves £4.95 postage too! xx

Hi Rachel, its ‘Faux sheepskin back support’ , see above for free delivery code too xx

I bought the foam pillow wedge to use but that alone would only keep me at 45 degree angle. I’m dreading the sleeping bolt up right, how long do we have to do that for? Xxxx

Nikki , I am dreading it as I can only sleep on my sides, I’ve heard that you have to sleep upright 6 weeks! if not it can affect how the implants settle. xx

Aw thank you 🙂 xx

Hi, was the sheepskin back support pillow a success? As I would like to know before buying it 🙂 x

I’ve just ordered one ready for my TT and BA, thank you! X

I bought this to help with sitting up in an armchair. If anything it gave me back ache. I resorted to bringing my v pillow downstairs and used that during the day aswell as the night x

I have one off these as well as my v pillow and I’ve got to say it’s brilliant I’m having a great nights sleep now with this and my v pillow xxx

I’ve got my v pillow left over from pregnancies, this cushion and a million pillows. I’m hoping that will be sufficient! I know my recovery will be slightly different as I’m having a TT too, which if anything like a csection, won’t be fun combined with a BA. Haha!

Aww your soo brave Hun I’d love a tt but I couldn’t go thru the pain of one I’m such a whimp lol I can’t deal with pain very well st the best of times I’ve been quite lucky with my ba and had a good recovery soo far xxx

I’m hoping this will be easier than a csection as I won’t have to recover from having a baby, then dealing with a newborn as well as healing from surgery. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway so I don’t chicken out. Haha!

Hi Jen got a link for where you got that back pillow thingy from? Looks like just what I need extra, though dunno if I should bother now at 10 days PO!!

The website is called house of bath and you just type in sheepskin back support x

@rpurce1993 thanks, Rachel! xxx

@sylvianna I didn’t get on with it ! I have hardly used it. I found the best pillow to be a memory foam V (got to be memory foam! ) I got mine from Matalan for £19.99. I bought the bedrest too from Argos …again didn’t suit me (I know a lot of ladies love it). One little tip I found useful was to put a pillow each side of you( snug to arm pits and sides ) when you go to lay flat stage ,it just takes pressure off shoulders a little with the boobs still been tender etc.. the sleep sitch overall is pretty tough but you just have to find your own way of finding some comfort , I found it very difficult first 2 weeks xx

@pearl500 Your V pillow sounds like it beats mine in terms of comfort, then! haha and omg that’s such a great tip! thank you! sleeping on back is the worst for sure, so I will try that, as I start flat-back sleeping this sat xxx

Thanks girls i have just ordered one. I have already bought a v-pillow, im willing to try anything, dreading the sleeping part as I always lie on my front starfished out! xx

@sylvianna here’s a little doodle of my set up ! The pillow my head is on is memory foam , helps support neck more. As you can see my pillow stash has taken over the super king bed, my hubby has had to move to spare bedroom ! Lol xx

@laurenmt that looks so good and perf! good luck in op!

@sylvianna thankyou! I hope it is as comfy as it looks! My little brother even requested one for his bed haha

@laurenmt yeah looks super comfy haha with sleeping upright it really is an investment because without nothing you basically wont sleep for weeks!!

@laurenmt that looks like it will be really comfy. Do you have an item number for it from ebay please? All the ones I have come across look thinner or smaller

I’ve just bought this for my BA in November. Need to find a good v pillow to team up with it I think. Are the memory foam ones better?
