Sleeping on side 3-5 weeks post op

I’m now 5 weeks post op and seemed to of had a very good recovery
I haven’t had any pains since around 2 weeks post op. Starting to feel like it’s not normal how well I recovered!
I started sleeping on my side still using my V pillow around a week ago as I have zero pain whatsoever
Just checking if this is a big no go or just down to whatever your comfortable?

I am also.5 weeks My surgeon said it’s fine

Sounds like you’ve had a good recovery- same here! I braved myself for a horrendous few days post op having read people’s experiences on here!

The day after my surgery I was on the side lines of my sons football training. Stopped pain killers after 2 days and was driving by day 5. I’ve had no pain at all- tenderness and achy yes, but no pain!

I’m 2 weeks post op tomorrow and have been sleeping propped up with my v pillow and neck pillow but really want to turn onto my side now!
