V – Pillow. Why do we need it?

My BA isn’t until 20th Oct but I have seen lots of girls mention the V-Pillows. Why do we need it? Can we not sleep nomally afterwards? How long for?

Thanks Girlies x

Hey, you can’t sleep flat on your back, on your front or side. You have to be upright and sleep like it and its very uncomftable and a v pillow helps support you, its a good idea to get one!! I don’t know what I’d do without mine!

Hey hun,

You need to sleep propped up a little. Plus for the comfort when you’re sat around, healing. I’m 4 days post op now and I would say its been the most useful item through the whole thing! Normal pillows are no good at all, the v-shape ones give your whole top half great support xxx

ohhh…. thanks girls! Sleep upright!? Why do you have to do that? Not looking forward to that :o(

Its really more comfortable sleeping that way hun! I was dreading that part too but I’ve really not slept as well in a long time! Trust me, you’ll be fine xx

Thanks girlies!

Hi Sharon, I am less than 24 hour post op & I wish I took my V pillow to hospiatl with me. The sleeping upright was okay but it was like sleeping upright in the car & my head kept falling to one side which woke me up. V pillow keeps you snuggled in.

Good Luck x

I’m looking online now to get one! Looks like it’s essential!!!!
