When can I sleep on my side girlies? :)

Hey girls!

I’m 2 weeks PO, have been really good sleeping on my back with my v pillow but now it’s just getting annoying, my back aches and just need to lay on my side and snuggle my duvet! Haha when did you girls start sleeping on your side? xx

Yes defo well I started sleeping on my side around 2 weeks maybe before I find one boob is bigger because swelling goes on the side you lay on the nurse said lol x

ahhh ive only had mine done 4days ago and its doing my head in sleeping up rite … dont no what i would of done with out my v pillow .. just would love a good night sleep xx

I’m struggling 5 days po and I’ve given up sleeping sat up, my back was in agony. Am sleeping laid down with a couple of pillows and my v pillow but back still kills as I always used to sleep on my side. Getting so annoyed with the back pains, wanna cry xxx

I started sleeping on my side about 3 weeks po, never looked back lol. I laid on my back from day 2 po and couldn’t doing the sleeping upright! xxx

I started at around 10 days, I still find it a bit uncomfortable and I’m 18 days xx

I am 11 days po and i have a numb patch on the top of my bum where all the pressure of sleeping upright is. really have no feeling there at the moment and i’m even semi lay down, cant sleep fully on my back yet, it takes me so long to get up if i lie down for a while, its just not worth it ha! x

i started sleeping on my side a few nights ago (2 weeks post op same as jess) but it still bloody hurts lol. it takes me even longer to get out of bed in the morning now because i have to move so slow. this time 2 weeks ago i was at the train station, wish i could do it all again, how saw is that lol. xx

haha natalie im so glad im not the only one with a numb bum, i said im sure they’ve done something to my bum cuz its numb at the top like pins and needles haha xx

Some of the girls have posted that the v pillow is a godsend propped under your boob,never tried it myself but it may work for those of you that are a couple of weeks post op,but I think with anything follow the rule if it hurts don’t do it,big hugs,the end results will be worth it,soon be summer and youll be showing your new boobies off,xxx

Im 12 days post op and in no pain, they are soft and all swelling gone so i started sleeping on my side at 10 days po…but that is because I had no pain..i thnk just go on how your feeling and do what feels right for you xx

Thanks girls! I don’t want to damage them in any way and am healing so well, have had hardly any pain in the past week, even getting up in the morning has been pretty easy (touch wood it will stay that way), taking it so easy though! I had been fine really but last night I got in bed and just couldn’t get comfy on my back, I love my v pillow and could never have gone without it, I just love laying on my side and snuggling into my duvet! I will leave it a bit longer I think, don’t want to hurt my babies hehe! xx
