I slept in a recliner so I was upright, the flatter I laid down the more gas pain... I also lived on gas x strips for the first couple of days... Make sure you are walking around... It will help the gas pains and you will be able to sleep before you know it ;)

I spent the first 3 days sleeping wherever I could, the couch, the chair, the spare room, ANYWHERE! I didnt get much either BUT I found comfirt in a wheat bag. Like a heating pad, put over my shoulders and neck. Also found walking walking walking to help. After day 3 I would walk after dinner until I was sore and the fresh air and exercise would really help allot.

GOOD LUCK!

The gas makes you feel like you are having a baby.. Take gas x and sleep on pillows. A baby boppy pillow helps out a lot.
