I found that putting 2 Pillows one on each side ( that’s way I did not lay directly on my back) helped me sleep through the night on day 4 that’s the best sleep I have had . I’m five days post up and had a full blown emotional breakdown last night surprisingly ( it wasn’t even about the surgery or how I was feeling ) kids overwhelm me a bit but I quickly pulled my self together. It’s ok to cry ! Here i sit 5 days post op and it’s true things slowly get better.
