When To Sleep In Bed On Stomach?

[wishfulaimee 16]

Had a question when were some of you ready to sleep in bed or on side after surgery. I am 4 days post op and really wanting out of the recliner. Need some advice (:

Oh also when did you feel you could comfortably ride in a car again or drive?

I drove 3 days out! It took about two weeks before I could sleep on it or get up completely pain free.

The bed was horrible I used the couch which gave me something to grab ahold of to get up and roll That part always worried me I was scared to get a hernia they say no more than 10 lbs but heck I was way overdoing that trying to sit up.

At the hospital I would get into bed when I had to sleep cause I was dressing getting out of it. I just would stand around and walk.

I was only in the recliner 1 night then in my bed with at least 2 pillows. I can lay flat but its not always comfortable!

I slept on my stomach the first night at the hospital.

It took me about 3 weeks before I could sleep on my stomach. Even now I mostly sleep on back or side.
