I'm 2 weeks out and am finally able to sleep on my stomach. I feel your pain! I was miserable for a couple days beforehand

Four days out. My Dr wanted me to sleep sitting up for the first month, but that's the one area I was non-compliant. I simply could not sleep like that and was getting sicker and sicker. I finally said hell with it.

I always sleep with pillows surrounding me but mostly on my stomach. I was doing the same thing by day 3 after surgery. Day 2 was HE'LL for me...but by day 3 I was fine.

I was able to sleep on my stomach at about 4-5 days post op. It will depend on how you are feeling pain wise.

I must be a big sissy pants. I usually sleep on my side, but I stayed on my back for two solid weeks so I would not disturb anything.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
