Slept on my belly last night....

Hi! Woke up on my belly this a.m. and was delighted that it didn't hurt - but my back was killing me! LOL And I thought "am I going to be able to roll over?".
Anyway - I figure that must be my 4 week present to myself - and it did burn and itch for awhile this a.m. but I'm glad I didn't wake up that way any sooner then now. There is hope belly sleepers! =)

I remember the first night I was able to sleep on my belly, it felt great

Hey Zmin, We had our surgery the same day. You're a bit further along than I am. I'm almost able to sleep on my stomach - I CAN'T WAIT!!! I'm glad to hear you're doing well.

Ahh Yes! I know how you feel cuz I'm a total belly sleeper. If you can believe this, I actually slept my 2nd night post-op in hospital on my belly! Nurse came in at 6:15 to give me meds and asked if I was ready. I said, "give me 15 more minutes" which is about how long it took me to roll back over! But oh, it felt so good on my back to have slept on my tummy again! Yes, there is hope!
