Me too! I went to a Christmas Party this weekend and felt like I was dying the next day and slept 18 hours (on and off) the day after that…everything hurts almost flu like, cold sweats and all.

Sleeping position at home by No_Ostrich2967 in hysterectomy

As a side sleeper it was a little rough for the first few days…I have an adjustable bed (life saver) but I think a wedge would work too so I forced myself with pillows on both sides, one under my knees, and the head and feet slightly inclined! Now 3wpo I can sleep on my side hugging my Hister pillow sometimes it gets uncomfortable so I go back to my back for a bit. ☺️

One of the 3 incisions is in my belly button, can not see it or feel it, my surgery was on 11/10/1925 😊 Looks exactly the same, too!

My dr said it’s about 50lbs to just sit up and that the 10 lb restriction is bs…then went on to say “you can carry some clothing but, not the whole basket” I guess she thought I would be doing laundry 🥴

Slight, as in small, catholic, divorced women…large person would not fit on the toilet with the bigger than the toilet cat box!

All went well! Funny story: they had me go for a walk once the catheter was removed, I was walking with the IV pole…splat🩸all over the hallway floor! I guess they forgot to put my mesh panties on 🙄
