when is it ok to sleep on my front?

I am 10 days P.O. now from having mastopexy (nipple lift) with implants. I slept on my belly last night and felt so comfortable I just wanna know is it ok yet to sleep like that? Xx

I was told to sleep raised on my back for first 10 days then after that I have been told I could go slightly on my side but not my front, maybe ring your clinic and see what they say. Sounds a bit soon for your front though. Your avi makes me soooo jealous lol xx

Yeah even though it feels comfortable it's best to check to make sure isn't it :-) aww thanks hun just wish I could put pic the right way round this stupid phone haha your implants are same as mine I had 410cc xxx

I'm really pleased with the size. I was so worried I would end up too big but now I think I could have gone with the 460s lol xx

At 10 days you should still be raised slightly to help with swelling. Once you've had your 1st post op check ask the nurse and do what feels comfatable, I couldn't even geton my side for a couple. Of months let alone my front even now!!! X

Too early for your front and even your side, you should be on your back raised slightly. x

Best to check with your clinic. Mine said to sleep raised for 48hours. I have slept on my side of the last 2 or 3 nights and apart from some serious morning boob I have had very comfy nights and its well worth the mornings :)

After a mastopexy I really wouldn't advise you lay on your front so early lovely. Think of the pressure you're putting on your new scars! They've barely had time to knit together yet babe, so I'd go back on your back for a while sweetness, maybe sleep on your side if you feel comfortable to do that and only if 'all your swelling has subsided' but definitely not on your front babe. Xx

I agree with the girls above, far too early for you to be laying on your front xx

I've had 3 masto's and couldn't have lay on my front even if I wanted too xx

Awww thanks girls! I'm such a ditz hehe just feel so good doesn't feel like 10 days more like a month! I'm surprised how pain free I have been aswell. I haven't took my pain killers since Friday afternoon because I felt no pain. Even though it's comfy though I would hate to ruin my boobs so think its back to v pillows and sleeping on back for a while haha :-) xxx

You don't look like you've had any stitches at all around the areolas in your avatar Georgina considering you had a mastopexy! X

I had my BA on the 19th of October and i lie on my front ... everything seems fine!! Cant remember when i started to do this though but im pretty sure it wasnt until a fair few weeks after.

I wasnt told i have to sleep tilted either after the op although i did because it was painful getting up!!

You will probably know when you can sleep on your front when it feels right.

Good luck with getting some sleep! :) x

Thanks cookie:-) it looks slightly darker on pic cause there bit puckered but actual stitching on areola looks amazing I think he did micro stitches lol I seen nurse last Thursday aswell and she said they looked like they wad healing fantastic considering it was almost a week P.O. only concern was one stitch hadnf dissolved an she found it hard getting it out so she just cut off the jagerd bit in the end. I'm hoping on Thursday she says it's fine xxx

Do you have a picturetrail I can see babe? I'd love to see the micro stitching. X

Have also PMd you lovely. Xx

by **kay** 9th December 2012, 8:24 pm

I would love to see any pictures of micro stitching as well please hun? xx

My areola looked like horrific 50 pence pieces for about 4 months after my ops xx Might bring forward the whole scar revision if they can look that good at 10 days PO shrug

by georginaxoxo 9th December 2012, 10:29 pm

Awww sorry to hear that Kay! Yeah Mr Schiavone Is known for his good stitching he's so neat don't get me wrong I am quite puckered but compared to some after pics I have seen at only 10 days on other girls .I'm so please with how good they look and I finally have nipples in the right place:-) I will make one tomorrow babe I have a few pics on phone so will upload!

ive been told that if everything goes well and im healing well then after 2 weeks of lying on my back with my head raised above my chest ive to listen to my body when it comes to side sleeping etc the only very strict rule i have is not lifting for 3 weeks and even after that its only light things xx
