Re: sleeping more reclined now

[Guest guest]

Hi Halley,

Previous to surgery I asked my OS how long I would need to sleep inclined. My

hubby and I

were a little concerned, I wanted to sleep in bed with him! My OS said 5

days inclined,

which I thought was short. I did a little more, i think 9 days inclinned on the

couch. But I'm

back in bed now (with 2 pillows instead of my normal one). I do notice that I'm

a little more

swollen in the morning as well, but it does seem to go down. I would 'check

with your OS' of

course, but I think you are fine.
