Im in the last stages before i head to surgery but i have a question..can you sleep in your bed after getting home or did you sleep in a recliner.. i ask this as i dont have one and was wondering if i needed to see if i could get one

thanks for your input

thanks Benjammin for the input!

When I broke my ribs, I had to sleep on our recliner couch for 3 months so I know this won't be that bad.

I slept in the recliner for almost two weeks after surgery... but, I should note that I often slept in the recliner pre-surgery due to back issues.

I know a lot of people do OK with propping pillows. But if you have a recliner, that might be nice to have set up for when you get home from surgery. That way, if you want to use it, it will be ready!

I thought about getting one too but did not need one. Yes, it takes a couple of minutes to get out of bed but it only lasts a few days. I was easily able to get out of bed with a tiny bit of pain by day 4. Just didn't seem worth buying a new chair for that. So I wouldn't recommend it. Sleeping itself was totally comfortable and I slept like a baby.

I sleep in my bed. If the acids reflux is up, I prop myself up

I sleep in my bed, haven't had any problems yet,

i tried my bed. Sent hubby to Big Lots to get a recliner. Must have sleeeeeep.
