Am not getting any sleep cause of this one incision on my left side of the belly where the stomach came out I'm take Tylenol 3 but that don't work at all i tried everything my right side of my body hurts from constantly laying on it and sleeping on back is do hard will I ever be able to sleep on my left it seems to be a dream right now. Lol

The incision where my tummy came out was by far the worst. It took about four weeks to be comfy with it. But mine was right above my bellybutton and I am a stomach sleeper.

How far out are you?

I can't sleep either but that is because there is a hugeeee brown recluse hanging out above my bed.

I'm 19 days out my incision is like 4 inches away from my boob so it drives my crazy iv been up since 430 am and I have a 3 yr old who won't let me nap lol I'm getting about 4 hrs asleep every might

It should get better in a few weeks. I would still call your doc and ask for something stronger for the pain.

Also, most docs allow sleep aids, that may help you push through the pain.

I did yesterday and that's y I'm taking Tylenol 3 and they ain't helping I could use a body massage lol my hubby is in for it tonight

I swear you and I are twinnies. Lol. I was almost in tears last night from that same incision. I desperately wanted to fall asleep on my left side and that was such a major no go. Boyfriend wanted me to take something for pain but I refused. Just wanted to sleep it off. I hate sleeping on my back. I normally toss and turn so all of my body gets equal time on the mattress. I wake up feeling like I'm getting bedsores on my butt from all of this sleeping on my back. Lol.

Ask your doctor if you can try some liquid benadryl to help you sleep. I find that supporting my surgical side of my stomach with a pillow helps a little.
