Altered Sleep Schedule

I was sleeved 6/11. Before surgery I was always a night owl, going to bed around midnight or later. Since surgery I am turning out the lights around 10. I figure my body isn't getting the energy/nutrition it was used to so it wants to rest sooner?

I actually kind of like it, feel like I can embrace a longer day.

Anyone else notice significant changes to their sleeping pattern?

I get off work at 12am and home by 1am. I would still not sleep well. After surgery I was sleeping though the night and not getting up going to the bathroom three times within a 5 to 6 hour of the night. Now I sleep though the night and always wake up rested.

At this point you are definitely still healing so you should be getting tired sooner. I have heard of some folks who have had their sleeping patterns changed after surgery.

I also now sleep through the night and early on I was ed and went to bed early. It is much better now at 6 weeks out for me.

Definitely sleeping A LOT more post op. Before surgery 6-7 hours, after 8-9 hours. My doctor told me that this should resolve itself after 12 weeks or so.
