When, oh when will I be able to sleep on my side again?

This back sleeping is killing me. I've tried using a wedge and not using a wedge. I've tried supporting my belly with pillows. It hurts my stomach too much to sleep on my side and my hips hurt when I'm on my back too long. I am a roller and sleeping in one position is not working.

    It won't take that long. Try using a pillow underneath the side you are trying to sleep on. That's what I did and it reqlly helped.

I will take a several months but sleeping comfortably will slowly return to normal.

I slept on my side night 2 post op. I asked my surgeon and he said it was fine. Since about week 2 post op I sleep on my stomach.

Right side within a week, left side a little longer for me. I was kinda miserable as I'm a side sleeper.

Oops, I had the sleeve and didn't notice this was the bypass forum. Hope it happens soon. I'm a roller too lol
