Sleepin in a chair

Didn't mean to freak you out, Pezo. Deep breathing is more to encourage you to expand your lungs while you are in post-op stages, for a couple of days, to avoid pneumonia. Especially for those who've had major surgery that has them laid up in the hospital for a couple of days. My surgery required me to stay over night. I also had a complication of a hiatal hernia that needed repair and taking deep breaths for the night was sore at first, but now I'm better and I'm 4 days post. You will do fine!!!

o.k. I woke up with a bad crick n my neck from chair sleeping so this morning I decided to try my waterbed (didn't consider anything but getting some restful zzzzz's) and it was awesome I loved my waterbed when I was pregnant cuz it moves around you.....An guess what getting out was just fine because of the wooden side rails I could grab to assist me in exiting....woo who.....but I won't be sleeping in it at night because I will keep my hubby up with all of my snoring but it is good to know that I can crash for a few hours of GOOD sleep......
