dear Jill: i dont know your body shape but if it is feasible try sleeping with a bra on.
all the other suggestions are good too .
Also check with your doctor if you could use any sleep aide medicines.

hi all
i posted about a month ago looking for ways to prep for my OHS and everyone was so helpful! The good news is the surgery went great and I've been home for two weeks already. The surgeon was super happy with how it went. Operation was first thing Monday AM and I went home at 2pm Thursday.
It was an... interesting experience being in there with no visitors or family support but, the nurses did a wonderful job taking care of me. And I was able to text and FaceTime.
Generally feeling good, walking as much as I can in the hot SoCal heat (lots of indoorlaps).
Really the biggest challenge has been sleeping and sitting comfortably. My shoulders get *so* tight! I think it's one of those things where each person is different so there's no magic fix. Boy do I wish there was! I can't wait for the day when I can just flop on the couch or sleep however I want!
Anyways, grateful to be on this side of the surgery - thanks again for all the help.
