Did you teach yourself to sleep on your back before surgery?

@MammaT the good news about side sleeping with the pillows is that is how I sleep now, and have for several months. My hip and knee hurt without the pillows. Sometimes my top leg does sneak forward a bit, even with the pillows, so that’s why I’m a bit cautious about trying that too soon after surgery. But I’m guessing that lack of sleep will have me reconsidering pretty quickly. I haven’t tried putting an additional pillow behind or in front of me, maybe that will help.

When I try the side sleep I’m putting body pillow behind me.
