It took me a good week to be able to sleep more than 3 hours or so at a time!!! It sucked, but I just used that time to walk and get my fluids in...................and spend time on here!!!

It could be related to some of the medications you are taking. Try to get super comfortable in bed, maybe put a big pillow between your legs as you lay on your side. Mostly, like everyone said, just know that it will get better and better!

Post op day 6 for me and I found that if I prop myself up and lay on my side I get more sleep. Last night I propped my stomach so that I would not be tempted to lay on my stomach. I always sleep on my stomach. So I have about 10 pillows in the bed with me at one time and last night was the first night at home I slept good without cramps.
