Hi @Marketta, I was allowed to be upright on day 5. I walked as soon as I got home increasing daily. I think it was about 4 weeks sleeping without pillows & 6 weeks on my side. I found my stomach was really tight & uncomfortable by night. Just take it slowly, you will get there, it is a long recovery.
