Sleeping Position

I hadn’t considered that I would be having this much difficulty with my current sleeping position.  I had figured out loads of stuff before my knee replacement but the issue of sleeping hadn’t entered my head.  Bottom line is I’m a side sleeper and sleeping on my back is totally foreign to me.  So I must be healing (even if the swelling isn’t going away very quickly) since I’m whining about this problem.  The first week after the operation I didn’t care but maybe it’s because I’m going to be starting week 3 tomorrow.
