Did anyone else have trouble sleeping after a tummy tuck? I’d really appreciate any advice on what might have helped.

I’m currently 8 days post-op, and I’ve only been sleeping about 5.5 hours a night since the surgery. I find it hard to fall asleep, and I wake up multiple times during the night. I’m not sure if it’s the pain, the awkward sleeping position, the uncomfortable compression garment, or something else, but I’m getting exhausted.

I’d really appreciate any advice or even just some reassurance!
