I would like to know if it is safe to sleep on side as long as I keep knees bent? I have gotten very little sleep inclined:( Why do I have so much heartburn? Thanks

Answer: Sleeping after tummy tuck. I would say this is fine. Another way is to sleep with pillows under your knees for comfort (the main thing is to keep flexed at the waist).On the heartburn, this can be from a number of things. You abdominal muscles were tightened which puts pressure on your abdomen (the intent ... right) and can exacerbate a hiatal hernia. Also, the stress/medications may be causing increased acid production.I would recommend discussing these with your physician to gain their approval and get recommendations per their own guidelines.
