Should be OK.
The safe answer I give my own patients is to wait until you're at least six (6) weeks out from surgery. However, ALWAYS ask your own surgeon first! He or she may be more liberal or strict than what I outlined. I hope you've had a good surgery and recovery thus far! Take care. Nirav B.

You may be able to sleep in your side after 4 weeks of your surgery
