Default in my experience

The first couple of days...no i could not totally BEND over to "spit".

LIFTing the doc said 5 pounds....more like 2 pounds till about 2 weeks...then 5 tho not too high.
STRETCHING..no way laundry for a couple of weeks...that would take bending and lifting along with stretching...NO NO NO
TWISTING...not in bed...the first couple of days I slept where I fell in bed and then rolled out.
Mark has a good explaination for how to's in a previous thread.
Maybe we should have a devoted thread for this frequently asked question.

Your trial surgery is way different than the implant surgery.
hang in there...tons of advice on the way!! Pleanty of support also.
YES...Cling wrap and tape does work...that is what I did!!
