HI all.....I wanted to ask some of those ahead of me in the recovery process......how long before you think it is safe to sleep in a bed? Ive been sleeping in a recliner since surgery and don't want to try our bed before its safe and wont put strain or pressure on my unhealed sternum. I know it takes about 12 weeks for the sternum bone to naturally fuse back together and heal and I don't want to do anything to delay healing or interfere with a nice straight fusion of the bones. I'm only at 2 weeks and 3 days as of now and I appreciate any of your opinions. Thanks all and stay well..........Michael
