I cannot sleep after hip replacement surgery.

I had hip surgery a week or so ago, and was told by the doctor that I cannot sleep on my side, which is my natural sleeping position. I have tried sleeping on my back, but am getting no sleep whatsoever. I have been told that I can sleep with a pillow between my legs, but I am worrying about hip displacement as the pillow keeps slipping out of place. Please help!

I have just read through some of the comments on here that were posted since I originally asked the question. I bought a Slumber Support after reading tacgirls advice. I have now had it for ages, and it's made such a difference because I can sleep! I, like daffy, was a bit hesitant when it came to ordering such a "miracle" device, but it works!
