Yes, I found the scheduling/admin a bit weird, I just used to sit up to do that stuff. My appointment has always been at the same time, so scheduling only happened every now and then. It got easier as time went on.
At the time, I felt that because I'd made the choice to lie down, I couldn't change my mind but I now I think that I could probably go with the flow a bit more and swap around. I don't know what he would think about that though. It's probably wise to give it a bit of time at the start as you say.
I experienced some very early body memories from laying down, which I'm sure I wouldn't have, had I been sitting in a chair.
Circumstances changed and it wasn't suitable for me anymore (I was heavily pregnant). I missed the closeness and intimacy of lying down but it was really nice to see him again.
