Hi Randi1,
I hope you can get some feedback from someone who has gone through a hip replacement but I can tell you that correct positioning post-surgery and Physical Therapy as soon as possible after the surgery are very, very important!
Here is some more info on what you should expect before, during, and after: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/hip-replacement/MY00235/DSECTION=what-you-can-expect
And some great guidelines to follow after the surgery:

I hope this helps a little!
