I asked my doc at my last pre-op appointment he said whenever you feel up to it....I waited until two weeks I was kinda milking it a little but didn't want to try to soon and actually hurt something.....and I was good I did however make my husband use extreme caution and if he was on my stomach too much I vocalized this. Take your time and yes if you are feeling like that still give it a few more days how far post op are you?

Yah, I can be a bit much at times, so the thought I might hurt something did cross my mind, so I'm gonna give it a few weeks or a least until I could get around with nooooo pain. Thanks for sharing your story it's appreciated.

You'll know if it doesn't feel right. I hope you are with a partner who understands what you are going through and is OK' date=' if you say, "Wait, something doesn't feel right", but lose the anxiety surrounding it. It really isn't a big deal. Just go nice and slow. You may actually enjoy it.

Ever hear of scissor position? Not a problem.[/quote']

Yah, I hear yah. Just being cautious I guess my doc told me today if I'm up tp it, I should go for it, just be easy about it thou lol

My doc said said whenever I feel like it. Hubby was being all cautious and patient. However I wasn't and got tired of waiting on him so I took advantage of him in the middle of the night after two weeks. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!

My doc said to wait at least a week or 2 and after that what feels alright. If it hurts don't do it, if it doesn't hurt do it! This applied to exercise as well. :)

4 days here. Just do whatever feels right and no swinging from the tightropes.

4 days ?!?!? Really? That would be fabulous but I just had surgery Wednesday and can barely even move around with out pain. I can't imagine having sex already.

About a week in my case. I had to hold my tummy still until about week 3 though, the shaking made me sore. Everything had to stay rather "vanilla" for about a month though.

My hubs doesn't want me now...says we've been together too long...so I doubt he'll want me IF my hormones go wacky (in a good way).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
