embarrassing i know, but how long post op til sex?

[mommybo 71]

I went to my pre op testing and classes today and they did not mention how long after it will be ok to have sex. My husband went with me and he whispered it to me during the class but I was too embarrassed to ask int front of the other people. Was anyone told this during their post op discharge instructions?? Thank you. :wub:

My doctor told me to wait 1 week, but I still felt like crap after 1 week. I ended up waiting 2 weeks and could have waited longer had my husband not been so pitiful.

Luckily, I had a one on one pre-op. They said as early as 2 weeks out from surgery. That being said I am 2 1/2 weeks out & have had my period for the past 9 days. I think it has something to do with all the estrogen being dumped into my system. Anyway, I was told 2 weeks & just go easy for awhile. Hope this helps.

LOL. So my answers are. . .one week. . .two weeks. . .and three weeks. Sounds like it is ok whenever I feel up to it. Good to know, thank you.

I asked my Dr's nurse and she said whenever I felt like it, but just don't try any acrobatics. We waited 4 days and did the old scissors routine. I think that would work for either boy or girl.

Had surgery monday dec 10th, was discharged from hospital Wednesday dec 12th and was told I'm clear for driving and sex.

Now my body on the other hand says "oh Hell no!" I'm a bit tender still lol

I was told as soon as I was comfortable, tried at 1 week and I was still to sore, But I was good to go by 2 weeks, about the same time I was able to sleep on my side again.
