We waited almost 2 weeks. No issues. We have sex often and always have. I think I feel more confident now so it's been better.

My Dr. Also said as soon as I feel up to it. (He didn't mention my husband may be up to it.. before I was even considering it...) I am 2 weeks out... and the last few days my husband and I have had sex twice. Heading into TMI area... but being honest... first time... I was a little nervous, afraid he might hurt me with too much weight on my abdomen, so I held his body up with my hands a little... Second time, I was on top, so no pain or pressure on my stomach. Just a thought ladies and gents... kinda private and embarrassing,.. but a real question deserves a real answer. We didn't go through all this so our spouses and significant others wouldn't want us... this is a good thing. Its nice to be loved, just be careful.

My doctor advises to wait 3 weeks. I waited until 2. My husband never complained to me about my weight, but since I have lost over 30 pounds, it is more frequent. Hope this helps.

I'm hoping I get some sort of desire for sex back.... 3 weeks until surgery and I've had sex maybe twice in the past 3 weeks.....

After surgery, did you find that your sex life got better as you got thinner or did it become non existent?

How long should a person wait before having sex after Surgery?

3 weeks down, and I think it was around day 10 when we started to have sex...this past week though has been GREAT, getting back to my old self really works for my wife. So yeah, if you are ready go for it!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
