My plan is very strict about this. It is 4 weeks out and even then have to be careful.

I would def wait a little while, you do not want to get caught up in the moment and cause any leaks or anything from being too erm 'vigorous' :D, also definitely ask your surgeon just in case they have strict guidelines :)

This question “comes up” all the time. I think the best response I have read is that generally they prefer you to wait until you are home from hospital

it’s fine after 3-4 weeks post op you can be on top to control the weight places on you and if your doing another position on all fours I tend to place a very soft small pillow to avoid pressure or rubbing. Just be safe, enjoy and no babies!!

I had no restrictions on sex after surgery! Topic never even came up. I think I was about a month out though my first time post op.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
