Sex three weeks out

[Devylynne 0]

:biggrin: OK so the doctor said wait three weeks for sex- I did exactly that 3 weeks and 1 day actually. Today I feel so horrible- my stomach hurts really bad around the port sight and I think I may have overused my muscles??? Has anyone else experienced this?

My doctor said 4-6 weeks. I waited a full 8 weeks and still had a little port pain. Every doctor is different, hope you feel better!!

I'm glad I read this, I'm 10 days post op and was thinking about it. Now I think I'll wait a bit longer..

my doc said no restricitons...just go with what I feel. the port site is probably still healing, and you may have stretched the muscles.

I only made it 4 days. No problems.

I made it ten days and it was great!

Wow, I didn't have any restrictions. I lasted 4 days without. Although, I found different positions to be more comfortable at the port site than others. Good luck!

My doc said I could have sex when I felt up to it. We waited 3 or 4 days. No pain!

I guess everyone heals at a different rate. I was to have sex about 10 days post op with no problems. Maybe try some more comfortable positions?

Damn all you rabbits!! 4, 10 days post op?? I was still miserable at that point. :thumbup: However, I am 10 weeks post op now and my port still is uncomfortable during sex. I've tried all positions and it doesn't help. It's not horrible, but definitely a distracting ache. So I have to focus on NOT showing the hubby it is bothering me. I'm sure it will get better. I try not to contract abdomen as much. Although I've only lost a little under 30lbs....it is noticeable in bed. Don't mean to give TMI...but I'm loving it:blush:

Yes I had the same thing happen, but I was hurting so bad I ended up at the hospital. Once I got to the er they did a x-ray and said everything was ok just take it easy. I wanted another 3 weeks and it has been smooth sailing from there. Take it slow and easy for a while and it will all work out.

I haven't been willing to try sex just yet. DH is getting anxious. But one of my incisions isn't closing up as it should (not my port incision) and I am having to pack it daily and it is a bit tender. I haven't even asked my doctor about this, in spite of my husband urging me to so ASAP LOL.

This is something I forgot to ask my doctor about, so decided to base it on how I felt. I was ready in 2 weeks, but my hubby was so apprehensive, and for another two weeks he kept telling me he was afraid he'd hurt me. I finally had to tell him that I was going to hurt HIM if he didn't give me a little. It was toooo long to wait for me.
