k-statearmywife 6 Posted November 17, 2009 I'm almost 2 weeks post-op and I've been beggin my husband...but he won't give in because he thinks he'll hurt me! lol. Is it painful? Different in any way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gatorgal 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I think we waited about a week. He can't hurt you unless he's worried about the incisions. I say have fun trying it new ways! The more you lose, the more you may want to experiment anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jenfromtheburgh 0 Posted November 17, 2009 For me it was day 5, the first couple of times I just had to be careful around the port area, not to have any pressure. After that, it was fine. No problems at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junbug178 0 Posted November 17, 2009 Awww, Day 2 for me. Granted my wife did most of the work. :w00t: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PrincipalsOffice 16 Posted November 17, 2009 I'm so glad someone asked this! I've been wondering too, but too shy to ask! Of course, my boyfriend isn't too shy to ask me EVERY DAY - "how long do we have to wait??" haha! I guess it just depends on the pain/pressure, but glad to see it's not WEEKS! :w00t: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Threeboys3 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I waited about 2 weeks, until my port area was completely healed. Listen to your body, if you feel fine enough than go for it. :w00t: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rottie69 4 Posted November 17, 2009 UGH, my poor husband! At my 2 week post-op visit I asked the Doc if it was normal to have NO sex drive. She said sometimes surgery will affect ppl that way but I should be back to normal in no time. It was 3 weeks before I had any desire to have sex, my poor hubby was about out of his tree. LOL, I felt so bad for him. I didnt have any pain at all. BUT after 3 weeks ,LMAO it didnt last that long. Poor hubby.:redface: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happy2lose 0 Posted November 18, 2009 Day 4 for me. I'll tell you though, it gets better as I get thinner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pumpkin10 0 Posted November 18, 2009 I had sex about a month after and I was banded in July, but after I have sex my port area is sore! Does this happen to anyone else?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessicakolman 3 Posted November 18, 2009 I'm kind of a prude. Since being on antidepressants it had for sure decreased my sex drive. My poor husband:( The last thing I want to do is have sex when I'm in this much pain as it is. But if I do, I think I'm going to wait at least 2 weeks.

Janiece 64 Posted November 18, 2009 I think we made it 4 days. I put pillows under my hips to make it a better angle so he wouldn't lean over me and rub on my port. :redface: sorry if TMI . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
