Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Well, I bought those water proof bandaids, and they kept the water out when swimming. I also took it easy and didn't jump around until I was 2 weeks out. LOL. I also took my own staples out after 1 week because they were causing an allergic reaction.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Not a silly question... I am still waiting, but its not because I can't hahahaha. You have to decide when your body can handle it. It shouldn't be long after surgery, just take it easy. Shauna Meghan wrote: How long did you all wait to start having sex again?

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 I had the Lap procedure and it was like 8 or 9 days before we had intercourse. But, you know, there are other ways/body parts to satisfy those urges. There is always something about being told not to have sex that has always made my husband and I more hot for one another. Sorry, if TMI. Enjoy! Silly Question! :-) How long did you all wait to start having sex again? Just wondering? :-) Thanks! -Meghan , CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 RE: Sex.... LOL my man is going nuts! Tonight when I asked what he wanted for dinner (I was ordering out for him and the kids),, he said " ummmmmm...you!? " I had my surgery on Aug 31 and it was just this morning I could get myself out of bed. We have fooled around, but I haven't been in the mood too much yet. I hope it doesn't go too long.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 my surgeon said wait 2 weeks and no pregnancies for 12 - 18months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 The surgeon told me 36-38 months no pregnancies and my PCP said he didn't think a pregnancy would be supportable. I put off the surgery for a while because I needed to come to terms with the idea of no more kiddos. I only have one. Now I feel ready to deal with it. But your dr gave you a much shorter waiting period. --- leelee35_2000 wrote: > my surgeon said wait 2 weeks and no pregnancies for > 12 - 18months > > > > > __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Why did your pcp think that? I know people have had kids after surgery? WOW!! I was told no pregnancies for at least 1 year. But, I don't plan on anymore anyway so it wasn't an issue.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 My doctor said the same thing wait one year to eighteen months before trying to get pregnant. Because we are being malnourished to lose weight it is not a good time to get pregnant. After you have lost the weight you can get pregnant but you have to really watch your food intake; stay up on protein and avoid everything that puts weight on. > > > My doctor's group says not for 18 months after surgery, and that I would > need to have bloodwork first to make sure I am healthy.
