Your doctor will tell you that when you are comfortable, go for it. Having just had the surgery last Monday, I'd wait two weeks.

My Doctor said not in the hospital please, we waited about 2 weeks, then put a pillow across my tummy.

At my two week check-up, my surgeon said I could start doing all exercises except crunches and sit ups. When he said aerobics were fine, I took that as a green light for sex.

;)

That was a very good question:P

2 weeks it is...

I went 9 days. My body felt I was ready. I was careful and it still felt funny but nothing hurt.

Shhhhhh!!! I told my husband 6 months! ;)

I had a longer recovery than most. I'm still a little sore sometimes 6 weeks post op. Week three, we were back in our groove.
