How long did you wait after surgery until you had sex? My husband is getting antsy lol.....

I'd highly wait till after you got out of the hospital {ba-doomp-tish}!

But seriously folks, it's whenever you feel up to i. As far as abdominal surgeries go the laproscopic VSG is pretty small and has a quick recovery. Wait till YOU feel like it then go slow. A week or better would probably be about right.

There is an entertaining thread in the MAN ROOM sub forum on this topic. I thought it was the only topic there for a long time - it seemed to always be the one last responded to.

I think the responses range from a few days to a few weeks. Depends on how long you were in the hospital, any side effects - but primarily how soon you feel well enough for the fun and games. The only concern is you don't want to tear anything or pop stiches.

My god woman! There's other ways to make him smile! If you feel fine do it. If I remember my doctor never cut anywhere near that area.

I waited two weeks. Go gett'um tiger!

I waited 3 weeks to the day because that is what my doc said LOL and not a day more damnit!

4 weeks for me.

Day 6 for me, and I initiated it

I was wondering the same thing!!!!! Thanks for posting!

I was after my husband three days after surgery! My surgeon told me that my only restriction was that I couldn't lift anything heavier than 25 lbs . . . so . . . I just didn't try to pick him up!

I think it was 6 days, but I was able to be very lazy - no straining that early out!!

2 days for me.........although I have to admit, I didnt put much effert into it for myself, was more for him...hehehe but it was no problem, he was gentle.

LOL. My fiance has been doing some research about the sleeve on his own and came up with SIX MONTHS! We did it the night before surgery, so i´m not going to tell him it can be a lot sooner. I¨ll just see how i feel lol...ssssshhhhhhh!

haha....i posted the same question right before my surgery! i was able to resume about 4 days after. i wasnt soar at all by then and it was great! lol

when you arent soar i would say try it out and see. i would be careful of the freaky stuff though lol

We asked this question at the pre-op appointment and my surgeon said as soon as I got home from the hospital, I was like REALLY????

Anyhoo, still waited 2 weeks until I felt somewhat normal again

There are a lot of ways that don't cause discomfort. There is no reason to wait if you aren't uncomfortable.
