Least give it the two weeks for strenuous activity lol :)

I was told by my surgeon that as long as i feel comfortable to go for it. He said a week or two...i kind of scared because i have to go off BC two weeks before and then three weeks after i can start it again.

I was told as soon as it was confortable, for me personally that was about 2 weeks.

10 days was all I could handle it. My husband is super gentle and he did not hurt me at all. It was great :) my Dr. says whenever you feel comfortable, that comes sooner for some people.

I was told to wait for 40 days. I have read that others have done it sooner but the doctor want to make sure that I didn't do any movement that could cause any problems. So we wait for full sex and I just did my part to keep him happy. I know TMI. I just want you to know that it was worth it because I went back in with a very bad infection and then I got my period. So by the time we did it I was 30 lbs less. Since then he can not keep his hand off me.

I waited 10 days and then couldn't take it. I think seeing myself losing all this weight has made my confidence a lot higher and I have been much "happier to see him" lately than I was before.
