Lets Talk About S-E-X

IM only 5 days post op... But when is a good time to just do it? I feel like we could but I'm scared, I'm not a good judge of that subject considering we didn't wait very long to do the deed after our daughter. I looked through all my paperwork, all the docs notes just say when you're ready, but... I'm ready! Just frightened. Still pretty sore!

I wouldn't. Give yourself the 2 months healing! If he can't wait for your full healing...get a new guy.

TWO MONTHS......

I think I was two weeks post op. As I just didn't have the energy but as soon as I did I was doing it.

I'll probably make it to the weekend (around 10 or so days post op) before I attack my husband. LOL Intimacy is important to both of us. We are told whenever we are comfortable after 5 days.

Take it slow and have fun! :)

I love this site and the people on it. So much honesty!!!!!

Thanks, I'm not too worried about pregnancy, I have the mirena IUD, and a 1 year old.... That's enough birth control for me! Lol. And if I did get prego, I would take it as a beautiful and wonderful thing! People have gotten pregnant quickly, our bodies can do amazing things :)

I told my doctor I had the Mirena when we talked about birth control and sex. He said, just be careful as stranger things have happened. Hahah. Seeing as how we don't have kids yet, we would consider it a blessing as well.

I've had my mirena since we had my daughter 15 months ago, if I haven't gotten pregnant yet, then I think we're fine. I've done a lot more crazy things sexually before this sleeve that'd be not willing to try so quickly post op, so I think we're okay. But you're right, people can still get prego, everything's only 99.9% effective. Besides abstinence! And that's NOT my style! Lmao
