True. I think I'll be ok. I just remember last time I went , seeing a sign that said not to get on if you've had recent surgery . Thanks

I'd be really concerned about the bars hitting your abdominal area and damaging your incision sites. Just a thought. I was very protective of my abdominal area. :)

Check with your Dr. 3 weeks out is very early to be banging around your tender tummy and putting it through more than 1G force.

LusciousGold26- I never asked the dr . I went on them & was fine. I didn't get on any big crazy coasters , just small coasters . I went to Knotts Berry Farms, they don't have too many big ones.

I asked my doc when I was about three weeks out and he said it was fine. Just to mind my incisions and the lap bars, as someone mentioned. I didn't ride anything too big since it was Disney, but all was fine.

Ok thank you I'm at knotts right now lol

Thank you :)
