Amusement park after surgery

Any idea when it's okay to go to an amusement park after surgery? I am 6 weeks out.

Well, I made the mistake of going 5 days after surgery!! I didn't plan on riding rides just to pick up passes but of course, my young children wanted to ride everything! We stayed too long, it was too hot and I walked too much that day although I didn't ride any rides. However, with all that being said - I'm sure at 6 weeks, you'll do great! I think... if it hurts, don't do it. Just choose your rides selectively. Maybe ones that don't put a lot of pressure on your tummy.

Have fun!

Great thank you!

Going to Universal on Saturday I will be 2 weeks post op and I'm selecting easy rides but of course my 13 yr old daughter wants to go on everything I guess her dad will have to go on :)

5 days!!!!! I'm 8 days out and I can't even wipe myself! Haha

I went to Universal Orlando at 6 weeks post op for my daughter's b-day and rode everything, no problems. My biggest issue was finding food. We had lunch at Margaritaville, and I had shrimp, and then dinner at Boston Market on the way home. Sliced turkey was on the menu for dinner. :)
