Actually, feel relieved - this question has been asked many times.

The concensus is "wait until you can do it comfortably".

Individual answers vary frm a few days to a few weeks. :)

I waited almost 2 weeks...of course he left on a business trip the 5th day out, and was gone for a week!!! We just adjusted positions to where he did not lay on my incisions---no problems then! They were probably tender and not ready for that for about a month or so.

Have fun!

Intercourse has not been a problem, but having an orgasm causes contractions of my abdominal muscles, which in turn causes pain. I'm 3 weeks post-op and orgasms still hurt. But so far it seems that that problem is unique to me. I haven't heard any other bandsters complain about that issue.

I was just wondering that today. My huny was asking about that today. I am due to have the surgery in a week. I have had a really bad and long period this month so he is not happy. I imagine the position also has something to do with how soon you can have “relations”.

I am so glad that I found this forum. I have gotten so many answers about things that I was embarrassed to ask. Not only do I get the answer, I have also learned that I am not the only one with some of these problems and concerns. It is nice to know that I am not the only one out there…:whoo:<o:p></o:p>

I really don't remember, but I can't imagine it was very long.

The goal was just to not put any pressure on my port.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
