Sex-yep, im going there...

So my surgeon told me no sex for 4 weeks. I never questioned it because hubby and I have a blended family and rarely have a moment alone. Now, we have found ourselves kid less for a night and I'm trying to figure out why we can't! I can understand staying away from force on my stomach but hey, there is more than one way to have sex! ;). Your thoughts? I'm 2 1/2 weeks post, by the way, and have no soreness whatsoever anymore.

This cracked me up!!!!

OMG I have some awesome ER horrors of how sex landed ppl in the ER. Spent over 10 years as an ER nurse. Makes for good story telling.

Same here.

I cant remember how long we waited...not too too long but i know for thec1st week i just slept. When we did indulge we were very careful & mellow about it early on. Better safe than sorry!

I can only imagine-too funny!!!

I didn't really receive instruction, but it was probably 2 to 2 1/2 weeks. No real issues, but my abs felt like I did 100 crunches the next day :)
