I don't think I'd do roller coasters so soon. So much throwing your body around, I just wouldn't trust it. But check with your doc. ????

My doctor told me at my 1 week appointment that I was fine to do activities as I felt comfortable. She specifically mentioned roller coasters. She did say no swimming though due to infection risk. I say DO IT and enjoy yourself!!!

If you feel up to it, I think you'll be ok. Drink lots of water because you'll probably be walking around in the heat all day. I went to 6 flags with no issue, but I was 3 months out.

I agree with Angel - I'd be very careful - the safety harnesses, safety bars etc on roller coasters might not be good for your stomach with all that throwing around. Check with your doctor.
