my husband is in iraq and when he come back in april we will probably have alot of sex...lol.. sorry to be blunt if i offended anyone... does it effect anything... or do i have to wait for a certain amount of time;...:biggrin:

Get out the trapeze and show him what losing weight has done for your sexual appetite! :biggrin:

The band has totally set my sex drive on fire... it was hot already, but man, feeling better about myself has done wonders! That said, I had a 2 week period after banding I wasn't to have sex (i waited one week)>

my surgeon said wait 3 weeks,the only discomfort I have is after a fill the port site,so maybe a change in position if you know what I mean :biggrin:

My surgeon only asked that we wait to get out of the hospital room before getting busy. I had no pain or discomfort at all! I guess the only thing different is that my husband had a great view of my steristrips. On a side note, losing weight and exercising does WONDERS for flexibility :biggrin:)

No, the only thing that is a little uncomfortable for me is the jostling...lol. Just be gentle and it's actually quite nice :biggrin:

:biggrin: What they said.. plus there's a power room gone wild section of these forums that we do a lot of discussing of this exact thing.

My doctor only said wait until you feel up to it, just be gentle. I think we waited about a week or so.

Gosh, I think we waited a day or two :smile:) We're in our 20s afterall ) Then again, I never felt pain or discomfort after surgery, just a new pressure when I coughed, but that went away quickly.

Hi Shelby - small world eh? I was going to say that I hope you're someplace warmer now... then I looked as saw you're still in MI so you're suffering with the rest of us...

Gentle? Not a chance..... :wink:

Brad

WE waited a week. I've been telling him 6 weeks and he was kind of okay with that and said he'd torture me until our cruise in March. I didn't think I could handle that and apparently, I can't even handle a week! Haha

We were gentle. He's freaked out about hurting me!

oh it's been great lol. since the weight loss, i've been in some of the craziest positions and kama sutra, and even switched positions with him still inside of me, that was crazy. i was like.. WHOA, where you taking that leg, sir? lol. things get a lot easier and you're even able to move your arms/hands/fingers into places you wouldn't have been able to before, during these times. :thumbup:
