OK, for those of you who have had the surgery - how long did you have to wait to become intimate with your partner post-surgery?

Whoo... whole new meaning to "heated garage" in CO, huh?

[n40066]

get creative, girl!  ya got a garage?  lol  and a car?

Oh - I could just imagine the look on my kids face waking up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom - having to walk through the kitchen - and seeing that LOL! OR my mother since she lives with us - oh man - I COULD imagine my moms look! HA HA HA HA HA

[n40066]

pillow on kitchen counter, bend over, face on pillow, enjoy!  do i have to teach you kids everything???  lol

[denverluv]

Too funny. We waited a month because I just couldn't lay flat for a while, and even then I couldnt lay propped up. When we did, I was ok at first, but the "motion" LOL - kept pushing my head into the pillow and it really started hurting, and afterwards my head really hurt for a couple of days on my incision and inside my incision. I would say we didn't go back to really great - uh - alone time - untill about a month ago, when I could finally put my body however I wanted. Even before that, if we layed side to side, just having "THE BIG MOMENT" :) made me have a HA.  Um - we found out too that for me to - ok how to put this- treat him right - he would have to stand next to me. Just picture that LOL - or maybe you don't want to LOL - anyway. :)

[LisaM46]

I'm happy it was well received - we're all here for each other, right?

Really though, after all these posts, I'm quite shocked that Lizzy didn't bring it up first!

I'm glad someone asked because I was wondering this myself ;)

[selmaS]

LMAO...I was going to say something too...but I am shy...hahaha.....could be y we didn't discuss this b4.....but she did say something  like that didn't she...lol.....

I do know we did discuss the fact that a few of us have tilted pelvis's and uterus's...but we did not go into the more specific's of it all....lol....

"selma"

[LisaM46]

Well... I DID check the archives first to see if the issue had been discussed before - no luck!  It is an interesting topic, huh?

Thanks for all the fun!  Lizzy - what did you say about jumping on another body??

Lisa

[pr1nsis]

i like that cmoeller - 'a very interested husband'  - thats a great way to look at it...  better than the eye rolls we woman give sometimes!!  :)

[*Stormy*]

LMAO...it wasn't me that was frisky...I am blessed with an very interested husband!

So Lisa, we will be waiting for the announcement LOL

Seriously though, it really is a good question :)

Carolyn

[n40066]

it's good to lighten the load every once in a while!!  : )

[pr1nsis]

This was a question I had on my 'list' for the doctor but would never ask it!!  we waited about 3 1/2 weeks after!!  

Like they all said - listen to your body - if you can - great - if you can't... you will when you're ready!!  

(I like that this is much 'lighter' than some of the other stuff too!!)

[n40066]

don't know, but i'll keep my mask nearby!   just in case   lol  wouldn't mind having another body to jump into right about now!  

[LisaM46]

Partner in crime... I like it   ; )

But all of this banter makes me wonder - Is someone trying to kick the lid off Pandora's box JUST FOR FUN?!

[n40066]

ahhhhh!  a true worthy partner in crime!  welcome, dear lisa!!!!  welcome!!!!  lmao!

[selmaS]

LMAO........ : )

[LisaM46]

I'll let you know how long it takes for me to feel well enough to "bare my complications"!

[selmaS]

U r a part of the group for sure now....lol.....knowing Lizzy she meant baring....hahaha

Ray will be sad indeed : )

Goodness Carolyn...must be ur age that u r soooooo frisky.....lol.....

Lisa.....no details , but u will need to let us know how long till it "works" : )

[LisaM46]

I was going to guess about two months.  You guys are too funny!  Silliness is always refreshing.  It's part of what I love about this group.  Sounds like Ray will be sad he missed out on the fun.

Talk about frisky - Carolyn... 1 & 1/2 weeks?  Very brave!

Elizabeth.. when you said "baring complications" instead of "barring" was that pun intended?  lol... perfect!  (Is that what they call it these days?!)

Lisa

[n40066]

i still stand by my first comment...we are all different.  you will know when the time is right for you.  but..............you DO REALIZE, that now you will have to let us all know when the big day arrives, right lisa??  lol!  i think we should start a pool......i give them 2 wks at best, baring complications, of course!

[*Stormy*]

We tried after about 11/2 weeks and it did NOT go well. I had way too much head pain at that point and ANY movement just propelled it into being unbearable. For your own sake...wait the same amount of time as you would wait after a c-section...at least 4 weeks!!!

Carolyn

[selmaS]

Ray is at his sister's ...and there is no internet there...he should be home soon......I know I think he take on this thread would be funny indeed : )

and I am  not making light of ur issue either Lisa...just that Lizzy , Ray and I can get silly at times : )
