 Topic: Lap Surgery & BDing
Posted: 08 February 2011 at 5:51pm |
Im having Lap surgery next week eeeek. Ive had one before in 2007 but wasnt ttc then so urgency on bding wasnt a problem  .
The problem I now have is AF arrived today (earlier than I wanted) making me CD10 on the day of my surgery, I generally get positive OPKs anywhere from CD12-14 so im guessing this month is out. Does anyone know how soon after a lap you can BD? I dont think ill get to see my gynae before the lap and not sure if I see her afterwards on the day either.
This may sound selfish but I dont want to miss my chance this month as DH and I have decided we wont be trying in march as we dont want a baby due round xmas (we dont think its fair on the child to be born then) which then means not trying until april which seems sooooo far away.
After ttc for 17months patience is not my strong point

Hey CurlySue, to be honest BDing was the last thing I felt like doing after a lap for about two weeks. You may be completely different but see how you feel  I don't recall my specialist ever giving me a time frame. How did you feel after your last one?

Hey LR, from memory for the first couple of days after the last one i didnt feel that great, thought it may have been worse because I ended up having a laporoptomy which is quite a big incision. To be honest i recovered quicker after my ceaser than I did after that.
Maybe wishful thinking of me to get atleast one bd in this cycle then

Im the same as Sal, didnt feel like it for a few weeks after. I was actually sh*t scared TBH!! But if you are feeling ok then there should be any issues. Just be careful of the stitches.

Ok so TMI coming up, what about if you really don't feel like BD and you get your DP/DH to do his thing on his own then get a brand new syringe (no needle of course, like a big one of what you measure baby's medicine with) then squirt it up there, that might not hurt so much and you will still have a chance of getting UTD.

Wow thanks for the suggestion BriandOlisMum, I didnt even know you could do that. Might have to do some research on the net.

I would say that anything that got the swimmers up to your cervix would work.
you can buy syringes from payles plastics or the pharmacy

You could just get your DH to do his thing then when he's, err well, ready, put it slightly inside your cervix (as in very shallow penetration so it doesnt hurt or be uncomfortable) and let the little swimmers go that way.
