I had my lap on 18th December and was told 2 weeks but I think it all depends on how much work you had done and when you feel ready. Hope you recover soon x

My Dr didn't either I think its for us to use our own judgement rather than them to tell us, depends how full on your surgery was too, we waited 8 days but took it easy. Probably would of been ok sooner than that x

I was told a minimum of two weeks and to wait until any bleeding from the lap stopped.

Thank you very much ladies. I've been told a month I called today. I've now been told that I will never be more fertile than I am now so maybe I should think about trying. Been with my boyfriend over four years now so we are very excited. Hope all you ladies are well xxx
