Are there specific rules to follow once the VSG has been done? Does your sex life have to change (in a bad way) such as positions, etc? I am having the VSG done a week from tomorrow and my husband is asking me these questions that I have no clue about... Advice please??

You will need a little recovery time, but not too much.  Less than 2 weeks for us, but perhaps a little longer for most.  Change?  Oh yes.  And it is all good.  Your hubby is going to love the change, and so will you :O)

Awesome! I am relieved to hear. I wasn't sure if certain positions had to be cut out due to the procedure or what. Thanks a lot!!

It took about 6 wks for everything to get back to normal.  In agreement with hollykim -- if it feels good do it.

I think they prefer you wait till you get home and not do it in the hospital.....
