The wife went to sleep with a big smile on her face last night (so did I).
Day 24 ;D
You hippy STUD!
;D
Mudpro,
Wow...my wife thinks my scar looks like a shark bite. I didn't get the sense it was a turn-on. I'll have to charm her I suppose...It will become my mission to beat your record...Day 24, huh?

I either can't count or can't type, you decide... Day 34 ??? ;D
Typical concrete guy, can't count or type. LOL Sorry but you set yourself up for that one besides I'm a concrete guy also so I'm allowed.

Glad to hear the hips are all working fine along with the rest of your recovered bodies ;D
Mudpro,
Charm worked....15 days, a new North American Record! I told you I was competitive.

Todd.... you get the "hippy stud" award.
Unless your days are wrong?
:D

I counted on my fingers and toes and still had one foot left to go, so I'm sure it is 15 days. I've poured slabs before, but wouldn't call myself a concrete guy. Records are meant to be broken...Terry?
Guys.
Thnx for the inspiration. It's Day 16 and I was happy to learn that everything is still in fine working order. The steri strips do dampen the eroticism however,
Funny, only the guys chimed in on this one! I remember the occupational therapist told me when it's time, to only take the "passive position". Is that what you all did? Did you make the ladies work or did you do the work?
We started out with the wife on the side of the bed with me standing, but then we progressed to her on top, that's fun I was always tired of doing all the work anyhow so it was like a vacation for me for a few months.
Now with my new hippie anything is possible I'm like I was when I was in my 20s now. ;D

Does having my catheder removed count as sex?
Side by side works well until the crutches get tossed. After that many things are possible, but I wouldn't recommend sitting back on your heals unless you have great confidence in her balance and strength.

LOL - I suppose that depends on the method they used :-)
The HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery) distributed a manual for hip replacement and hip resurfacing patients during a pre-surgery class. About 15 patients attended. One chapter showed the do's and don'ts of various sexual positions for male or female, operated and unoperated. No, they didn't show a operated patient having sex with another operated patient.

Day 24 ;D
Let me get this right??? You waited 24 days before having sex??
After my first hip resurfacing i waited .... lets see mmmmm untell she got me home. Day 3.
After my second hip resurfacing i waited ... lets see mmmm untell she got me home. Day 4.
If there is a will ... THERE IS A WAY!!!!
I feel kind of funny chiming in on this one but I feel the need to give hope to my fellow female surface hippy's to be. I had my left hip resurfaced on Monday July 27th with Dr. Schmalzried in Los Angeles :). I was home from the hospital on Wednesday the 29th. The following Monday, August 4th I was able to be a wife to my husband again, although I wasn't as active a participant due to some restrictions. However, a few days later I was just about back to normal. No one was more surprised than I was!!!
Hey I'm right up there with you,as a woman and a wife,I had my THR done on august 11th and by August 20th I was able to be a wife to my husband in that sense also. Nobody could have convinced me before surgery that I would be feeling this great so soon. I waited 5 years to have this done because I am fairly young (42) and I feel better than I have in years.Watch out hubby I'm back and better than ever.HeHeHe.(Yes, a little bragging on my part)
Day 14. right BHR on 9/29/2009; had relations with my wifey on 10/13/2009.
I was in pretty good shape before the surgery and my recovery has been quite fast.
Just like riding a bike.
I had relations with a nurse two days post op!
She pulled my catheter out! Ouch!! :o
Hi Gav,
I realize that this is way off of your original topic, but I noticed at the bottom of your post that you said that you had an "uncemented ASR". Historically, the ASR has used "hybrid" fixation; uncemented cup, and cemented femoral cap. If you had a totally uncemented ASR, I think that would be big news in the resurfacing world. Could you confirm whether your ASR was uncemented, and if so, any other information on this.
I asked the surgeon if it would be uncemented, and he said yes. I think he meant the cup though. I just asked some of the questions from the list on this side. At that time I didn't know enough about it. So I'm presuming that all cups are uncemented, and caps are cemented?
Hi Gav,
It's amazing how quickly we get to understand about re-surfacing and the different models being used.
My understanding of cups is...ALL cups are press fit, cemented we used early in re-surfacing and they are not to be used because of the mid/long term complications.
I often wonder about the cap being cemented or not, I have a cemented cap but i can see how the cementless would work and which one is best in the long term.
Best wishes
Terry
Hi Gav,
You are right about pretty much all cups being uncemented. The vast majority of caps are cemented. Dr Gross in the US developed a cementless cap with Biomet, and has been installing hundreds of these for over two years now. Cormet has a cementless cap option, that is not getting a lot of use. Some people think that many manufacturers will eventually come out with cementless cap options, which is why your post showing a possible cementless ASR caught my attention.
