Did it kill the "seks"?

Im surprised my partner has been so understanding considering hes 24, most lads at that age are immature and the deed is the only thing on there mind. Im very surprised haha. But grateful haha. Im glad your partner understands and my advice, just ease yourself in, if your not ready, dont force it, could end up damaging something and how fun would that be to explain to A&E/doctor hahaha 😉😉

You have a very special young man there Sarah, time will come 

Oh I'm past caring if I had to explain, would just come straight out with it, once I hit 50yrs my inhibitions flew out the window. lolol  I will talk about anything lol Just have to go by the hip, it'll tell me.

Im terrified of my new hip haha. Dont want to do anything it it incase something goes wrong haha. Then again atm im struggling to even open my legs to clean myself at toilet (rank yes i know, i am clean though 😂). Actually is that normal haha?

Yes it is normal, especially when youre in the sitting position , if no one minds me being a bit graphic , i half stand to do it and its easier . Its easier re opening legs when on your back - all that practice sleeping like that with 2 pillows between them lol. We have ' done the deed ' but gently and very very carefully ,(  im 8 weeks post op )but it was like that after my op two years ago and we did eventually get back to - not quite - swinging from chandeliers ! Does take an understanding partner though . I split with my ex 10 years ago so was on my own when had first hip op - so things like ths weren't a consideration . Been with my current partner for 7 years - we are both mid fifties and i am very lucky that he has been very sympathetic around it all , dealing with me going through two further surgeries -  my ex would have been totally non understanding and not at all supportive xx 

I have been half standing when doing it but my legs dont seem to want to. Or maybe dont know how to yet haha. And im glad your partner understands. Me and my partner have to get past this and my shoulder surgery haha. Xxxx

Lol, I was a sister / senior nurse in A and E for 10 years and believe me i,ve heard / seen far worse and disturbing stories than someone dislocating a new hip having a bit of hanky Panky! - we.d probably just have given you three cheers for trying ! Xxx

If he stays and gets you past it then hes a keeper - sounds like he is anyway! Xxxx

Haha well when i broke it he sat for 7 hours in a&e with me so i think we will get past both of these. He understands my condition and he has his own health issue so iv sat in hospital plenty of times with him haha. For 5 hours every 8 weeks 😂

You obviosly are both very supportive of each other , which is a lovely thing xxxxxx

Hahaha yup. So hes been sent out for a night out with his friends and iv just had to buy some presents for my little babies (my pets) as i havent been able to interact with them as much haha xxxx

Still early days yet Sarah. I think that's why I have been extra careful these last 10 weeks, still see doc on Tuesday so hope everything cleared then.

I found the cleaning difficult to start with, I didn't know how to do the back end (sorry if too much information) because I used to sit and twist right back. I found I had to stand and go on slight tip-toe (op side) to do the deed.

Your meant for each other Sarah, very caring towards each other.

Sex is perfectly natural, just to talk about it does not mean you have a dirty mind lol  It's a pity more people are not more open about things, especially if they are embarrassed by it.  Anything for that matter, not just sex, bowel cancer etc I'm a big believer in people talking about these things, break down the barriers.

Totally - we're all grown-up on here, and we all like a bit of luvin with our nearest and dearest.

Graham - 🚀💃

Too right lol
