    I was 6 weeks post op when I had a proper soak,even then I was scared to put products in the water for fear of causing problems with my incisions,but im the worlds worst worrier when its my health,so I did’nt soak for too long,looked forward to the soak for weeks,did’nt really enjoy it to be honest.xxx

    I had my 1st proper bath at 10days PO and have been having them ever since – I’m almost 5wks PO now!

    I guess it depends on how well you’re healing – the only thing was that the nurse told me not to use any scented soaps/bubble bath/shower gel etc.
