Hey All - I have been nervous to wear jeans, thinking it will mess with my stomach.

How long post op before you should wear jeans?

I had a pair of stretch denium with an elastic waist. I wore them less than 1 week after surgery.

I haven't yet tried on tailored pants.

as long as they're not tight on your belly, you should be fine, Harold. If you're uncomfortable, take them off. (not in public)

I second what Monica says, and just remember, if they are not tight at all, they may come off in public advertently.

Then you will have people talking!!

I am almost 3 weeks post-op and just put on my jeans Saturday. It's whatever makes you comfortable. My jeans sit below the incisions but when I sit down, I pull them over them as they seem to be sitting right on them if I don't. No pain, just a little bothersome. Give it a try and if you're not comfortable, wear something that is!

LOL ladies! You guys crack me up! I agree, nothing too loose as you don't want them around your ankles in winter! A long coat can save you!
