DP is due to have a vasectomy over the summer hols.
He's spoken at length to the doctor and clinic, also a few friends that have had it but there seems to be some vagueness about what he will actually be able to do in the few days-week post op. I think he'd like to believe that he just has to lie down and not lift a finger for a week but thats because a friend told him that he over did it and ended up with what looked like 2 aubergines stuffed down his pants
I'm thinking along the lines of the following during the first week:
-driving?
-sitting in a car for a long journey as a passenger? (as we're wondering about whether or not to go and stay with the in-laws afterwards but it involves a 2.5hr drive)
-pottering around at home involving some non-lifting/non-heavy tasks like cooking etc?
-general dealing with the DC (9 and 5 so not little ones)?
