When can I have sex after my breast augmentation?

kelko530
I am 57, 175 pounds and 5 days PO after receiving 650/700 cc round, smooth silicone implants. This was a bi-lateral replacement breast re-augmentation from saline to silicone. My husband and I have always had a very active sex life and he is anxious to resume again. Can you please tell me when the appropriate time is that you can have sex after BA? How much pressure can he use before I should worry about rupture? And, if we do have sex too early, what is the effect on the implants?
