Postpartum Sex!

Judgement free zone!! How long did everyone wait to have sex with their partner again following giving birth? Do you regret how soon or long it took you to get back in the sheets?

6 weeks…I felt ready then, but I had had a c-section so wanted to give myself time. It was weird to start with but now we’ve found the adjustments needed it’s amazing!

Mine was 6-7 weeks after, just go with the flow, you’ll know in yourself if you’re ready

I waited 7 weeks as I had a c section luckily my partner was so understanding

I hope this isn’t too personal a Q but with newborns…given they aren’t supposed to go into their own room for the 1st 6mths of life so basically they’re in your room…how are couples being intimate w/o disturbing their child/ren?

@Incognito wait until she’s asleep and she sleeps right through ☺️

6 weeks with 2nd degree tear, felt ready and it was absolutely fine.

Still haven’t at 4 months, had a 4th degree tear which had issues for 3 months so it’s taking me some time to get used to the idea tbh! My husbands also I think quite scarred from the whole experience and seeing me go through recovery

Had a vaginal birth and had sex 2/3 weeks after birth, wasn’t that comfortable at first but got better 😊 x

5 1/2 week after my c section. It was when I had stopped bleeding. Felt ready before but I’m not one to have sex when I’m bleeding. At no point did it feel uncomfortable 😊

@Incognito when she’s asleep in her next to me or while she’s in the Moses basket downstairs. Just hope and pray she doesn’t wake up and start crying 😂 It is only a quickly now

5 months pp and still did not have any sex! Relationship has been a coaster roller and did not help me wanting to have sex
