I tried to wait and couldn’t 😂
How long did we last? Did it hurt? I’m 4 weeks and just can’t wait any longer 😅
I’m c-section mumma so feel like it cd will be okay 😆
No it didn’t hurt, I didn’t tear or get cut just bruised and he knew not to be aggressive so no & I was also drunk lmao so it made it better
I would suggest not doing it bc of c-section, but if you do try not to use your lower abdominal muscles during
It’s not about hurting, it’s about getting an infection inside you. Where your placenta was attached is like a dinner plate sized open wound right now so they say 6 weeks to ensure that’s healed! Most likely would be okay but to me the risk is not worth it, just wait the next two weeks. You can still do outter stimulation just nothing inside!
I think we made it 5 weeks. But I had a very easy delivery, if that matters 😅
7 weeks, i had stitches and it definitely hurt the first few times. i imagine even with a CS it would still be sore.. it’s worth the wait in my opinion
I ended up having a epiostomy, it was sore after 6 weeks still but I couldn't wait much longer 🤣
My first attempt wasn't even until 3 months and it still wasn't comfortable 😅 we weren't able to successfully have sex until around 6 months both times postpartum
Around 7 months
2 weeks 🫣 xx
i made him wait almost 6 months because i was scared and very insecure in my new mom body. but i was also stitched wrong so it was super painful even after 6 months of healing. we’ve still only done it once and it makes him mad but i just can’t handle it

Like 4 / 4 1/2 weeks
A little before two weeks after 🫣
with a c section it's even more important to wait until you're cleared by your doctor, as you have more internal wounds that are healing aside from just the massive wound in your uterus
As soon as i left my 6 weeks appointment 🤧🤧
Still haven’t 9 weeks pp - I am still bleeding though
I couldnt wait, it was 4 weeks pp when we tried it was sore at first
a week 🧍🏼♀️
i only had to wait so long because i had 3 2nd and 3rd degree tares. and it took my body forever to heal because of complications of granulation tissue on the tares. ngl it was painful only because of scar tissue and still sometimes is tender to this day im 19months pp🫶🏼 everyone is different though!
2 weeks at most honestly I think it was less. I had a c section
@Alexis i promise your not the only one. they let a student do half of my stitches even after i told them i didn’t want any students doing anything but observing. it took me over 4 months to heal and had the worst pp care from my ob.. i have scar tissue and it’s painful almost every time we have sex even when using coconut oil or lubricant😓 men will never understand they just want their needs met😕
Like 6 months ish and it was very very painful for me. We really didn't have much at all, it was so painful and my husband was also really uncomfortable. It wasn't until probably just around the year mark that things were back to normal
@Meg literally it’s so annoying. like i birthed a whole human and went through a traumatic experience and my body did so much but yeah let’s have sex bc men can’t respect the fact that we need a second to physically and mentally recover they’re only focused on one thing
I think like 10 weeks
3 weeks x

@Chloe shhhh 😂😂 you know nothingggg 😂
@Lauralei 😁🫥🤐
I told him initially we were going to wait minimum 3 months. And then we have both just been too tired so it ended up being 10 months and it hurts, so I have not tried since. Baby is 13 months old now. Just not interested in it at all. Could quite happily never have sex ever again.
10 months pp, long distance from partner, haven't had any yet, but sorted myself out 2 weeks pp (c section) and regularly since then
After my C section, it was like 8 months later because I literally had no drive. After my vaginal I had to wait until 6 months PP because I wasn’t cleared but mentally I wanted to around 3-4 months PP, I just had a very physically traumatic birth so I wasn’t healed.
@Briella o no didn't that hurt ! 😔
Some of these responses got me like..
3 weeks and we were at it x
6 weeks after I gave birth x
