To all mommy's who have had a c section, how long did you wait before having sex? I know the doctors say wait six weeks.
To be honest, I wasn't really in the mood to have sex so I really wasn't counting. Only thing that had me know was the checkup afterwards lol.
@lydia007 oh ok I mean I've had 2 other c sections before this 3rd one but I don't remember how long I waited.
I waited the full 6 weeks cause I was scared. And the first few times after that, hurt. I have heard many moms who haven't had pain at all though.
@jassyburton62612, yeah, the risk of infection is high during those first few weeks and you def don't want to reopen that incision and have to visit the hospital with your newborn in tow
@brbsmomma oh ok cool. Yea I guess it's best to play it safe and wait the full 6 weeks.
The night of my six week checkup😂 I was tired of holding over hubs with handys lmao the friction made my incision a little sore at first but it was fine after
It hurt me for a while. About 6 months was when it got better, but not everyone is the same. You're supposed to take it slow and use a lot of lube.
I did the same day I got home... maybe 3 days after birth.
