Did you moms wait the full 6 weeks to have sex??
Also a decent amount of foreplay before hand will help your muscles loosen a little bit down there before he penetrates.
Water based lube was my best friend. Oil or anything else based could possibly cause an infection or your PH balance to get fucked up and you'll end up with a uti or yeast infection
@keonataylor
As long as your stitches are dissolved and you aren't in agony down there anymore, I say go for it lmao.
Bless you for being able to wait 4 weeks. My ob gave me that "bitch really" look when I told him I basically attacked my husband after 2 weeks while I still had stitches.
My hubby was the one begging me to wait until my stitches were gone but I got em while he was half asleep 😧😂😂
@jc2015, I had a second degree tear and Saturday will make 4 weeks since I gave birth and yeah I don’t think I can wait any longer than tomorrow.😫 I’m going to buy condoms and lube tomorrow and going to try.
Just make sure you're healed as the spot that I tore is still super sensitive at times and I still have to use lube every now and then because I didn't wait until I was healed fully
I had a first degree tear and still had like 2 stitches when I gave in because my sex drive was INSANE I think I maybe waited 2 weeks maybe a week and 1/2 😧
But DEFINITELY use lube. Preferably water based to eliminate infection risk.
@shellbell0391, I only bled for a week after then it’s been a yellow color basically every now and then and now nothing.
Yes I wasn’t even thinking about sex after I had my son. I felt so gross I bled for awhile and it was nasty and I was so tired and sore from my c section. Mostly too tired to have sex lol
@believeinbuddha, okay I’m going to buy condoms do I still need to get lube as well?
My only advice.... USE LUBE. Women don't think about how our estrogen levels are depleted after giving birth. So we tend to be dry. And our vaginal walls are delicate after labor so lube eases the friction and saves you some possible pain.
@keonataylor well I personally tore with this baby and I had never done that before and I had always had sex like 2 weeks after I had my babies with NO issue but I had uncomplicated vaginal births with speedy recoveries. This last baby was different and I had to get stitches. I wish I had waited because it HURTS where I tore now some times when I have sex and some times randomly for no reason. I hate it. But that's just me. I think if you didn't tear and you're feeling good then go for it girl.
@mommy121518, I feel like I’m healed I’ve felt great. Don’t feel like I ever had a baby.
@keonataylor if u feel ready ..where condom and start slow and see how it goes from there if it hurts then dont continue just stop until ur healed all the way
@mommy121518, okay I haven’t really bled for the last week or longer just alittle here and there but it’s more a yellow or light pink color and I feel great. Should I be okay?
@jc2015, girl I feel you. We both are dying to and I’m like okay it’s been 4 weeks let’s just use protection be careful and take it slow and enjoy!😂😂 I’m about to go crazyyy!!
