3 weeks pp

edited November 2011 in Postpartum Health
So I'm 3 weeks pp and I really would love to have sex again lol I'm still spotting on and off and I'm not really sore anymore. So I was wondering if you guys think its a ok idea or if I'm just being impatient and crazy lol

  • i had it at 3 weeks it hurt! and felt really really weird take it really really really slowly oh and make sure he wears something!!
  • Oh my god i am weeks pp and i am terrified of doing it, leaving it another month! I did have a traumatic birth with forceps and cuts etc tho so maybe its not so bad waiting.
  • Yikes your birth sounds like a terrible experience. Well my wasn't that bad I tore but my stitches have been gone for 2 weeks now. I'm pretty scared of it hurting tho lol
  • There is no evidence that having sex after birth is bad, unless you did have massive tearing or such, assuming you healed great and feel up to it you are allowed. It Will hurt the first little bit but once he is in and moving it feels great. Just use lots of lube and take it slow. Your body wont be as Wet as it used to be so always use lube until your done breast feeding and your hormones balance out again. Doctors only suggest waiting to have sex since they had the logic that if your uterus wasn't its regular size then maybe your inside's weren't ready for sex either. My doc only suggested waiting till two weeks so my uterus could be a little less inflamed but we both couldn't wait and had sex starting after one week pp
