Sex after delivery

I gave birth to my son a month ago, and I am pretty sure that I have started my period (in which I am currently on my 4th day). I have been feeling kind of "in the mood" really bad lately, but I have not yet had my postnatal check up yet to discuss birth control options with my doctor. Is it safe to just have sex using condoms until my appointment? Or should I just not do it at all?

Yeah I'd wait you're still not fully healed yet and you are extremely fertile after giving birth
