Only burns once after sex. I think I'll take it easy with sex for a little longer.

You said you feel burned,does it burn when you pee?if it does you could have a uti and id say you could do with an antibiotic

I bled for 6 weeks solid after my first baby,it varies with everyone really but if the bleeding is your main concern i really wouldnt worry about too much,thats just my opinion hun as it can be totally normal

You can keep having postpartum  bleeding for 10 wks. Sorry but true and it depends on how much rest you are getting as well yes to early for sex. Every women's different but having a baby is very hard on the body and takes time to heal. Call your Dr it doesn't hurt but I would start with pelvis rest.

Doctor said I was already healed from my one stitch. Said to wait till bv was gone and try to wait a month. I obviously Didnt wait quite a month. It seeks great during. The bleeding just worries me. I'm going to call to get script of New bv cream, just in case, but do you think the bleeding is bad?

Youre not supposed to have sex til after 6 weeks after having a baby,your body needs time to recover and you arent giving your body that chance if your having sex..you should go see your doctor if youre not feeling right and they should be able to give you something for it,certainly sounds like you could do with some medication or it,good luck
