sex after having to be cut and stitched?

How long should i wait honestly? Being as how my doctor had to cut me I'm a little unsure. I  don't see any more stitches and there's No more pain. And omg do i want it. Seriously I've never wanted sex so bad in my life. I had my daughter July 13th.

With my first son we had sex after 3 weeks and i have second degree tearing but it healed really quickly. It was uncimfortable but not painful. I had been on bedrest and no sex for 12 weeks prior to giving birth so i was dieing to.get it on lol

If you feel like doing it then you can try. Just take it slow. I never made it past 3 weeks but i had c-sections

Your doctor should have given you a grace period for that. It different from person to person on how long to wait. Some people it's 6 weeks others it's 3 months. All depends on the person and the procedure. I would call and talk to your doctor to make sure it's 100% safe.
