After birth advice Please.
How long should you stay before being intimate with your spouse?
My dr says if u have stitches 6 weeks if not when the bleading has been stopped for a week you should be compleatly healed and ready to go ( for vaginal births only ) i had sex 1 week 5 days later with my first just took it really slow.
Yea I delivered my son vaginally and waited 5wks and 6days. My daughter was born 3wks ago tomorrow via c section and I haven't gave in yet but that's mainly cause I'm still bleeding a little.
My husband couldn't wait, so I gave in at 2 weeks... but PLEASE PLEASE use some type of birth control cuz my daughter just turned 6 months, and I'm 8 weeks pregnant!!
6-8 weeks is if you had stitches or are still very tender or sore. I have never had stitches and I was totally fine to have sex 2 weeks after and I only waited that long because I was so sleepy. :) my doctor cleared me before I did anything just to be safe.
Since I had a c section and not a vaginal birth I gave in around 5 weeks. It definitely hurt at first.
If you don't wait the six weeks you run a high risk of injury, infection or getting pregnant.
6 weeks usually is what they recommend.. I've heard people trying at 4 and 5 weeks with no pain but to play say probably best to wait 6
