Sex... OMG OWWWW!

bebedreamr · Mar 31st, 2012, 22:37 PM

So I am 6 weeks postpartum, and just had sex for the first time (we tried at 4 weeks PP but it just wasn't getting in there). Soooo, I never knew it would hurt worse than losing my virginity! Anyone else?
Poor OH, I had to take it reeeeeeeaaaaaaaallllly slowly. I wouldnt have thought that it would be like that after having a baby, since it stretched so much. But seriously that was more pain than I felt pushing out my DD! What makes it hurt so much? Do the muscles lose their memory?

It hurts doesn't it! We had to abandon the first time, but it got better and better every time and at 5 months now and haven't had pain for a while now so it does get better quickly xx

I must be extremely lucky, had sex at 5 weeks pp and it felt fine, although I didn't have any tears or stitches . . .

I wonder why it hurts more for some than others? It felt like I was being stretched out again, and I only had 3 internal stitches and a really small tear. I'm hoping its all stretched out now and I can enjoy it again on the rare occasions we actually get a few moments to ourselves to do it! Lol

I didn't have any Tears or stitches n tried to have sex 3 times now it hurts so much! It's like I'm being ripped open again! It's sooo tight (tmi!) I thought it would be all open haha!

I think lubrication is a must next time!
