We DTD at 8 weeks PP since I had a 4th degree tear and an episiotomy.

I found that using tons of lube really helped with everything and lots of foreplay helped me to relax

I was really nervous at first, but after we got started it was awesome

We waited the full 6 weeks as advised by my doctor. I'm glad we waited, that way I felt like I was fully recovered and I didn't have to worry about anything going wrong. Just use lots of lube, it does hurt unfortunately and I had a c-section!

8 weeks.
It was a bit tender, but it didn't take long to go back to normal

Two weeks.

ETA: I didn't have stitches or any tearing. It wasn't painful at 2 weeks PP, but I also had a really good birth experience and recovery.

8 weeks as i had stitches. We took it really slow though and it wasn't too bad.

About ten and apparently it felt no different for OH but for me it really hurts. Still does so we stick to other things. I didn't even tear

3weeks both times for me. I never had stitches or anything but didn't find it painful at all.
