Resuming a sex life

Hey cool, Isabella was born on Keziah-Mays due date! (She ended up being the 15th)
Anyway back on topic, we had sex at 20 days postpartum, when my lochia first stopped, had sex again a fortnight after, once the bleeding had ceased again and a couple of times since.
Just be warned, babies have a tendency to sense intimacy and they don't like it!
 
lol i can imagine. i cant even cuddle my OH wthout he opening one eye and giving us evils lol
 
It's an instinct, designed to deter the parents from producing sibling rivals :)
 
i had sex about 26hours after james was born and it was the best sex i ever had lol but james was premmie so i had less tenderness or that down there lol never managed really to get an adult life back lol
 
we had sex sex 17 days after the birth and it was amazing

Had baby on 22nd of December. Just did today.(Was actually gonna post the same thread lol)


Heard that the days after birth, if you make love, you can have an air embolism. One death was at 8 days postpartum and one 5 days postpartum. (search google for sex after postpartum air embolism)

Not sure how true, but it freaked me out. Had intercourse four weeks after baby number one.
 
With my first we dtd a week and a half after birth and everything was normal.
 
I'm quite scared to have sex still even though it doesn't hurt down there any more!
I really want to, can't wait but going to wait for the bleeding to stop.
 
This week was the first time, 7 wks pp. Bleeding stopped at 6 wks pp.
 
Hi :) for us-it was 3 months after the birth of our first son (lots of stitches, and took me a while to recover pyhsically and mentally). This time around-only 5 weeks. I feel loads better after this pregnancy and birth, and less stitches and damage down below.
 
Sadly I don't think my sex life is going to go back to normal - according to my gynae I healed wrong and have some lumpy scar tissue that will probably cause me pain when I try (I've sort of tried but stopped because it hurt so he's probably right)

am told I can have surgery but theres no way I could go through the healing thing again so I think I'd rather not even have sex :cry:
