Sex postpartum...Is this normal?

[ashleyg]

I'm almost 4 weeks PP from my c section and my husband I had sex tonight for the first time in a little over a month. The sex wasn't really painful at all but after we were done and I went pee, it burned a little.
Is this normal??

Thanks ladies!

EDIT: also just went pee and now I'm bleeding pink :/ is this normal after sex as well??

you might have a uti hun. You need to be really careful your section was major surgery hun and having sex could aggrevate things inside that are not quite healed fully yet

if its still stinging or you get more blood then you should get checked out. The cathater they place during/after the op can cause a UTI or do a little damage that needs a while to heal xx

It doesn't sting anymore. Just still lightly bleeding

I would get it checked if you can hun. I never experienced any bleeding when peeing after my section xx

I never had stinging while peeing, but both c-sections I had a burning itching feeling like thrush while actually having sex. No idea what it was as I didn't have thrush (I went to the doctor).
