Hi! So before having our son, my husband and I would do doggy no problem, nothing hurt. Itâs his favorite position, and I also really like it. But I just canât seem to enjoy it anymore. Itâs physically painful, and thatâs the only position that hurts. I had second degree, almost third degree tears and when they stitched me up I swear they did something wrong. I know Iâve heard people say sometimes they put an extra stitch inâŠđI donât know how true this is. And I know people say your vagina will basically never be the same. But, I feel like it isnât normal for it to still hurt. Someone make me feel less crazy please.

for me itâs not super painful but it doesnât feel as enjoyable after birth. i feel like itâs a pelvic floor issue. other than that my vagina/sex feels the same

Just go to a pelvic floor pt! Theyâll feel you up there and identify the issue and move things into place and give you some good exercises and advice!

Have you had an obgyn check up to see if everything is normal? You can also get physical therapy for your pelvic floor. I got everything x-rayed and looked at and Iâm going to physical therapy for my hips.

I am 100% having the same issue so bad to the point that it makes me feel like going to the hospital. I asked my pelvic floor therapist about it and she said that the exercises should help make it feel better try massaging your area and see if thereâs anywhere where itâs super sensitive or painful sometimes it can be our muscles tensing which can cause the pain

I did it 10 weeks pp and didnât have any issues. But I think itâs all dependent on how you ripped and how youâre healing. I had two minor rips the bottom healed wonderfully within the first 6 weeks. The right labial tear was a bitch to heal. I think I did a lot better because I truly waited until I was completely healed for a few weeks already to try it.
