Postpartum/sex

4 weeks 3 days postpartum from an emergency c-section. I know we are supposed to wait 6 weeks for sex. And yes I do know why. I do know the consequences. But I’m curious to know if y’all waited… I’m struggling…I waited two and a half weeks and then I accidentally came while we were fooling around.. (no insertion) and I was so scared. I thought I was gonna die. (I told myself the scar might rip on the inside and I’ll internally bleed to death..😅 I would love to hear yalls thoughts. No judgment.. and yeah I get the risks so I don’t really wanna hear about that either.. 😂

Yes I waited. The risks weren’t worth it for me. You can still cum, the idea is just nothing inserted in you!

I waited 8 weeks . Just wasn’t in the mood .. sex will always be there

@Justina im not worried about it running away 🤷🏻‍♀️ I guess some people just have a higher sex drive.

Orgasms will not hurt you. I talked to my doctor about this and she said we can do anything, even anal, as long as we don't do vaginal penetration and it's just to avoid infection and ripping stitches. I'm only 3 weeks (almost 4) PP and we've been having sex since the second week (anal and oral only) Do what feels good for your body as long as you're doing it safe

@Justina I NEEDED it as a way to help me emotionally regulate. I'm hypersexual so it was worse for my mental health to wait

@Star yes thank you! I pick fights with my spouse and I think it’s from lack of affection. I’m very sexually and this is mentally draining me. I’m depressed asf.

I didn’t wait. I did it 4 weeks pp. my bleeding stopped at like 2.5/3 weeks. I didn’t get an infection or anything.
