Sex 6 weeks post c section

I am 6 weeks post c section and have started to have sex again, it felt as though my cervix was quite sore especially in certain positions. Has anyone else experienced this? How long does it last and did anything help?

You might not be ready yet! 6 weeks is just a guideline. Was your cervix planned or did you labor? That could make a big difference too.

My cervix is in a totally different location now lol, it's much higher than it was previously. My OB struggled to put an IUD in 🫠

Contractions? Heads engaged? I’m confused

I’ve been feeling cramp like pains since the morning they come and go but they’re more like period pains. Or before you start your period. I keep needing the toilet for a no1 and 2 but I don’t know if this is early labour or baby’s head engaging? Also the fluid coming out of me smells like vinegar. It’s not a lot so it’s not my water breaking but it’s strange. Does anyone know what’s going on cause I’m so confused and it’s stressing me out 😣

Keep your judgement- advice only!

Had an emergency c section 5 months ago and we will be trying for our second baby at 12 months pp. yea I know the risks, so I don’t need to be reminded of it. We’ve been told 18 between birth and getting pregnant again is ideal but 18m between births is okay. Is there anything o can do to help my c section healing internally to give myself the best chances in my next pregnancy?

Pregnancy exhaustion

Hi everyone. I’m coming up to 12 weeks pregnant and I’m just so tired all the time. The heatwave isn’t helping but I wondered how long everyone else experienced it for or has any tips to get through. It’s my first pregnancy

Brown spotting/discharge - 30+3

TMI
Hey. I need some advice. Since last night after intercourse I have been having light brown bleeding/discharge. It was very much like spotting last night there wasn’t a lot of it. So this morning it carried on very little so I put a pad on just to monitor and it wasn’t heavy at all so I took it off a few hours later. I have been busy on my feet today as I have two children but I have just been to the toilet and it is in my knickers now. Is this normal? I have had it before after intercourse but it’s never gone on this long 🤷🏼‍♀️
