After having a baby is 9 days to soon to have s*x?

Question

i had my 3rd baby 9 days ago, no stitches or tears and im not bleeding anymore, i want to have s*x with my husband already. i was wondering if it was too soon. we are planning on using a condom so i don't get an infection or pregnant,,

Answer 1

Yes it's too early. You are told to wait 6 weeks regardless of tearing or the type of birth you have. You need that time for your body to heal, even if you feel okay.

Plus, aren't you still bleeding?

Answer 2

Call your doctor and ask him.  

Answer 3

I know EXACTLY how you feel and how your s*x drive must be all revved up and ready to go, but remember, that baby scraped up your insides nicely on the way out!  Most doctors recommend 6 weeks although I think after my last baby we only waited 5. *grin*

Answer 4

Yes, it is much too early. Your body is more fragile than you realize

Answer 5

You will still be very tender and it would probably hurt, best to wait closer to 6 weeks, you can always do other things that don't involve penetration of any sort if you feel you want to.

Answer 6

It's up to you really, if you feel comfortable. Most women just feel really insecure about their body so soon after the birth that they wait longer, but see your doctor for advice. They know what's safe for you. :)

Answer 7

Yes it is too soon. Your body needs that time to heal. Also you have a very, very high chance at getting pregnant easily during the healing process.  

Answer 8

I would  say it is wayyyyyyy too early. Wait for your six weeks to be over. When you go in for your doctors appointment, talk to your doc.  

Answer 9

way too early. you need to wait 6 weeks. come on, its possible!
