How soon can you have s*x after having a vaginal delivery?

Question

i know doctors recommend waiting six weeks, was wondering if anyone gave in early?

Answer 1

6 weeks

Answer 2

It's usually six weeks & it's best to wait that length of time, healing wise. Not waiting may cause you some discomfort or pain.  

Answer 3

it was about 6/7 weeks, too tired before that and really didnt want to go there!!!

Answer 4

It really depends on how comfortable you are with it. Some people may give in as early as 3 weeks :)

A few factors to consider-whether you had an epistomy, your rate of recovery, and your health condition.Do whatever feels right for your body. Go slow ;)

Take care!

Answer 5

If you still have stitches I would say definitely wait on those to fall out or be removed. I did have a friend that had s*x after like 3 weeks, and she was fine, but she didn't tear or have stitches.

Answer 6

gave in early!!! h**l no i was to tired

ive found it hard to do that again until baby was about 3months

a friend was doing it as soon as herbleeding stopped so some woman can b4 others if u have a good baby and not to much pain after birth i guess u can do it sooner!

you still have stitches!! id say no way until they healed & gone just because of infection ive never had stitches  but thats gotta be a big wait till u have healed
