s*x after birth?

Question

I gave birth 3 weeks ago. After 1 week I had s*x using a condom. But since then a couple of times my partner entered me without a condom. We had a couple of thrusts. He was only there for bout a minute. He didnt ejaculate but im still so scared of the risk of pregnancy. Advice please???

Answer 1

your doctor told u no s*x for 6 wks for a reason.  ur body is not ready for s*x or for another pregnancy. if u can't want for pleasure then get a toy.

Answer 2

One thing my doctor told me at my post partum visit is that you are very fertile immediately after giving birth.  The exception being if you are breastfeeding.  This tends to not let you ovulate due to the hormones.  I would be very careful if I were you.  My doctor also told me that there was to be nothing in my v****a for at least 4 weeks after giving birth.  (Sorry if tmi).  Let yourself heal before worrying about s*x.

Answer 3

I tip my hat to you. There is no way possible I could have had s*x or even thought about s*x after one week!

Answer 4

Stop me if you have heard this one before....SAFE s*x!

You should know by now how babies are made.

After one week?  Ouch!

My advice....get some advice! Quick!!

Answer 5

If you are having unprotected s*x and your partner ejaculates – even a little inside you, there is always the possibility of you becoming pregnant. The possibility lessens at certain stages of your cycle - and given you have only recently birthed, your hormones may not have sorted themselves out yet;  Breastfeeding is mother natures contraceptive – but a new mother should not rely on this to keep her from not being pregnant!

Getting down to the nuts and bolts of this 'transaction' . For a pregnancy to occur - there must be live and healthy sperm and for it to be injected/ put into in whatever way - into a woman's v****a - to allow it to make its way up into the uterus and onto the egg/eggs ready to be fertilized. Eggs are only ready for this for a few scant days in a woman's cycle - and again only if she is healthy etc – and her cycles have started ( after birthing this can take time – dependant upon breastfeeding and birth control pills and your health in general)

Sperm exposed to room air on clothing, bed linens or toilet seats lose the ability to swim very quickly. Once the s***n dries out, the sperm are usually dead.

If the s***n is near a female and no fertile fluid is present ( that's the egg white like stretchy mucus from your v****a which tells you you are fertile) , they will die within a few hours in or out of the body. If there is fertile fluid from her, they can live for a week waiting for the egg to be released (which probably won't wait a week to be released with fertile fluid present).

As far as wiaitng for 6 weeks etc... Everyone’s experiences make them an expert in their own right - so what is right for one couple may not be appropriate for another. Most couples wait for the magical 6 week mark  and are dreadfully disappointed when that incredible pre birth s*x doesn’t happen.  The physical facts are that within six weeks of birthing, your uterus should be back to its pre-pregnancy weight and size. Breastfeeding assists in stimulating the hormones released around this function.   This is the reason that you are meant to have a six week check up and then are medically are ‘fit’ to commence intimate relations.  Ignored and unaddressed are the emotional and psychological changes that have occurred.

The rule of thumb is – if you have unprotected s*x, then there is always the possibility of you being pregnant. An at home preg test kit will confirm this – go to the chemist and get a preg test.. 3 mins waiting and you will have your answer -but seek a doctors blood test if you are concerned. . best of luck

Answer 6

the only advice is that you should wait another 3 weeks before having s*x...and when you do, you need to be on birth control and your partner should use a condom for at least a month....wait a year to try to get pregnant again.

Answer 7

i would wait till your body ready then have s*x and ALWAYS unless u want another baby use a comdom this is what i dont get about ppl if they dont want a baby why are they not using comdoms im not saying not every one dosent but you should make sure you have comdoms at all times

Answer 8

YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO WAIT SIX WEEKS BEFORE HAVING s*x AFTER A BABY.

WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD WANT TO ANYWAY!!!

DID YOU NOT LEARN YOUR LESSON AS TO WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU HAD UNPROTECED s*x??

Answer 9

have to say that the risk is higher to conceive just after having a baby so i would say be very careful and sort out some contraception

Answer 10

You're not meant to have s*x until 6 weeks after the birth to give your body some time to recover, and you are also still very fertile after childbirth.

If you do not want to get pregnant yet your partner doesn't want to use condoms then i suggest you get the depo shot or some other form of contraception.

Answer 11

Well there is always prec*m which your partner would not be able to feel. So there is a risk of pregnancy. I don't know what to tell you except wait a few weeks and take a pregnancy test. It'll be hard to judge if you go by a missed period, because since you just had a baby, you don't know when to expect your period.

Answer 12

well you just had a baby right and its very possible to become  pregnant straight away so i would be VERY careful AS u NO its still easy to fertilise down there....but congrat on your new edition to you and your partner enjoy every moment.

Answer 13

its not safe to ahve s*x for 6 wks. u were told that 4 a reason. u no wat happens with unprotected s*x. WAIT!!!!!!!
