Can't have sex
I'll be 9 weeks PP tomorrow. When I gave birth I had a pretty bad episiotomy - it was apparently a lateral cut rather than up and down, so it took longer to heal. When I had my 6 week check up and she performed her exam she said I was fine but it was painful. My husband and I tried to have sex for the first time today (I knew I wasn't ready before) and we couldn't do it. Or I couldn't do it, rather. There was a point at which he couldn't go in any further because it was too tight/painful. We used lube and it didn't even help. I don't know what to do because apparently I'm "all healed" but I can't have sex. I feel like the doctor ruined me with that episiotomy. Anyone have a similar experience or advice? I feel horrible for my husband.😞😞😞
