Sex after baby?

Question

I'm 2 weeks post partum but am wondering how sex is after baby?

Does it hurt to have sex? Ive heard some women say use tons of lube

Answer

It's really painful for a lot of women. It wasn't painful for me and I even had a 3rd degree tear. Every woman is different. But I would definitely make sure to have enough lube just in case.

Answer

We had sex 3 weeks after it felt kind of weird like my a suction cup and it didn't hurt it was just uncomfortable at first

Answer

I had a vaginal birth, no tear or stitches, and sex is extremely painful for me. And to make things worse, this is my 4th baby. Never had this problem before, so it's true when they say every pregnancy and birth is different 😕

Answer

We had sex again at 7 weeks postpartum and used coconut oil as lube just in case and no pain at all. Actually I have found that sex feels even better now after having my daughter. Or maybe it's just cause it's been so long since we've been able to have sex without a big belly between us lol. We've had sex 4 more times since then and haven't had to use lube at all because my natural lube has been enough which is friggin awesome cause I was so dry before and during pregnancy.

Answer

Wasn't painful for me. It was a little uncomfortable at first but not painful. I had a csection and i had sex at 20 days PP.

Answer

I had a vaginal tear and sex didn't hurt at all for me at the 6 week mark! I was so scared it would because of what a lot of people said on here.
