When did you have sex after your c section

Question

Just wondering because I am 3 weeks pp, not bleeding anymore and I feel completely fine. And I have the depo shot so was wondering if it'd be okay to have sex with my husband

Answer

Even if you aren’t hurting you might not be completely healed and at an increased risk for infection. You can do sexual things if you’re up to it but probably not penetrative sex until your doctor clears you.

Answer

My midwife had to clear me first. I got cleared at my 6 week postpartum appointment.

Answer

I wasn't cleared for sex until 8 weeks

Answer

Youcan have sex whenever you feel up for it, just tske it slow cause once you get going your gonna be sore as hell.. I waited 2 weeks.. The day I got my staples out we started having sex.

Answer

Advice in the uk is generally 6 weeks for a vaginal birth. I had no specific advice but I felt ready and wanted to after 6 days. I just took it very slowly. 
Just go with what your doctor/midwife says and then see how you feel. Just be careful! :)

Answer

Between 2-3 weeks. I felt ready, and had no pain in my incision site by 10 days postpartum.
No rush, take things at your own pace 😊
