You need to be cleared by your doctor first.Even if you didn’t deliver vaginally, and stopped bleeding, you have a dinner plate sized open wound inside you that is incredibly susceptible to infection and a you don’t wait.

Sex isn’t worth getting an infection. Just wait until you get the green light from your doctor.

Shouldnt have sex until you're cleared first, remember they recommend waiting 6 weeks after birth. Its not only how you feel, remember your uterus is adjusting again.

When it got hard for us after the birth of our first, we found ways to enjoy each other without any penetration. It helped until we could be cleared by the doc. Having been readmitted for a uterine infection early about a week postpartum—not worth it.

So, what the other poster said, as well as your stitches are more than what you can see and the last thing u want is an internal stitch popping

I don’t see any problem with sex at 4 months PP if you’re cleared by your doc!
