Sex while still spotting?

Question

How does everyone feel about having sex while still spotting after a miscarriage? I'm BARELY bleeding any more. Like hardly any only when I wipe. I miss being intimate with my husband.

Answer

I stopped bleeding yesterday evening after my miscarriage and we had sex today. I was struggling so much not being able to be intimate and needed that closeness I think we both needed it. I've been trawling the Internet for last 10mins wondering if we shouldn't of done it. However this post has made me feel a lot better. If you need the intimacy and both want that then I say go for it. I'm so glad we did 💕

Answer

I am so so sorry for your loss.  I had a misscarriage in January, and had a DnC done. The dr advised me to wait until all the bleeding was gone, but in all honesty I was still bleeding a very small amount (mostly when I wiped) when we started to have sex again. Nothing bad happened, and I actually ended up getting pregnant again right away. I was supposed to wait a few cycles but we weren't that careful about it. 
Just make sure you shower and take it slow. Any pain at all and it might be best to wait a few more days. Best of luck. I know that intimacy helps me feel closer to my husband, especially in emotionally trying times.

Answer

First off, I am so sorry for your loss :( 
I am in the same spot you are. They usually advise no sex, tampons, ect. For 2 weeks after, to allow the cervix to close and lessen the chances of infection. But I understand where you're coming from...I missed being with my husband and especially after something so terrible I felt intimacy brought us so much closer. I took cytotex to help pass all the tissue and baby about a week ago, I know everything passed but am lightly spotting/bleeding still too...but I gave in to my weekness and made love to my husband last night. 
We just both showered and washed very well before and after and were very gentle to try and avoid germs or physical damage. 
I am so glad we did because I feel so much closer and to him again and a but normal again. 
Best wishes!

Answer

As long as you wait the two weeks for pelvic rest, I say go for it!
