Postpartum sex

Erin

I know, millionth topic, right? But still, I want to know if anyone else has had a similar problem.

I'm almost 9 weeks pp. Only had sex so far twice. But each time, after I get over the soreness of where my stitches were, I'm pretty okay.

Until afterward. As soon as I get up, I feel so swollen and heavy, and it's like giving birth all over. It's so painful that it hurts to sit. I don't know what to do, and now I'm terrified that I'll never enjoy sex again.

Did you experience anything like this? How long did it take you to enjoy sex again?
