Are orgasms okay after a c-section?

Question

Dumb question, but curious to know. I know I can't have sex for six weeks, but will the uterine/pelvic floor tightening/contracting from a clit orgasm be painful on the incision area and healing uterus?

I'm assuming the answer is yes it is painful, and wait until six weeks....because a c-section is a major surgery. But did anyone specifically discuss this with their doctor?

Answer

I waited 2 weeks for the big O

Answer

In the uk we don't wait six weeks. I usually have sex again around 4 weeks only because it takes ages for my bleeding to stop and no it does not hurt at all after my c section. This is my 4th too

Answer

Lmfao
I actually didn't wait the 6 weeks.
I wait almost 3 and resumes normal sex.
Very gentle and he only went half way in and I had no problems!
Having a G spot Orgasim is a big no no because of where it is but I found a clitoral orgasim actually helps your uterus contract and push the yucky blood and stuff out. Much like breast feeding your uterus contracting back to normal is a good thing not bad. It makes it so you don't have to do the massage technic they show you while your in the hospital.
May I add I was barely dilated when I went into labour . Only 2 and half CM so it didn't take me as long for my cevex to close up.
The reason  they tell you no sex for 6 weeks for vaginally or C section is because of this. That and your stiches.  Personally I'd wait a full 6 for vaginal because you had to push the baby out that way.
For C section it's up to you but if you were dialed more then 4cm it will take the full 6 weeks for it to close.
Be very clean about it if you do try and keep in mind weather you have sex or do it manually lol it may be uncomfortable for your incesion.
Good luck momma ;)

Answer

I didn't ask my doc, but I had the big o 3 weeks after my c section. I was terrified that it would hurt, but no pain at all!

Answer

Curious too! Too scared to try lol

Answer

I've been doing some research and if you breast feed, your uterus contracts. When you orgasm, it contracts. I waited a month and I'm fine, but of course everyone is different.

Answer

Not sure, curious too.
