I know to wait the six weeks to get the a ok before resuming having sex with my husband (I had a 2nd degree tear and my stitches are still healing, I don't want anything in me for a while and can wait till we get the ok from the doctor) but I am feeling increasingly horny and frustrated about that.

Other moms, how did you handle it? Did you guys masturbate and if so, did it help you to feel better? I'm just trying to figure out if masturbation is ok while things are still healing or if I should just tough out the remaining 4/6 weeks.
