Intercourse after birth

Jessica • First time mom raising a gentleman❤️❤️

I had my 6 week postpartum check today and everything got cleared. I’m terrified to have sex. It hurt with the doctors fingers down there checking today. I got lubricant because I don’t want it to be too painful. How was it for other first time moms?

UPDATE

We did it and it felt a little weird/sore at first then it actually started to feel good lol thank you for those that commented it did help me not dread it! We used lubricant and condoms with lubricant on it. I did start bleeding again a couple days ago so I think that’s why I felt some cramping also
