Does having sex after a section hurt?

Question

If so, why? How bad?

Answer

It did for me. I was told it was all to do with my hormones. Also we had not had sex in ages. I think my husband was freaked when I hit the third trimester. It was also hard for me to get wet after, my sex drive was so low the time I was breastfeeding.

Answer

A little bit.
But good God it hurt 100 times more after my other vaginal delivery and was painful for 9 months.

Answer

Omg yes!!! Just because it didn’t come out of your whoha it hurts and bad I cried. And I waited the 6 weeks.

Answer

It didn’t hurt at all for me. But everyone is different.

Answer

I had sex two weeks after my first c section. 😬 I was on top so I felt in control and no pain for me. I had twins that first time and was only 21. My second c section and 3rd child we waited the 6 weeks mainly bc we had three kids and it was hard with his work schedule and I was so much more tired (11 years between first two pregnancies) it didn’t hurt, I just couldn’t have hime lay his weight on me bc I had issues healing from that c section so I was very protective of my incision. But no pain. I am 26 weeks with baby number four now, not sure how it will go this time.

Answer

For about 11 months yeah

Answer

It was uncomfortable but it was more the feeling of not having sex for ages than actually pain. Scar was just tender. Go slooooow. Third time was normal again for me.

Answer

Didn’t hurt for me, more just uncomfortable because it had been six weeks.
