Is sex still uncomfortable for anyone else?😢

Question

My SO and I have had sex 3 times now and it’s still super uncomfortable. It literally feels like they sewed me up too tight because it hurts so bad. Please tell me it gets better 😪😩

Answer

I haven’t even started having sex yet! Not really in the mood! 😬

Answer

I was like that without even having stitches 😬 I haven’t even tried to have sex yet 😭 I’m too scared to and SO has a much lower sex drive than me so he doesn’t push it at all.  I kind of wish he would because the longer we go without, the more anxious I get 😫

Answer

Yes....I had a 2nd degree tear and I still feel so tender with sex. We use lube but doesn’t help much for me. Hope it gets better.

Answer

We tried once when I was cleared at 6 weeks, but it was a big NOPE from me as soon as he tried to get it in.. Way too painful. 
I was hoping we could try again this past weekend since we got some lube, but then on Thursday I got my first period 😣
Luckily I don't really have an interest in sex (always, not just since baby) so it's more for my husband who is luckily very patient.

Answer

It gets better I promise. It felt the same way for me when my husband and I first started back to having sex after I had our baby. Use lube it helps and go slow you will eventually stretch it back to what it was and it won't feel so tight.

Answer

13 weeks pp and sex is just starting to feel “normal” again.

Answer

Yes!!! I said the same thing about getting sewn back up too tight! Haha we had sex once since we’ve had our baby in the past 3 months and it hurt so bad 😭😭
