Postpartum Sex

Kaysie

Feeling very insecure and uncomfortable with the idea of having sex since giving birth 8 weeks ago. I was cleared at my 6 weeks postpartum checkup, and was told because of cardiovascular health issues I cannot be on birth control. Now I’m super worried about having “safe” sex with the fear of getting pregnant again. I wouldn’t mind another baby, but just not right now. I have tried tracking my fertility when getting pregnant, but not when trying to avoid pregnancy. Plus, it’s hard to know when I still have yet to have a period since giving birth 8 weeks ago.

Please, Any suggestions or advice?
