Successful PP sex!

Just thought I'd share with you fellow 6-7 weekers who are still waiting to try the PP sex for the first time that DH and I decided to take the plunge last night and it went really well!!   I was nervous of course, having read others' experiences and fully expecting it to be painful especially where I had my 2nd degree tear and stitches, but it was fine.  I think they key is PLENTY of K-Y, before you get started, and during, even if you have to take a break for a minute.  And I made sure to relax my body, not tense up and DH made sure to go VERY slow.  Just wanted to let others know that there is hope!  ; )

I'm only at 2 weeks PP and DH has already been asking when we can again.  Glad to know there is hope for it to not be too painful!

There is a lot of pent up sexual tension in this house, I better get cleared next Tuesday!

I can't wait for this. I've been ready for a week or two now but DH has been "too tired" when I try to initiate. Ugh.

Thank you for this! I was able to have a successful VBAC, but did have a 2nd degree tear, and I am completely frightened at thought of ever having sex again! It's good to know that it can be done and done painlessly!

3rd degree tear yes it can be painless dont stress just enjoy and hope all stays quiet for that special moment

Same scenario here!  It's funny because he was all geared up and taking about it from like weeks 3-5 and then was tired from work and getting up with me and the baby during the night on and off too.  But we found the right moment.  Good luck & have fun!

My DH said no until I get the Implanon haha after dealing with me the last 2 weeks of pregnancy, I delivered at 42 weeks, he said he needs a break from me being preggo and didnt want to risk it . I know they say women are lying about how ridiculous hormones are but I can honestly say as soon as I delivered her I was a completely different person, but that may have been from all the "when is that baby popping out comments" haha
