Ok ladies, how long did you wait before fooling around? DH has gone from hinting to researching and reading stuff from the internet to just asking me when we can start things up again. I am still bleeding and really do not want to but holy cow dealing with DS crying and DH crying is almost too much. Did you wait the whole 6 weeks recommended?
And if he's whiny about not getting any- then he's going to whine when he knows you have to use condoms for a while. I waited until 4 weeks, but it was because I wanted it, not him pressuring me. He was perfectly happy getting the "attention" I was giv
Like PP's said, if you're still bleeding you need to wait to have sex. We waited until I was just shy of 6 weeks and had been done bleeding for at least a week, probably more. Tell him to give you a break, you just pushed a baby out less than a month ago!

We tried at 5 weeks and it was too uncomfortable. We finally got things going around 7 weeks. Before then I kept him happy in "other" ways. It was a nice compromise and give him some patience.
We tried at 7 weeks and it was a disaster. We have yet to have a successful trial. I have done "other things" to keep him happy though. It just hurts way too much right now, and I am completely uncomfortable with my body.
With my older DS we tried a few days shy of 6 weeks and couldn't do it. We tried a few days later and were fine, but it's a little painful at first. With this one, we haven't thought about it yet
You're husband sounds like an immature tool. Tell him to grow up and it's not just about his needs anymore. I would wait until cleared by your doctor/midwife, especially since you're still bleeding.
I stopped bleeding after 2 weeks and my stitches were gone after 2.5 weeks. I was the one who couldn't wait any longer, I attacked DH and it was a total surprise to him. He tried to fight me off, but couldn't resist! I know bad me!!
we did it last night, first time PP - I was just at 3 weeks...My bleeding has stopped and we used a regular condom with regular lube just to be safe (I didnt want to "chance" an infection). From what I read, at minimum, you should wait until your bleed

Re: UGH? whiney husband!
We waited almost 8 weeks, I didn't feel ready at 6. If you're still bleeding, you definitely need to keep waiting!

You definitely should not while you're still bleeding. And even after you're done bleeding - you may need some more time, a lot of lube, or both.
For us it has been one aborted attempt at 5 weeks - it hurt too much. Once the little guy's all
