TMI...DTD

My LO is 2 months. My husband and I have tried twice to DTD ... So much fail. Couldn't even go 1/2 in without me being in so much pain (and its not like i'm married to a NBA player or anything...lol). I had a vaginal birth with tearing but feel like it shouldnt hurt this bad. Advice?

Lube, wine, and time !

In all seriousness though, my OB recommended using lube "generously." I had a glass of wine to ease my own fears! And just take it slow. It may take a few tries.

Edit: for my terrible grammar

My advice would be to introduce yourself before talking about your vaginal status.

We were finally successful at 12.5 weeks PP after 3 unsuccessful attempts, starting at 6 week PP. Each time got a bit better and then it finally worked! Still hurt but not nearly as bad and I actually enjoyed it :-) Lots of lube and go really really slow. You'll get there! GL

Silly me, thought this was the internet, where you don't have to buy me dinner first.

Go slow, for me it took a year to DTD confortably enough to enjoy it and trust my body. I had a 4th deg tear with ds.
