6-weeks to have sex/work-out question

It looks like I slacked off too long on scheduling my 6 week checkup and now can't get in for a couple more weeks. I was waiting to get the OK from my doctor before starting exercising and having sex. Should I wait to go to the appt, or say screw it and get busy? :)

    We had sex before the 6 weeks and my doctor was totally cool with it. She actually worded the question about sex as if she had figured we did. And, then asked if it felt dry...and advised keeping some KY on hand, just in case. I had 1 stitch and no issues at all PP, so didn't see any issues with the go ahead.

    I did some minimal research on it and determined that like everything else, doctors disagree on when is ok. Most say it is fine...that the reason you get the go ahead at 6 weeks is bc that is when you see the doc. They don't like to see you earlier bc your ute and other inside thisngs aren't back to normal yet.

    Be aware that there are some risks such as infection and, obviously, pregnancy.

    Have fun! Wink

    I got the go ahead at 4 weeks and we wasted no time and got busy that night. I thought the wait was miserable but because I had an episiotomy and was stitched back up it felt like losing my v-card all over again... Needless to say it wasnt the experience I had been hoping for... lol

    Yikes. This makes me look forward to it even less. I had an episiotomy with 4 stitches. I'm not crazy about just assuming that by 6 weeks everything looks good.
