Sex after c-section?

laurensmerritt · September 2009

Just wondering what its like? We're obviously not in the same boat as those who delivered vaginally, but I imagine there's still the opportunity for discomfort. Was it different than before? Did it hurt the first couple times bc of the incision/scar tissue/soreness? TIA

it did hurt a little, but for me it was because we needed some serious lube. sorry for the tmi. If you are bfing...make sure you stock up and have fun

For me it hurts really bad. I don't know if it is because I did dialate all the way and push for a while before having the c section. We have tried maybe 4 or 5 times and each time was just about unbearable. It really sucks.

I havent been cleared for sex yet but...I have it anyway ::gasp::

I think that the first initial insertion was pretty uncomfortable but by pump 4 or 5 I got over. We used lube and went slow and I'll tell ya what..it was possibly the best sex of my life.

woot

It's been pretty dang painful for me so far. Lube helps (I"m BF'ing), but its still not enjoyable for me yet. I think it is getting a little better as time goes on and we do it more.
