Abdominal pain 3 months post?
Ok my husband and I have yet to have pp sex. I am terrified.
The other day he lied on me and my abdomen hurt like you would not believe. It took my breath away. It wasn't the incision (seems to have healed wonderfully) it seemed to be deeper inside...? It feels the same way when my toddler elbows me there or leans on me.
Thoughts? I don't remember this from my first c-section!
I really don't want it to feel like I'm a virgin again and I am scared of that too! What if we just can't get it in??? I was on bedrest for 1/2 my pregnancy so we've been without for a LONG time....

Re: Abdominal pain 3 months post?
I still don't let DH put pressure on me. I don't have pain there but it's still sore, like if I lean on the counter or press on it with my fingers. And it's not the incision but above it under the skin. It feels hard too, scar tissue I guess.
And sorry but it did feel like being a virgin again (I was on bedrest too). Only I don't remember it being so pronounced way back then. I felt like I had been sewn up down there and it burned afterwards. Being on top and lube didn't help that either. It's getting better though just not the same. I think you just have to try slowly, be on the same page (you shouldn't be afraid he'll hurt you) and give it time.
