Nobody really tells you how bad L&D is and how awful the recovery actually is. So ladies, spill it. If you have already DTD pp, how was it? Really. Please don't hold back.

    haven't yet this time. but with my first it hurt like the first time. :( once we got going it was ok but those first few minutes every time hurt for a while. 

    breastfeeding hormones make the tissues not as stretchy and interfere with lubrication. lube up. go slow. it'll get better.

    We haven't yet this time, but last time wasn't too bad. However, I had a c-section so that would definitely change things over a vaginal birth (and since you didn't specify which you had, I figured I'd respond anyways). I was reallllly dry from breastfeeding and hormone changes so that was where the pain came from. Things also felt tighter which I don't understand. Use lots of lube!

    With dd, we couldn't successfully dtd until I got an estrogen cream to use.  It was a long time - about 4 months pp I got the RX I think.  Then it was possible, but not enjoyable for me until dd started cutting down on the nursing sessions around 1 yr old.

    We haven't tried yet this time.  But I plan to ask the OB for a RX at my appointment next week just in case.  That way I can get it filled if it seems like it's a repeat of last time without having to make another appointment and go back later on.
