DTD after c section?

mrsdahammmrsdahamm member
in March 2014 Moms
This question is on the c section board, but I wanted to see how my M14 ladies would weigh in.

DH keeps saying "No one waits the whole 6 weeks!" (Insert whiny voice). But no one we know well enough to talk about that has had a c section.

How long did you wait after your c section to dtd?

    Tell DH to suck it up... Your health and comfort are more important than his libido ;)

    geesh... vaginal birth or c/s... I would punch him in the balls if he was pressuring me and wasn't respecting my PHYSICAL need to let my body heal until I was comfortable DTD!

    I guess I should add: more than anything he likes to torture me. He knows that historically I really like sex, so he thinks it's fun to tempt me. But I just went off on him that I'm not abstaining because I want to, it's because I have to.

    I've seen people come to our ER for complications and heavy bleeding after having sex before the 6-8 week mark

    I waited exactly 6wks and it hurt like hell. I wasn't prepared for that since I didn't have a vag birth. If you BF it can dry you out. Took a few months before it was pleasant again.

    Curious; hurt your vagina? Or the incision?

    My vagina. Get lube.


    Yes--lots and lots of lube!!!

    The site where the placenta detached from your uterus is an open wound. Sex can introduce germs that can lead to infection. Hence the 6 weeks rule. Tell him to suck it up!

    With my past 2 vaginal deliveries 3 months. this one will probably be the same. I just tell H that is what he gets for me having to do all of the restrictions for the whole 9 months of pregnancy. He understands though, or if he didn't he didn't say anything lol

    We didn't wait, but once we tried we ended up waiting a little after the six weeks. It hurt SO bad. I thought I was 100% ready, and was not!!

    We didn't have sex for 8 months after getting pregnant - and when we did, I initiated.  He can suck it up and deal.  And you shouldn't have to give him a BJ to shut him up. 


    RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
    You made my wedding day complete.

    We waited the whole 6 weeks, but I was bleeding that whole time, too, so it was easier.

    We waited prob 8 weeks and it didn't work the first couple tries because it hurt so bad. This was with a shit ton of lube too. It was quite a while before I would even say it was comfortable let alone enjoyable. You are a way better person than I am offering up a BJ. I agree with @karib509, I'd have told him he is welcome to suck it himself! I have zero sympathy for men's 'needs' after what a woman has just gone through with pregnancy and childbirth!

    We waited the 6 weeks. Then we were pregnant again. Surprise!

    My doctor told me that's when women are most fertile.

    So you're saying in addition to lots of lube, add in lots of barrier contraceptives?!
