I had an episiotomy and sex is still very uncomfortable. Anyone else? I just want to be able to actually enjoy it and not cringe at the thought of it. I thought the more it happened the easier it would be but no such luck
I guess it also doesn't help that the wonderful hemorrhoids are back in full effect. When does this all end???!!!
Re: PP recovery
But yeah, I'm not in a huge rush to get back to our normal sex routine honestly. I'm so tired all the time, if I have extra time in the evening I want to use it sleeping.
I wasn't told how much I tore either, but I know I needed a lot of stitches. We had successful sex the first time last week! I'm glad to know it isn't just me. It was painful but once we finally got going it wasn't too bad, just uncomfortable. I'm breastfeeding and have no sex drive whatsoever and I feel like I never will again!

I ended up buying a numbing lube that is advertised as an anal lube. It has really helped take the sharp pain out. I can actually enjoy sex more now.
