Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Anyone nervous about doing the deed again after D&C?

I'm just curious because I am. The doctor said to wait 2 weeks after the surgery to start having sex again and I have a few days left but I'm weirdly nervous about it because it's like I'm afraid it'll hurt for some reason or be tender or something. I know it's weird but anyone else have these feelings? Am I the only one? lol

Re: Anyone nervous about doing the deed again after D&C?

  • I think it's totally normal to be nervous. FWIW I didn't experience any pain or tenderness. It's weird, but also nice to get some normalness back. But if you need more time, that's ok, too.

  • I don't think it's weird at all. Although I didn't have D&C's with mine, I felt the same way.

    As a side note, I was also emotional as hell afterwards and I cried. They may be weird lol
    I am not sure how to say this without getting a "solicitation" warning so I guess I just say that I am not longer active on THIS site.

  • I was told to wait 6 weeks after mine. I wonder why the difference??

    Anyway....I'm kinda glad for the long wait because I am also scared, lol. You are not alone!
  • Definitely not alone!  I was thinking about that yesterday.

  • I was told 3 weeks.  I imagine the first time we'll be taking it a little slow to make sure there's no issues.  
  • I have 5 days left and I'm a little nervous. We were on pelvic rest for almost 6 wks before my miscarriage, now the 2wk wait after d&c. I have this feeling I'm going to be fragile emotionally and physically, but I'm probably being a little silly.

  • Yes I am definitely scared!. I haven't told my bf, maybe I should. I had so much bleeding during my pregnancy and after the miscarriage/ D&C that it's already been months. I'm not in any rush at the moment.
  • I recently had a miscarriage/d&c and I was told to wait two weeks as well. Also I've heard that it's ideal to wait until you have your next period before ttc again. When I saw my doctor (yesterday which was 16 days after the d&c) she said that medically we were fine to start trying again as long as we were mentally okay. She didn't mention anything about waiting for a period either! So we did the deed last night and I was nervous at first but nothing hurt, not even the initial entry, and it was just like it was before! =) The main thing is to be mentally prepared before you do it again and the physical part will fall into place!
  • I'm not scared....just wondering has anyone stop completely bleeding yet? I have 4 more days and hope the bleeding will be gone so I can do the deed.
  • I am very afraid! But my MC was just on friday so I am still in pain and bleeding and emotionally just a wreck. I am craving the comfort it will bring but I guess I just cant imagine anything even coming close to my lady parts right now. Praying that part will pass soon and this emotional roller coaster will slow itself down.
