Scared to have sex... Advice?

Exactly six weeks PP today, and I am not looking forward to it at all. It became so painful towards the end of my pregnancy, we've not DTD in a couple months already. I was relieved when my dr told me to wait another week...

My husband has been so patient and understanding, and we used to have sex 4-5 times a week before it became so uncomfortable. I want to to want it, but fear is outweighing desire right now.

Anyone else struggle with this? What helped you work through it, both physically and emotionally? How long did it take to become "normal" again?

    For me, when I was tense because I was afraid it would hurt then it was more painful. What worked for me was getting relaxed as possible first (maybe with a help of a drink). We also wouldn't continue if it hurt. It only took a few times to feel normal again. Good luck!

    I was also very nervous. To the point where I was almost in tears before we even did anything! What worked for me was making sure my husband knew how nervous I was. he told me we could stop at any time if it got too painful. It ended up being not that bad! I was really shocked. I would suggest using a lot of kyube to ease you into things.
