The f irst time you had sex since you had your baby ... how did it feel? Me and DH did it the other night and it hurt like heck! We stopped doin it a few weeks before I had my baby, and she was 2 1/2 months when we did. So I guess it had been 3 months. Did it hurt for u girls also?

Well, I had a c-section, so I didn't have pain there, just pain from the incision when my husband forgot and put his weight on my stomach.

It was really painful for me too.We tried twice.It's been 2 months since the last time we tried not only cuz it's so painful, we're just really scared of getting pregnant again.But I'm really missing it right now.

ya it hurt for about 3 months, kinda felt like rug burn even with lube. Now at 4 months pp Im good to go and its great! We kept at it right up till the night before I gave birth and kinda strange I felt more sexual then than I do now. Kinda hard to get in the mood when I feel just fat now, I miss my pregnant body.

I did it 11 days after I had ben and it didn't hurt at all. I just find it hard to get turned on. If I have sex when I'm not turned on it hurts a bit.

still hurts for me and my son is 5 months....

i had sex 5 weeks post-partum and now at almost 10 weeks it can still feel as uncomfortabel as the first time unless i'm really turned on or if we use lube.

My daughter is 7 months old and it still hurts. I'm seeing my doctor about it - but the waiting time is 3 months to see a specialist! I have to wait until February, when my daughter will be 9 months old. I'm going nuts...!!

It HURT at 6 weeks PP, and was very uncomfortable until around 15 weeks PP.. I had some tearing in the front, not sure how big a difference that made, but still, over a year later, that area is NOT a nice place to "play" although with tons of lube and foreplay ( luckily hubby loves that) things have gotten kind of back to normal.

Thanks for all the replies. I feel much better =)

I had a c-section and it still hurt like hell! I was warned of dryness due to nursing but man! Like someone else said, felt like rugburn up there!

we had sex 10 days after Trinity was born and it kind-of hurt....burned....but it's ok now (it will be 12 weeks Wed.) I do however have a hard time getting turned-on too, but it's weird bc I WANT to make love,just have trouble hitting my "peak"...lol.... my boobs don't do the trick like they use to...maybe bc of bf ing??


Rachael mommy2lucas - January 2nd, 2006 11:47 AM

It still burns and hurts 4 mos pp. And my boobs are still super sensitive, and I do not bf. Rugburn, definitely is what it feels like


Ginger - January 2nd, 2006 1:57 PM

My son is 5 months now. It did hurt tons at first. I'm having a hard time "peaking" as well. I use to every time! HELP! What do you think is going on? Why could I use to but can't now? Getting a bit frustrated!


xXx-Lesley-xXx - January 2nd, 2006 2:04 PM

Snap barb!! I can not get turned on no more! Last time I did was New years Eve, but once we started I tensed up and had to stop.


Mia D - January 2nd, 2006 5:04 PM

We waited about 5 weeks. It stung a bit at first but is ok now.
