Really missing intimacy!


I am counting down the days until I can have sex with my husband again. I really miss it! Has anyone been able to before 6 weeks?!

I tried at 5 weeks, and was pretty tender. When I went for my 6 week check up my doctor did an internal and I still had a few stitches that hadn't fully healed yet. He said it'd be another week for them to heal, and to wait another week to try having sex again. We just did this morning and it was much better than the last time I tried!

So we waited 8 weeks in total. Not by my choice though. I had minor tearing, and that's it. No epistiotomy (sp?) or anything like that.

Err...1 week 6 days.
But I had no tearing, and she was early and small.
And I really, really wanted it.

I have sort of asked in a round about way to my midwife and even with my c section looks like its 6 weeks wait, or 5 as William is a week old. And for some reason I am dam horny! never felt that way through the pregancy but now I do.

4 weeks for us but was a little sore. Is fine now though. Why dont you , ahem, try other methods of intimacy? Oscar is in his cot at the foot of our bed so we do other stuff more than having sex as i am worried about waking him up!
